General Description
The CAP1114, which incorporates Microchip’s Right-
Touch
TM
technology, is a multiple channel Capacitive
Touch sensor and LED Driver.
The CAP1114 contains up to fourteen (14) individual
Capacitive Touch sensor inputs with programmable
sensitivity for use in touch button and slider switch
applications. Each sensor also contains automatic
recalibration with programmable time delays.
The CAP1114 also includes internal circuitry to com-
pensate for design and parasitic variance in un-
touched capacitance on sensors.
The CAP1114 also contains eleven (11) low side LED
drivers that offer full-on / off, variable rate blinking, dim-
ness controls, and breathing. Capacitive buttons can
be linked to LED outputs.

TO OUR VALUED CUSTOMERS
It is our intention to provide our valued customers with the best documentation possible to ensure successful use of your Microchip
products. To this end, we will continue to improve our publications to better suit your needs. Our publications will be refined and
enhanced as new volumes and updates are introduced.
If you have any questions or comments regarding this publication, please contact the Marketing Communications Department via
E-mail at
docerrors@microchip.com
. We welcome your feedback.
Most Current Data Sheet
To obtain the most up-to-date version of this data sheet, please register at our Worldwide Web site at:
http://www.microchip.com
You can determine the version of a data sheet by examining its literature number found on the bottom outside corner of any page.
The last character of the literature number is the version number, (e.g., DS30000000A is version A of document DS30000000).
Errata
An errata sheet, describing minor operational differences from the data sheet and recommended workarounds, may exist for cur-
rent devices. As device/documentation issues become known to us, we will publish an errata sheet. The errata will specify the
revision of silicon and revision of document to which it applies.
To determine if an errata sheet exists for a particular device, please check with one of the following:
• Microchip’s Worldwide Web site;
http://www.microchip.com
• Your local Microchip sales office (see last page)
When contacting a sales office, please specify which device, revision of silicon and data sheet (include -literature number) you are
using.

DELTA FROM CAP1014 TO CAP1114
1.1
Summary
1.
Updated circuitry to reduce sensitivity to power supply stepping.
2.
Updated LED Pulse 1 behavior. This function may be triggered on button press or on release. See
Section 6.50
.
3.
Updated Product ID to 3Ah.
4.
Updated LED behavior for host control during direct mode when not linked. The LED Output register will now be
able to be written to emulate a touch or release. Enables all behaviors while in host mode. See
Section 6.44
and
Section 6.48
.
5.
Updated recalibration controls to add negative delta count. See
Section 6.28
.
6.
Removed ACAL_RT bits.
7.
Added digital controls to disable the slider functionality but still detect basic touches essentially bypassing the
slider algorithms entirely. See
Section 6.34
.
8.
Added controls to enable individual buttons in the slider. See
Section 6.35
.
9.
Updated button interrupt schemes to allow interrupt on press only, not on release. Retained previous behavior
as default. See
Figure 5-2
,
Figure 5-3
, and
Section 5.7.1
. Retained previous behavior as default. See
Section 6.28
.
10. Updated Noise Threshold default settings to ~25%. See
Section 6.30
.
11. Added control bit and status registers to enable interrupt when LEDs finish their directed behavior in the same
fashion. See
Section 6.53
and
Section 6.40
.
12. Updated LED driver duty cycle decode values to have more distribution at lower values - closer to a logarithmic
curve. See
Section 6.54
.
13. Renamed D_DSP[3:0] and C_DSP[3:0] to DELTA_SENSE[2:0] and BASE_SHIFT[3:0]. D_DSP[3] did nothing so
removed references. See
Section 6.13
.
14. Added filtering on RESET pin to prevent errant resets. The RESET pin must be high or low for longer than 10ms
before it will be detected by the device. See
Section 8.6
.
15. Added proximity to CS1 channel.
16. Updated Deep Sleep to wake on communications. See
Section 5-1
.
17. Updated controls so that the RESET pin assertion places the device into the lowest power state available. See
Section 5.2
and
Section 5.1
.
18. Added LED transition controls that affect the LED behavior when a Capacitive Touch Sensor is linked to an LED
channel to remove bouncing. See
Section 6.46
.
19. Added controls to “mirror” the LED duty cycle outputs so that when polarity changed, the LED brightness levels
look right. See
Section 6.47
.
20. Added register to force digital recalibration of all sensors. See
Section 6.33
.
21. Added register to enable oversampling on specific sensors. See
Section 6.36
and
Section 6.38
.
22. Changed PWM frequency for LED drivers. The PWM frequency was derived from the programmed breathe
period and duty cycle settings and it ranged from ~4Hz to ~8000 Hz. The PWM frequency has been updated to
be a fixed value of ~2000Hz.

ELECTRICAL SPECIFICATIONS
Note 3-1
For the 5V tolerant pins that have a pull-up resistor, the pull-up voltage must not exceed 3.6V when
the device is unpowered.
Note 3-2
The Package Power Dissipation specification assumes a thermal via design with the thermal landing
be soldered to the PCB ground plane with 0.3mm (12mil) diameter vias in a 4x4 matrix at 0.9mm
(35.4mil) pitch.
Note 3-3
Junction to Ambient (
JA
) is dependent on the design of the thermal vias. Without thermal vias and
a thermal landing, the
JA
is approximately 60°C/W including localized PCB temperature increase.
