DS41393B-page 4 Preliminary 2009-2012 Microchip Technology Inc. AR1000 SERIES RESISTIVE TOUCH SCREEN CONTROLLER 1.0 DEVICE OVERVIEW 1.1 The Microchip mTouchTM AR1000 Series Resistive Touch Screen Controller is a complete, easy to integrate, cost-effective and universal touch screen controller chip. The AR1000 Series has sophisticated proprietary touch screen decoding algorithms to process all touch data, saving the host from the processing overhead. Providing filtering capabilities beyond that of other low-cost devices, the AR1000 delivers reliable, validated, and calibrated touch coordinates. Using the on-board EEPROM, the AR1000 can store and independently apply the calibration to the touch coordinates before sending them to the host. This unique combination of features makes the AR1000 the most resource-efficient touch screen controller for system designs, including embedded system integrations.

Supply Voltage Ground 2009-2012 Microchip Technology Inc. AR1000 SERIES RESISTIVE TOUCH SCREEN CONTROLLER 2.0 BASICS OF RESISTIVE SENSORS 2.1 Terminology Bus Bars or Silver Frit electrically connect the ITO on the flex and stable layers to the sensor’s interface tail. Bus bars are typically screen printed silver ink. They are typically much lower in resistivity than the ITO. X-Axis is the left and right direction on the touch sensor. ITO (Indium Tin Oxide) is the resistive coating that makes up the active area of the touch sensor. ITO is a transparent semiconductor that is sputtered onto the touch sensor layers. Flex or Film or Topsheet is the top sensor layer that a user touches. Flex refers to the fact that the top layer physically flexes from the pressure of a touch. Stable or Glass is the bottom sensor layer that interfaces against the display. Spacer Adhesive is a frame of adhesive that connects the flex and stable layers together around the perimeter of the sensor. Spacer Dots maintain physical and electrical separation between the flex and stable layers. The dots are typically printed onto the stable layer. Y-Axis is the top and bottom direction on the touch sensor. Drive Lines supply a voltage gradient across the sensor. 2.2 General Resistive 4, 5, and 8-wire touch sensors consist of two facing conductive layers, held in physical separation from each other. The force of a touch causes the top layer to deflect and make electrical contact with the bottom layer. Touch position measurements are made by applying a voltage gradient across a layer or axis of the touch sensor. The touch position voltage for the axis can be measured using the opposing layer. A comparison of typical sensor constructions is shown below in Table 2-1. TABLE 2-1: SENSOR COMPARISON Sensor Comments 4-Wire Less expensive than 5-wire or 8-wire Lower power than 5-wire More linear (without correction) than 5-wire Touch inaccuracies occur from flex layer damage or resistance changes 5-Wire Maintains touch accuracy with flex layer damage Inherent nonlinearity often requires touch data correction Touch inaccuracies occur from resistance changes 8-Wire More expensive than 4-wire Lower power than 5-wire More linear (without correction) than 5-wire Touch inaccuracies occur from flex layer damaged Maintains touch accuracy with resistance changes The AR1000 Series Resistive Touch Screen Controllers will work with any manufacturers of analog resistive 4, 5 and 8-wire touch screens. The communications and decoding are included, allowing the user the quickest simplest method of interfacing analog resistive touch screens into their applications. The AR1000 Series was designed with an understanding of the materials and processes that make up resistive touch screens. The AR1000 Series Touch Controller is not only reliable, but can enhance the reliability and longevity of the resistive touch screen, due to its advanced filtering algorithms and wide range of operation. 