Introduce the waterproof and noise immunity of ML56 touch key. Hello! Everyone! I am Nuvoton FAE Tim. Today, I will show you the waterproof and noise immunity of ML56 touch key. First introduce the waterproof and noise immunity of ML56 touch key. Good waterproof function, support finger touch with 2 mm depth water droplet. IEC 61000-4-6 conducted noise immunity (CNI) with 10 Vrms noise voltage. Next, we will explain the related parameter settings of the ML56 touch key, and first explain the touch sensitivity. #Pulse Width (Touch key sensing pulse width time control) Touch key sensitivity can be adjusted by setting Pulse Width properly, shorter Pulse Width setting comes with poor sensitivity and less power-consumption, vice versa. Then explain the stability of touch performance, Part 1. #Times (Touch key sensing times control) Touch key raw data stability can be adjusted by setting Times properly, shorter Times setting comes with poor raw data stability and less power-consumption, vice versa. Stability of touch performance, Part 2. #IIR (IIR filter) IIR filter can control the ratio of current raw data and previous one. User can enable IIR Filter to be against noise. It will increase the touch response time when enables IIR Filter. Stability of touch performance, Part 3. #Debounce (Touch key debounce) Touch key stability can be adjusted by setting Debounce properly, the debounce times for touch key entry (on) and release (off) detection, shorter Debounce setting comes with faster touch response time, vice versa. Stability of touch performance, Part 4. #Trace Baseline (Baseline is generated by “Calibration”) Touch key auto environment compensation is an algorithm that baseline tracking each touch key automatically at power-up and keeps compensating environment variation affects touch key performance during runtime. Based on the above parameter description, the following introduces the waterproof and noise immunity parameter settings. The first is waterproof parameter setting. Good waterproof function, support finger touch with 2 mm depth water droplet. Touch key system parameters are shown in the table Pulse Width = 500 ns Times = 128 Next is the noise immunity parameter setting IEC 61000-4-6 conducted noise immunity (CNI) with 10 Vrms noise voltage. Touch key system parameters are shown in the table. Pulse Width = 2 us Times = 128 IIR New = 6, Old = 2 Debounce Entry = 1, Release = 1 Then we use the ML56 NuMaker Board to show you the waterproof function of the touch key. Dip the finger in water first, and then touch the touch key. Repeat the above actions, we can see that the touch key still works normally and is not affected. Finally, we use the ML56 NuMaker Board to show you the noise immunity ability of the touch key.

Hello! Everyone! I am Nuvoton FAE Tim. Today, I will show you ML56 Capacitive Touch Key PCB Design. First introduce the Touch Sensor Channel Selection. Touch Sensor Channels. ML56 series supports up to 14 touch sensor channels. #Reference Sensor It is recommended to select one reference sensor at touch sensor channel TK7 or TK14. Maximize the distance between the reference sensor and other signals to minimize crosstalk. #Shield Electrodes Put the shield electrode around the touch sensor to get better signal quality and waterproof capability. Recommended to select shield channel at touch TK0, TK4 or clock out pins (P3.2 / P4.6 / P5.7). Next, we will explain the PCB Layout Rules. #Touch Key Shapes Recommended to have a 10 x 10 mm sensor area for good touch key sensitivity. Larger touch sensor electrode work better for thicker cover. #Reference Sensor Recommended to assign the reference key at touch channel TK7 or TK14. Maximize the distance to other signals to minimize crosstalk. Round shape electrode with 1 mm diameter size is enough for normal case. #Ground Plane It is recommended that the traces of the touch key have a good hatched ground plane surround. It is recommended to have hatched ground plane under the touch keys. Hatched ground plane with 6 mil trace and 50 mil grid. #Shield Electrode Put touch keys with shield electrode around which provides the same phase signal around touch keys. Hatched shield electrode with 6 mil trace and 50 mil grid. Shield electrode area needs to keep filled around the touch key in greater than 10 mm width. Finally, explain the Touch Key Cover Thickness. As the cover thickness increases, the touch key sensitivities will decrease. Larger touch key size work better for thicker cover. Recommended touch key diameter size with difference acrylic cover thickness as shown in the table. That's all for today's video, thank you everyone!

Hello! Everyone! I am Nuvoton FAE Tim. Today, I will show you ML56 Capacitive Touch Key Technology. First introduce the Capacitive Touch Key Fundamentals. The capacitance of the sensor without a finger touch is called as “parasitic capacitance”, CP. Parasitic capacitance results from the electric field between the sensor (including the sensor pad and traces) and other conductors in the system such as the ground planes, traces, any metal in the product’s chassis or enclosure, etc. The capacitance between the sensor pad and the finger is CF. The total capacitance CT of the sensor is the sum of CP and CF. Next, we will explain the ML56 Capacitive Touch Key Sensing Method. ML56 implements two switching capacitor banks for injecting charges to CP (or CT) and CR. CR is the parasitic capacitance of reference channel. After touch key calibration, CP and CR are balanced with CB and CCB (comparator output is “low”). Touch the sensing touch key which makes CT = CP + CF Now the negative input terminal voltage of the comparator is lower than positive side and comparator output is “high”. ML56 touch key controller will increase CCB to CCB’ to balance CT and CR again (comparator output is “low”). A finger touch can be detected by checking the difference of CCB and CCB’. By comparing the CCB’ shift level from CCB, the steady state to a predetermined threshold, the algorithm can determine whether the touch key is in ON (Touch) or OFF (No Touch) state.

