Part Number: MSP430FR2633
Captivate team,
Can you help come up with an estimate of standby power consumption for an application? We need to have at least 1 electrode used for a proximity sense. There will also be a set of touch buttons (10 to 12). Standby power consumption is critical and must be minimized. The device needs to wake up on a proximity event with the longest range possible.
I'm assuming the MSP430FR2633 will be used to allow for enough self capacitance buttons, but it's not a requirement to have self instead of mutual. If it's lower power to do 1 self capacitance prox electrode, and the rest as mutual capacitance, we can do that.
Our datasheet says 1.7uA/button average in standby. I believe this is based on a minimum number of pins (maybe 4). How will the other factors I've given above affect the standby power consumption?
Thanks,
Darren