2009-2012 Microchip Technology Inc. Preliminary DS41393B-page 7 AR1000 SERIES RESISTIVE TOUCH SCREEN CONTROLLER 2.3 4-Wire Sensor A 4-wire resistive touch sensor consists of a stable and flex layer, electrically separated by spacer dots. The layers are assembled perpendicular to each other. The touch position is determined by first applying a voltage gradient across the flex layer and using the stable layer to measure the flex layer’s touch position voltage. The second step is applying a voltage gradient across the stable layer and using the flex layer to measure the stable layer’s touch position voltage. The measured voltage at any position across a driven axis is predictable. A touch moving in the direction of the driven axis will yield a linearly changing voltage. A touch moving perpendicular to the driven axis will yield a relatively unchanging voltage (See Figure 2-1). FIGURE 2-1: DS41393B-page 8 4-WIRE DECODING Preliminary 2009-2012 Microchip Technology Inc. AR1000 SERIES RESISTIVE TOUCH SCREEN CONTROLLER 2.4 8-Wire Sensor An 8-wire resistive touch sensor consists of a stable and flex layer, electrically separated by spacer dots. The layers are assembled perpendicular to each other. The touch position is determined by first applying a voltage gradient across the flex layer and using the stable layer to measure the flex layer’s touch position voltage. The second step is applying a voltage gradient across the stable layer and using the flex layer to measure the stable layer’s touch position voltage. The measured voltage at any position across a driven axis is predictable. A touch moving in the direction of the driven axis will yield a linearly changing voltage. A touch moving perpendicular to the driven axis will yield a relatively unchanging voltage. FIGURE 2-2: The basic decoding of an 8-wire sensor is similar to a 4-wire. The difference is that an 8-wire sensor has four additional interconnects used to reference sensor voltage back to the controller. A touch system may experience voltage losses due to resistance changes in the bus bars and connection between the controller and sensor. The losses can vary with product use, temperature, and humidity. In a 4-wire sensor, variations in the losses manifest themselves as error or drift in the reported touch location. The four additional sense lines found on 8-wire sensors are added to dynamically reference the voltage to correct for this fluctuation during use (See Figure 2-2). 8-WIRE DECODING 2009-2012 Microchip Technology Inc. Preliminary DS41393B-page 9 AR1000 SERIES RESISTIVE TOUCH SCREEN CONTROLLER 2.5 5-Wire Sensor A 5-wire resistive touch sensor consists of a flex and stable layer, electrically separated by spacer dots. The touch position is determined by first applying a voltage gradient across the stable layer in the X-axis direction and using the flex layer to measure the axis touch position voltage. The second step is applying a voltage gradient across the stable layer in the Y-axis direction and using the flex layer to measure the axis touch position voltage. The voltage is not directly applied to the edges of the active layer, as it is for 4-wire and 8-wire sensors. The voltage is applied to the corners of a 5-wire sensor. FIGURE 2-3: DS41393B-page 10 To measure the X-axis, the left edge of the layer is driven with 0V (ground), using connections to the upper left and lower left sensor corners. The right edge is driven with +5 VDC, using connections to the upper right and lower right sensor corners. To measure the Y-axis, the top edge of the layer is driven with 0V (ground), using connections to the upper left and upper right sensor corners. The bottom edge is driven with +5 VDC, using connections to the lower left and lower right sensor corners. The measured voltage at any position across a driven axis is predictable. A touch moving in the direction of the driven axis will yield a linearly changing voltage. A touch moving perpendicular to the driven axis will yield a relatively unchanging voltage (See Figure 2-3). 5-Wire Decoding Preliminary 2009-2012 Microchip Technology Inc. AR1000 SERIES RESISTIVE TOUCH SCREEN CONTROLLER 3.0 HARDWARE 3.1 Main Schematic A main application schematic for the SOIC/SSOP package pinout is shown in Figure 3-1. See Figure 1-2 for the QFN package pinout. FIGURE 3-1: MAIN SCHEMATIC (SOIC/SSOP PACKAGE PINOUT) 2009-2012 Microchip Technology Inc. Preliminary DS41393B-page 11 AR1000 SERIES RESISTIVE TOUCH SCREEN CONTROLLER 3.2 4, 5, 8-Wire Sensor Selection 3.3 The desired sensor type of 4/8-wire or 5-wire is hardware selectable using pin M2. TABLE 3-1: Type 4/8-WIRE vs. 5-WIRE SELECTION M2 pin 4/8-wire VSS 5-wire VDD If 4/8-wire has been hardware-selected, then the choice of 4-wire or 8-wire is software-selectable via the TouchOptions Configuration register. 