6.4 Sensor Controller

The Sensor Controller contains circuitry that can be selectively enabled in standby mode. The peripherals in this domain may be controlled by the Sensor Controller Engine, which is a proprietary power-optimized CPU. This CPU can read and monitor sensors or perform other tasks autonomously; thereby significantly reducing power consumption and offloading the main CM3 CPU.

A PC-based development tool called Sensor Controller Studio is used to write, test, and debug code for the Sensor Controller. The tool produces C driver source code, which the System CPU application uses to control and exchange data with the Sensor Controller. Typical use cases may be (but are not limited to) the following:

  • Analog sensors using integrated ADC
  • Digital sensors using GPIOs with bit-banged I2C or SPI
  • Capacitive sensing
  • Waveform generation
  • Pulse counting
  • Key scan
  • Quadrature decoder for polling rotational sensors

The peripherals in the Sensor Controller include the following:

  • The low-power clocked comparator can be used to wake the device from any state in which the comparator is active. A configurable internal reference can be used with the comparator. The output of the comparator can also be used to trigger an interrupt or the ADC.
  • Capacitive sensing functionality is implemented through the use of a constant current source, a time-to-digital converter, and a comparator. The continuous time comparator in this block can also be used as a higher-accuracy alternative to the low-power clocked comparator. The Sensor Controller takes care of baseline tracking, hysteresis, filtering, and other related functions.
  • The ADC is a 12-bit, 200-ksamples/s ADC with 8 inputs and a built-in voltage reference. The ADC can be triggered by many different sources, including timers, I/O pins, software, the analog comparator, and the RTC.
  • The analog modules can be connected to up to eight different GPIOs (see Table 6-1).

The peripherals in the Sensor Controller can also be controlled from the main application processor.
