Zusammenfassung:Embodiments herein describe input devices that include receivers for sampling capacitive sensing signals that perform continuous-time demodulation. An input device is provided that includes a plurality of sensor electrodes in a sensing region of the input device and a processing system coupled to the plurality of sensor electrodes and configured to generate a first measurement of a capacitive sensing signal acquired using a first sensor electrode of the plurality of sensor electrodes during a first time period, that comprises effects of a first modulated signal driven onto at least one of the plurality of sensor electrodes, the first measurement generated at a first sensing frequency based on a clock signal; periodically dither the clock signal; and adjust a demodulation frequency based on the dithered clock signal to generate a second measurement of the capacitive sensing signal during a second time period at the first sensing frequency based on the dithered clock signal.