Hello, everyone! I'm Chris, Field Application Engineer from Nuvoton Technology. Today, I will introduce you how to design NuMicro M251/ M252 application circuit. Let's start with the power application circuit of M251/M252. The external power should add 10uF and 0.1uF decoupling capacitors, and the capacitor should be placed close to the source of the external power supply. Before the external power enters the VDD/VDDIO/VBAT of the IC, 0.1uF bypass capacitors should be added separately, and the capacitors should be placed close to the IC. Before the external power enters the AVDD, the bead should be connected in series for filtering, and then 1uF, 0.1uF, and 0.01uF bypass capacitors should be added. The bead and capacitors should be placed close to the IC. Before connecting AVDD to VREF, first, connect the bead in series for filtering, and then add 2.2uF, 1uF, and 470pF bypass capacitors. The bead and capacitors should be placed close to the IC. A 1uF bypass capacitor should be added to the internal LDO power supply of the IC, and the capacitor should be placed close to the IC. AVSS and VSS should be connected in series with a bead for filtering. USB_VBUS should be connected in series with a 10-ohm resistor to enhance the ability of USB to resist EFT interference. USB_D+ and USB_D- should be connected in series with 27-ohm resistors for impedance matching. USB_VCC33_CAP needs to add a 1uF bypass capacitor. ICE_DAT and ICE_CLK should be connected to 100K ohm pull-up resistors. The two ends of the high-speed and low-speed crystal oscillators should be connected with an equivalent capacitance of 20pF to VSS. I2C_SCL and I2C_SDA should be connected to 4.7K ohm pull-up resistors. nRESET should be connected to a 10K ohm pull-up resistor and a 10 uF capacitor to VSS. The internal LDO power supply of the IC needs to add a 1 uF bypass capacitor, and the capacitor should be placed close to the IC. In addition, reference circuits for EBI, UART, SPI, and Audio are provided. VDD is connected to 4~32 MHz crystal oscillator, POR33, Power On Control, 5V to 1.5V LDO, IO Cell... and other circuits inside the IC. Among them, GPIO PF.4 to PF.6 and PA.0 to PA.5 output, the high level is equal to VDD. Vbus is connected to the USB 1.1 PHY inside the IC. This 1.5V regulator will provide 1.5V for Digital Logic, SRAM, Flash, POR15, LIRC, MIRC, HIRC... and so on. Vbat is connected to internal 1.5V RTC_LDO and provides 1.5V voltage for RTC, 32.768 kHz crystal oscillator, IO Cell PF.6. VDDIO is connected to some IO cell for use, and the output high level of PA.0 to PA.5 is equal to VDDIO. AVDD is connected to the analog circuit inside the IC, and VREF is the reference voltage of the analog circuit. That's all for the hardware design of the NuMicro M251/M252 series instruction.

Hello everyone, I am Chris, the field application engineer from Nuvoton Technology. Today I will introduce the power modes of the M251/M252 series microcontroller. The M251/M252 series has multiple power modes. The differentiation is based on power consumption, wake-up time, the operable CPU, and peripherals. In normal mode, the CPU is running normally. In Idle mode, only the CPU clock is disabled while other peripherals work as usual. Normal mode and idle mode can be divided into high-efficiency high-speed PL0 mode and low-power low-speed PL3 mode according to CPU operating speed. We should note that in the low-speed PL3 mode, only the clock source of the CPU and peripherals is 32.768 or 38.4 kHz can run. In power-down mode, there are three types according to power consumption. The first is NPD (Normal Power Down Mode). The CPU and high-speed peripherals stop running, and only the low-speed peripherals can work normally. The second is FWPD (Fast Wake Up Power Down Mode), which is the fastest wake-up of the three power-down modes but consumes more power. The third is DPD (Deep Power Down Mode), which consumes the lowest power among the three power-down modes, but the data in the RAM cannot be retained, and the wake-up speed is the slowest. Specific peripherals or pins can only activate the wake-up. For power consumption and wake-up time, we list the corresponding data. Users can choose the most suitable power mode according to the required power consumption and wake-up time. We need to note that FWPD mode will consume more power in the power-down mode because this mode wakes up the fastest. The DPD mode is the least power consumption, but the longest wake-up time.， Also, normal mode is a normal working mode, so there is no need to wake up. The time unit of the idle mode is different from the power-down mode, which is five cycles. The length of a cycle is determined according to the operating frequency used by the system. In the related resources section, we provide application notes for power management, which have more detailed operations and descriptions. If you want to know more, please download it from the URL in the video. There are also various power mode entry and wake-up methods in the BSP package; you can also refer to and use it. That’s all for the power modes introduction. Thank you for watching it. Please subscribe to our channel for more video resources.
