... In addition to the standard terminal functions (send file, receive file, change baud rate), two GPIO pins on the target microcontroller can be controlled using the Terminal for either RTS/CTS handshaking or software-configurable purposes (see the demo software for an example). The software is available on the ToolStick webpage (www.silabs.com/toolstick). ToolStick-CapTouchSenseDC Rev. 0.2 5 ...

... ToolSt ick-CapTouchSenseDC 6. ToolStick CapTouchSense Daughter Card Memory Game Demo The ToolStick CapTouchSense Daughter Card is pre-loaded with a memory game firmware that can be played without connecting to the ToolStick Base Adapter. When disconnected from the ToolStick Base Adapter, the daughter card may be powered from the included A76 alkaline battery. When connected to a ToolStick Base Adapter, the daughter card can be powered from the USB port ...

... This section describes how to play the memory game using the capacitive touch sense switches on the CapTouchSenseDC. The objective of the game is to remember a sequence of lights and press the corresponding switches. As the player correctly presses the sequence of switches and advances to the next level, the number of switch presses in a sequence increases ...

... ToolSt ick-CapTouchSenseDC 7. ToolStick CapTouchSense Daughter Card Example Code The ToolStick kit includes two code examples. One of them is titled CapTouchSenseDC_SwitchSensitivity. This example can be used by a new user to learn the features and capabilities of the IDE and the microcontroller’s on- chip debug capabilities. A ToolStick Base Adapter is required to be able to download code to the daughter card and perform debugging ...

... All four LEDs will light up to indicate that the calibration is complete and the game is ready to be played. 8. Additional Demo Examples In addition to the CapTouchSenseDC_SwitchSensitivity example firmware, the ToolStick download package also includes another example project named CapTouchSenseDC_Memory_Game. The instructions for running this example can be found at the top of the source file. ...

... ToolSt ick-CapTouchSenseDC 10. Capacitive Touch Sense Switches The capacitive touch sensitive switches on the CapTouchSenseDC are implemented as relaxation oscillators, with the PCB trace forming the touch-sensitive capacitive element. The relaxation oscillator is constructed using the on- chip analog comparator, on-chip resistors in the C8051F931 MCU. The on-chip analog multiplexer allows multiple switches to be operated using one comparator. See Application Note “ ...
