Offset errors, if any, are removed due to subtraction of the two measured voltages. The ratio of these two values removes the measurement path gain error. The error due to the reference resistor is reduced by using a precision resistance in series with the thermistor. CY8CKIT-014 PSoC 5 FirstTouch Starter Kit Guide, Spec. # 001-57708 Rev. **...
The CapSense component provides APIs, which report the centroid (relative position) of the finger on the slider based on the active sensors. The firmware then lights up the LED corresponding to this centroid position. CY8CKIT-014 PSoC 5 FirstTouch Starter Kit Guide, Spec. # 001-57708 Rev. **...