4-Wire Touch Sensor Interface Sensor tail pinouts can vary by manufacturer and part number. Ensure that both sensor tail pins for one sensor axis (layer) are connected to the controller’s X-/X+ pins and the tail pins for the other sensor axis (layer) are connected to the controller’s Y-/Y+ pins. The controller’s X-/X+ and Y-/Y+ pin pairs do not need to connect to a specific sensor axis. The orientation of controller pins X- and X+ to the two sides of a given sensor axis is not important. Likewise, the orientation of controller pins Y- and Y+ to the two sides of the other sensor axis is not important. Connections to a 4-wire touch sensor are as follows (See Figure 3-2). When 4/8-wire is hardware-selected, the controller defaults to 4-wire operation. If 8-wire operation is desired, then the TouchOptions Configuration register must be changed. FIGURE 3-2: 4-WIRE TOUCH SENSOR INTERFACE Tie unused controller pins 5WSX-, SX+, SY-, and SY+ to VSS. See Section 3.8 “ESD Considerations” and Section 3.9 “Noise Considerations” for important information regarding the capacitance of the controller schematic hardware. DS41393B-page 12 Preliminary 2009-2012 Microchip Technology Inc. AR1000 SERIES RESISTIVE TOUCH SCREEN CONTROLLER 3.4 5-Wire Touch Sensor Interface Sensor tail pinouts can vary by manufacturer and part number. Ensure sensor tail pins for one pair of diagonally related sensor corners are connected to the controller’s X-/X+ pins and the tail pins for the other pair of diagonally related corners are connected to the controller’s Y-/Y+ pins. The controller’s X-/X+ and Y-/Y+ pin pairs do not need to connect to a specific sensor axis. The orientation of controller pins X- and X+ to the two selected diagonal sensor corners is not important. Likewise, the orientation of controller pins Y- and Y+ to the other two selected diagonal sensor corners is not important. The sensor tail pin connected to its top layer must be connected to the controller’s 5WSX- pin. Connections to a 5-wire touch sensor are shown in Figure 3-3 below. FIGURE 3-3: 5-WIRE TOUCH SENSOR INTERFACE Tie unused controller pins SX+, SY-, and SY+ to VSS. See “Section 3.8 “ESD Considerations” and Section 3.9 “Noise Considerations” for important information regarding the capacitance of the controller schematic hardware. 2009-2012 Microchip Technology Inc. Preliminary DS41393B-page 13 AR1000 SERIES RESISTIVE TOUCH SCREEN CONTROLLER 3.5 8-Wire Touch Sensor Interface Sensor tail pinouts can vary by manufacturer and part number. Ensure both sensor tail pins for one sensor axis (layer) are connected to the controller’s X-/X+ pins and the tail pins for the other sensor axis (layer) are connected to the controller’s Y-/Y+ pins. The controller’s X-/X+ and Y-/Y+ pin pairs do not need to connect to a specific sensor axis. The orientation of controller pins X- and X+ to the two sides of a given sensor axis is not important. Likewise, the orientation of controller pins Y- and Y+ to the two sides of the other sensor axis is not important. The 8-wire sensor differs from a 4-wire sensor in that each edge of an 8-wire sensor has a secondary connection brought to the sensor’s tail. These secondary connections are referred to as “sense” lines. The controller pins associated with the sense line for an 8-wire sensor contain an ‘S’ prefix in their respective names. For example, the SY- pin is the sense line connection associated with the main Y- pin connection. FIGURE 3-4: Consult with the sensor manufacturer’s specification to determine which member of each edge connected pair is the special 8-wire “sense” connection. Incorrectly connecting the sense and excite lines to the controller will adversely affect performance. The controller requires that the main and “sense” tail pin pairs for sensor edges be connected to controller pin pairs as follows: • • • • Y- and SYY+ and SY+ X- and 5WSXX+ and SX+ Connections to a 8-wire touch sensor are shown in Figure 3-4 below. 