Capacitive sensors

The STMPE1208S capacitive sensor is based on fully digital, impedance change detection

engine that is capable of detecting very small change in capacitance.

Capacitive sensing

The STMPE1208S senses a human touch by the additional capacitance introduced to the

pad (with respect to ground). This capacitance causes a delay in a clock signal on the

sensing pad, and the delay in the sensing pad is compared with a reference clock and the

difference is a direct representation of the additional capacitance introduced by the

proximity/touch of finger.
