Abstract:
A capacitive sensing system includes a controller, a node connected to one side of a capacitance, the controller configured to measure the capacitance by measuring a time for a voltage across the capacitance to reach a predetermined reference voltage, a noise measurement circuit configured to measure electrical noise on the node, and the controller receiving the measurement of noise from the noise measurement circuit.

Claim (Index 11):
A method of capacitive sensing, the method comprising:\n charging, by at least one switch, a variable capacitance for a first period of time by at least one current source, in response to a controller, wherein the variable capacitance is coupled to a node, and wherein the at least one switch is coupled between the at least one current source and the node; discharging, by the at least one switch, the variable capacitance for a second period of time, by the at least one current source, in response to the controller; charging, by the at least one switch, the variable capacitance for a third period of time, by the at least one current source, in response to the controller, wherein the third period of time is different than the first period of time; and discharging, by the at least one switch, the variable capacitance for a fourth period of time, by the at least one current source, in response to the controller, wherein the fourth period of time is different than the second period of time.
