Detailed Description

The invention is described in further detail with reference to the following embodiments of the drawings.

The basic principle of the touch key is charge transfer, as shown in fig. 3, the distributed capacitance Cp on the touch sensing key is formed by the finger sensing capacitance Cf and the circuit capacitance Cx, the charge of the distributed capacitance Cp on the touch sensing key is transferred to the sensitivity adjustment capacitance Cadj in the process of touching the key, meanwhile, the timer counts the charging time TKCNT in the process of charge transfer until the voltage on the sensitivity adjustment capacitance Cadj reaches the preset reference voltage Vref, and the comparator is inverted to generate the interrupt flag bit.

When no key is pressed down, the distributed capacitance Cp is equal to the circuit capacitance Cx, and the time for transferring Cp charges to the sensitivity adjusting capacitance Cadj is the reference value of the charging time; when a key is pressed down, the distributed capacitance Cp is equal to the circuit capacitance Cx plus the finger sensing capacitance Cf; for reaching the same reference voltage Vref, the smaller the capacitance value of the distributed capacitance Cp, the longer the charging time, the larger the TKCNT value; the larger the value of the distributed capacitance Cp, the shorter the charging time, and accordingly, the smaller the value of TKCNT.

After the interrupt flag bit is generated, the interrupt program starts to read the charging time TKCNT, judges the variation of the charging time TKCNT value (namely the charging time TKCNT after the key is pressed is different from the charging time reference value when no key is pressed), starts the time counting of the pressed time duration of the key, considers that the key is pressed only when the variation of the charging time TKCNT reaches the set limit and the time duration reaches the preset time, and excludes the key touch possibly caused by external interference, so that the external interference resistance of the key is ensured, wherein the limit representing the pressed key can be set by the variation of the charging time TKCNT before and after the finger is pressed, so that the sensitivity of the key is ensured.

During the interruption process, the sensitivity adjusting capacitor Cadj is discharged, after the interruption process is completed, the lower key channels are opened, and the charge transfer is performed again, at this time, the charging initial voltage of the sensitivity adjusting capacitor Cadj is the voltage discharged last times, and the initial voltage is determined by the discharging time length of the sensitivity adjusting capacitor Cadj in the interruption process last times.

In order to avoid the fluctuation of the charging time TKCNT caused by the starting voltage of , this embodiment adopts a pure software control method, and methods for reducing the interference between the capacitive touch keys are designed, as shown in fig. 1 and fig. 2, the anti-interference processing method includes the following steps:

step , program start, initialize settings.

And step two, judging whether other interrupt flag bits are set or not, if so, executing a step , and if not, executing a step four.

And step three, entering other interrupt programs.

Step four, judging whether the key interruption flag bit is set, if so, executing a step , otherwise, executing a step six, wherein the method for judging whether the key interruption flag bit is set adopts the following method:

(4-1) whether the reference voltage on the sensitivity adjusting capacitor Cadj in the touch key circuit reaches a preset reference voltage Vref or not is judged, if so, the step is executed, and if not, the step is circulated, wherein the value range of the preset reference voltage Vref is 3V-5V;

and (4-2) reversing the comparator to generate a key interruption flag bit.

Step five, entering a key interruption program;

(5-1) clearing the key interruption zone bit;

(5-2) starting a timer, and timing the key-press duration;

(5-3) judging whether the key time duration reaches the preset key time duration Tb, if so, pressing the key, and executing the step , otherwise, pressing no key, and turning to the step six, wherein the value range of the preset key time duration Tb is 50-150 ms;

(5-4) resetting the timer and processing the key data;

and 5-5, obtaining the key value of the current key operation, and then executing the step six.

And step six, delaying time K, wherein K is the discharge delay time of the sensitivity adjusting capacitor Cadj.

And step seven, executing the key processing function and starting a lower key channel.

And step eight, executing other programs, and then returning to the step two.

In the present embodiment, a delay time K is set after the key interruption procedure, and the delay time K must satisfy the condition that the sensitivity adjustment capacitor Cadj is completely discharged, and generally, in the touch key circuit, adopts an RC discharge circuit as shown in fig. 3, and the RC discharge circuit satisfies the following formula:

V_t＝V_ref×exp(-T_over/RC)

wherein, V_tAdjusting the discharge voltage, V, of the capacitor Cadj for sensitivity_refFor generating a reference voltage for the key-off flag, T_overAdjusting the time for the capacitor Cadj to completely discharge for sensitivity; r is a discharge resistor, C is a discharge capacitor, and R and C jointly form a discharge circuit.

As can be seen from the above formula, the discharge voltage of the sensitivity adjustment capacitor Cadj can reach 0V only when the time reaches infinity, and the discharge voltage V of the sensitivity adjustment capacitor Cadj is set in practice_tThe value of 0.001V to 0.009V is complete discharge (the number of digits after the decimal point can be adjusted according to the precision requirement, and three digits after the decimal point are taken in the embodiment);

thus, when T_overSatisfies the following conditions:

when the time is over, the sensitivity adjusting capacitor Cadj is considered to be completely discharged, and the value range of the delay time K is only required to satisfy that K is more than or equal to T_overThe complete discharge of the sensitivity adjustment capacitor Cadj can be ensured.

According to the embodiment, a hardware structure does not need to be changed, the consumed time is short, the design cost is low, improvement is performed on software, after each time of key interruption program execution, the delay time K is further executed, and the voltage on the sensitivity adjusting capacitor Cadj is ensured to be completely discharged, so that the discharge voltage of the sensitivity adjusting capacitor Cadj is ensured to be the same, the initial voltage of times of key starting is , the fluctuation of the charging time TKCNT is effectively reduced, the problem of external interference of keys can be solved, the problem of mutual interference among touch keys can be solved, and the whole control method is simple and easy to implement.
