Abstract
A touch detection system in accordance with one embodiment of the invention can include a circuit for converting a capacitance to a digital value. The touch detection system can include first and second communication interface circuits for enabling a first and second communication protocols, respectively. Furthermore, the touch detection system can include a detector circuit coupled to the first communication interface circuit and the second communication interface circuit. The detector circuit can be for automatically detecting a factor that indicates automatically enabling the first communication interface circuit and automatically disabling the second communication interface circuit. The detector circuit can be for detecting a coupling of a pin of the first communication interface circuit that is not used by the second communication interface circuit.
