Figure 4. MPR121 Electrode Measurement Charging Pad Capacitance

When measuring capacitance there are some inherent restrictions due to the methodology used. On the MPR121 the voltage

after charging must be in the range that is shown in Figure 5.

Figure 5.

The valid operating range of the electrode charging source is 0.7 V to (VDD - 0.7 V). This means that for a given VDD the valid

ADC (voltage visible to the digital interface) range is given by

Equation 3

and

Equation 4

These equations are represented in the graph. In the nominal case of VDD = 1.8 V the ADC range is shown below in Table 7.
