BOOSTXL-CAPKEYPAD: Changing the proximity range (threshold)

Part Number: BOOSTXL-CAPKEYPAD

Team,

I’m having is adjusting the proximity threshold. Changing the value in the below window doesn’t seem to do anything. Is there anything else I need to change to increase or decrease the proximity range?

Thanks.

  • Hello Chris,

    I cannot see the image that you uploaded.

    But to increase the proximity range you can increase the Conversion Count (Figure 1) or lower the Proximity Threshold(Figure 2).

    Make sure you click apply and also to update the code if you want the configuration to be saved.

    You should also consider the reliability of your system when change the proximity range because you do not want the noise from your system or from the environment to false trigger your proximity sensor. Here is a great app note for your reference: www.ti.com/.../slaa843.pdf

    Thanks,
