Response time, T
RES,
is the amount of time the CY8CMBR2044 takes to produce a valid signal on GPOx after CSx
senses a TOUCH state. The CY8CMBR2044 device has two different response times. The first is the time it takes to
respond when the device wakes up from low power mode:
Equation 6
Where:
T
R
= Scan Rate
And the second is the time it takes to respond to any subsequent TOUCH after it wakes up, 80 ms.
Scan Time (T
S
)
Approximate scan time can be calculated using:
Equation 7
Where:
K
CSX
= button sensitivity constant for CSx.
