A/D Converter for Touch Screen
The AK4180 incorporates a12-bit successive approximation resistor A/D converter for position measurement, temperature, and
battery voltage. The architecture is based on capacitive redistribution algorithm, and an internal capacitor array functions as the
sample/hold circuit.
The A/D converter output is a straight binary format as shown below:
Input Voltage
Output Code
FFF
(∆VREF-1.5LSB)~ ∆VREF

(∆VREF-2.5LSB) ~ (∆VREF-1.5LSB)
----------------0.5LSB ~ 1.5LSB
001
0 ~ 0.5LSB
000
∆VREF: (VREF+) – (VREF-)
Table 1 Output Code
The A/D converter’s full scale measurements depend on the input mode.
Analog Inputs
Analog input is selected via the A2, A1, A0 and SER/ DFR bits in the control register. If the analog inputs are the X or Y-axis,
use SER/ DFR = “0”, which means differential mode, the full scale (∆VREF) is the differential voltage between the non-inverting
terminal and the inverting terminal of the measured axis (e.g. (XP) – (XN)). Analog non-inverting input to A/D converter is the
non-inverting terminal of the non-measured axis while the inverting input is the inverting terminal of the measured axis. If the
SER/ DFR bit is set to “1”, which means single-ended mode, the full scale of A/D converter (∆VREF) is the internal reference
voltage, or external reference voltage. Note that SER/ DFR bit should be set to ”0” if IN2 is selected as analog input;
nevertheless, IN2 is actually measured by single-ended mode.
Tracking time is the period from the falling edge of 5th DCLK to the falling edge of 8th DCLK after the detection of START bit.
the required settling time to charge the internal capacitors depends on the source impedance. If the source impedance, Rin, is 600
ohm, the settling time needs at least 1.5 µs (3 tDCLK@2MHz). The maximum throughput of A/D converter is 125kHz.
If the source impedance of analog input is larger than 600 ohm, longer tracking time is required.
The Position Detection of Touch Screen
The selected touch screen position is detected by the voltage measurement of one axis when the voltage is supplied between the
two terminals of the other axis. At least two A/D conversions are needed to get the two-dimensional (X/Y axis) position.

Differential Mode
Figure 1 Axis Measurement
The differential mode position detection is typically more accurate than the single-ended mode. As the full scale of single-ended
mode is fixed to the internal (or external) reference voltage, input voltage may exceed the full-scale reference voltage. This
problem does not occur in differential mode. In addition to this, the differential mode is less influenced by power supply voltage
variation due to the ratio-metric measurement.
However, note that the touch screen driver switch is still ON and the current flows even for the A/D conversion time. On the other
hand, the touch screen driver switch is ON only for the tracking time, 3tDCLK. From the power consumption, single-ended mode
has more advantage.
The Pen Pressure Measurement
The touch screen pen pressure can be derived from the measurement of the contact resistor between two plates. The contact
resistance depends on the size of the depressed area and the pressure. The area of the spot is proportional to the contact resistance.
This resistance (Rtouch) can be calculated using two different methods.
The first method uses the total resistance of the X-plate sheet. The resistance, Rtouch, is calculated from the results of three
conversions, X-position, Z1-Position, and Z2-Position, using the following formula:
Rtouch = (Rxplate) * (Xposition/4096) * [ (Z2/Z1) – 1]
The second method uses the resistances of both the X-plate and Y-plate. The resistance, Rtouch, is calculated from the results of
three conversions, X-position, Y-Position, and Z1-Position, using the following formula:
Rtouch = (Rxplate*Xposition/4096)*[(4096/Z1) – 1] – Ryplate*[1 – (Yposition/4096)]

Voltage Reference
The AK4180 has an internal 2.5V voltage reference. This reference can be turned ON when PD1 = “1”, and OFF when PD1 = “0”.
This reference is used in the single-ended mode for the battery monitoring, temperature measurement, or for auxiliary input. A
0.1µF or larger capacitor should be connected for stable operation of the VREF circuit. Setting time depends on this external
capacitance, but 400µs or longer time is required if the external capacitance is 0.1µF.
If an external voltage reference is used, PD1 bit should be set to “0”.
Battery Measurement
The AK4180 can measure the battery voltage that is up to 5V directly while the AK4180 operates at 2.7V or 3.3V, etc. The input
voltage is internally divided down by 4. Minimum 5µs is required as tracking time. If the source impedance is large, more
tracking time is required.

Figure 4 Temperature Measurement
As the AK4180 has two different fixed current circuits and a diode, the temperature can be measured by using two different
methods.
The first method needs two conversions, but can derive the temperature directly without knowing the voltage at a specific
temperature.
From equation <1>
(iD2 / iD1) = exp{(v(NI) - v(I))/VT} N = (iD2 / iD1) = 82 (ratio of the current)
T°C = (∆Vbe * q)/(k * ln N) – 273
∆Vbe = V(NI) – V(I)
T°C = 2.63×103 × ∆Vbe – 273
The second method needs only one conversion as the following equation, but requires knowing the junction voltage at the specific
temperature.
T = (k/q)* vD/ln(iD/I0)

Power-down Control
Power-down is controlled by two bits, PD0 bit and PD1 bit. The power-down state of internal voltage reference is controlled by
PD1 bit, and is updated at the rising edge of 7th DCLK with CSN=”L”.
The power-down state of A/D converter, and touch screen driver switches is controlled by PD0 bit, and is updated at the rising
edge of 8th DCLK with CSN=”L”.
If PD0 bit is set to “1”, the state of the driver switches is maintained until the 5th DCLK↑ of the next conversion if CSN is “L”. If
CSN is “H”, all driver switches except for YN switch switches are turned off and are open states. Only YN driver switch is turned
ON and YN pin is forced to the ground in this case.

