SX8661

Low Power, Capacitive Button Touch and Proximity Controller

(8 sensors) with LED Drivers and Analog Output

3.18.2 GPO Dual Reporting

GPIOs configured as GPO will operate as digital outputs which can generate both standard low/high logic levels

and PWM low/high duty cycles levels. Typical application is LED ON/OFF control. This is the dual reporting mode.

The SX8661 offers additionally a triple reporting mode which allows the reporting of proximity by a medium strong

LED intensity (section 3.18.5).

Transitions between ON and OFF states can be triggered either automatically in Autolight mode or manually by

the host. This is illustrated in figures below.

Additionally these transitions can be configured to be done with or without fading following a logarithmic or linear

function. This is illustrated in figures below.
