The Automatic Frequency Adaptation (AFA) section allows you to enable the advanced noise immunity algorithm. The automatic frequency adaptation routine continuously tracks the amount of noise that is on each sensor and chooses a new scan frequency intelligently to avoid noise frequency and its harmonics. The routine requires an 8-bit timer to precisely control the scanning frequency for non-ADCC parts implementation. Due to this requirement,mTouch^® will take ownership of the first available 8-bit timer module by default, if one is available when the automatic frequency adaptation routine is enabled.