Function
Auto Power-down Mode.
A/D converter is automatically powered up at the initiation of the conversion, and goes to powerdown state automatically at the end of the conversion. And the AK4180 is always powered down at
this mode if CSN=”H”. All touch screen driver switches except for YN switch are turned off and
relative pins are open state. Only YN driver switch is turned ON and YN pin is forced to the ground
in this case. PEN interrupt function is enabled except for the tracking time and conversion time even
CSN=”L”. Please see “ PEN Interrupt” for the detail. The internal voltage reference is always
power-down state.
ADC ON Mode
A/D converter is always powered up while CSN = “L”. The internal voltage reference is always
power-down state. if X-axis or Y axis is selected as analog input, touch screen driver switches are
always turned ON and the current flows through the touch plate if CSN=”L”. This is effective if
more settling time for is required to suppress the electrical bouncing of touch plate.
VREF ON Mode
The internal voltage reference is always powered up regardless of CSN state. ADC is auto powerdown mode. PEN interrupt function is enabled at all the period except for the period from the
5DCLK↓ to 20DCLK↓ regardless of CSN state.
ADC and VREF ON Mode
A/D converter and the internal voltage reference is power-up state
PEN interrupt function is disabled and PENIRQN is forced to “H” state if CSN=”H”. The behavior
of PENIRQN is the same as “ADC ON Mode”

[AK4180]
BUSY and DOUT goes to “L” from Hi-Z state at the falling edge of CSN. The AK4180 latches the 8bit control word serially via
DIN at the rising edge of DCLK. As the AK4180 starts the command decoding at the first “H” bit after CSN=”↓”, MSB of the
command must be “H”.
Tracking time is the period from the falling edge of 5th DCLK to the falling edge of 8th DCLK. If SER/ DFR =”1”, PD0=”0”, and
if analog input is X-axis or Y-axis (the measurement is the pen position or pen pressure), the touch screen driver switches are
turned ON for this 3DCLK period. If SER/ DFR =”0”, the switches are turned ON for the period from 5DCLK↓ to 20 DCLK↓.
BUSY is “H” for one DCLK period, which is from 8DCLK↓ to 9DCLK↓. BUSY is “L” for other period.
The AK4180 outputs A/D data with MSB first via DOUT from the falling edge of 9th DCLK.
The AK4180 can output one A/D data per 16 DCLK clock cycles for the fastest way as shown in the dotted line of the above figure.
Pen Interrupt
The AK4180 has pen interrupt function to detect the pen touch. Pen interrupt function is enabled at power-down state. YN pin is
connected to GND at the PEN interrupt enabled state. And XP pin is pulled up via an internal resistor (Ri), typically 20k ohm.
PENIRQN pulled up via an external resistor, 100k ohm, is also connected to XP pin. If the two plates are touched, the current
flows via <VCC> – <Ri> – <XP> –<the plates> - <YN>. The resistance of the plate is generally 1k ohm or less, PENIRQN is
forced to “L” level. If the pen is released, PENIRQN returns “H” level because two plates are disconnected, and the current
doesn’t flow via two plates.
If the plate is touched with pen or finger, PENIRQN goes to “L” at CSN=”H” unless both PD1 and PD0 is “1”. PENIRQN is
disabled and keeps “H” level regardless of the touched/non-touched state if CSN=”H”.
The operation of PENIRQN is related to PD0 bit. PD0 bit is updated at the rising edge of 8th DCLK ( please see “ Power-down
Control “ for the detail). Therefore, the last PD0 bit is valid until this timing. (The internal voltage reference is controlled by only
PD1 bit regardless of PD0 bit and CSN state.)
i) The period from the 5th DCLK ↓to the 20th DCLK↓
The behavior of PENIRQN is related to the selected analog input. If the X-axis or Y-axis is selected as analog input,
PENIRQN is forced to “L” regardless of the touched/non-touched state. If the temperature, VBAT, or auxiliary inputs is
selected, PENIRQN is forced to “H” regardless of the touched/non-touched state.
ii) The period from CSN↓ to the 5th DCLK.
The behavior of PENIRQN is related to the combination of the last selected analog input channel, and the last PD0 bit. If the
last PD0 bit was set to “0”, PENIRQN is “H” while the plate is not pressed, and “L” while the plate is pressed regardless of the
last analog input. If the last PD0 bit was set to “1”, the last analog input decides the level of PENIRQN. If the last analog
input channel is ether X-axis or Y-axis, PENIRQN is “L” for all the time in this period regardless of the touched/non-touched
state. On the other hand, if the last analog input is temperature, VBAT, or auxiliary inputs, PENIRQN is “H” for all the time
in this period regardless of the touched/non-touched state.
iii) The period from the 20th DCLK↓ to CSN↑
The behavior of PENIRQN is related to the combination of the current selected analog input channel, and the current PD0 bit.
If the current PD0 bit is set to “0”, PENIRQN is “H” while the plate is not pressed, and “L” while the plate is pressed
regardless of the current selected analog input. If the current PD0 bit is set to “1”, the current analog input decides the
operation of PENIRQN. If the current analog input channel is ether X-axis or Y-axis, PENIRQN is “L” for all the time in this
period regardless of the touched/non-touched state. On the other hand, if the current analog input is temperature, VBAT, or
auxiliary inputs, PENIRQN is “H” for all the time in this period regardless of the touched/non-touched state..
It is recommended that microcontroller mask the pseudo-interrupts while the control command is issued or A/D data is output.