8-WIRE TOUCH SENSOR INTERFACE See Section 3.8 “ESD Considerations” and Section 3.9 “Noise Considerations” for important information regarding the capacitance of the controller schematic hardware. DS41393B-page 14 Preliminary 2009-2012 Microchip Technology Inc. AR1000 SERIES RESISTIVE TOUCH SCREEN CONTROLLER 3.6 Status LED 3.8 ESD Considerations The LED and associated resistor are optional. ESD protection is shown on the 4-wire, 5-wire, and 8-wire interface applications schematics. FIGURE 3-5: The capacitance of alternate ESD diodes may adversely affect touch performance. A lower capacitance is better. The PESD5V0S1BA parts shown in the reference design have a typical capacitance of 35 pF. Test to ensure that selected ESD protection does not degrade touch performance. The LED serves as a status indicator that the controller is functioning. It will slow flash when the controller is running with no touch in progress. It will flicker quickly (mid-level on) when a touch is in progress. If the LED is used with SPI communication, then the LED will be off with no touch and flicker quickly (mid-level on) when a touch is in progress. Note: 3.7 If the SIQ pin is not used, it must be left as a No Connect and NOT tied to circuit VDD or VSS. ESD protection is shown in the reference design, but acceptable protection is dependent on your specific application. Ensure your ESD solution meets your design requirements. 3.9 Noise Considerations Touch sensor filtering capacitors are included in the reference design. Warning: Changing the value of the capacitors may adversely affect performance of the touch system. WAKE Pin The AR1000’s WAKE pin is described as “Touch Wake-Up/Touch Detection”. It serves the following three roles in the controller’s functionality: • Wake-up from touch • Touch detection • Measure sensor capacitance The application circuit shows a 20 KΩ resistor connected between the WAKE pin and the X- pin on the controller chip. The resistor is required for product operation, based on all three of the above roles. 2009-2012 Microchip Technology Inc.

Clock stretching is when the slave device holds the SCL line low, indicating to the master that it is not ready to continue the communications. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. SCL and SDA lines are Idle high. Master presents “Start” bit to the AR1021 by taking SDA high-to-low, followed by taking SCL high-to-low. Master presents 7-bit Address, followed by a R/W = 0 (Write mode) bit to the AR1021 on SDA, at the rising edge of eight master clock (SCL) cycles. AR1021 compares the received address to its device ID. If they match, the AR1021 acknowledges (ACK) the master sent address by presenting a low on SDA, followed by a low-high-low on SCL. Master monitors SCL, as the AR1021 may be “clock stretching”, holding SCL low to indicate the master should wait. Master presents eight data bits (MSb first) to the AR1021 on SDA, at the rising edge of eight master clock (SCL) cycles. AR1021 acknowledges (ACK) receipt of the eight data bits by presenting a low on SDA, followed by a low-high-low on SCL. If data transfer is not complete, then go to step 5. Master presents a “Stop” bit to the AR1021 by taking SCL low-high, followed by taking SDA low-to-high. 2009-2012 Microchip Technology Inc. Clock Stretching During communications, the AR1021 may hold off the master by stretching the clock with a low on SCL. The master must monitor the slave SCL pin to ensure the AR1021 is not holding it low, prior to asserting another clock pulse for transmitting or receiving. 4.7 AR1020 Write Conditions The AR1020 part does not implement clock stretching on write conditions. A 50 us delay is needed before the Stop bit, when clocking a command to the AR1020.

The AR1021 controller’s touch reporting is interrupt driven: Each host driven clock cycle simultaneously shifts a bit of data into and out from the AR1021 controller: • The AR1021 controller asserts the SIQ interrupt pin high when it has a touch report ready. • The host clocks out the bytes of the touch report packet from the AR1021 controller. • The AR1021 controller clears the SIQ interrupt pin low, after the first byte of the touch report packet has been clocked out by the host. • Out from the AR1021 controller’s Serial Data Out (SDO) line. • Into the AR1021 controller’s Serial Data In (SDI) line. The data is shifted Most Significant bit (MSb) first. If the host clocks data out from the AR1021 controller when no valid data is available, then a byte value of 0x4d will be presented by the controller.

In general, SPI data rates can be in MHz. Peripherals devices, such as the AR1021 controller, specify their own unique maximum SPI data rates. The maximum SPI bit rate for the AR1021 controller is ~900 kHz. INTER-BYTE DELAY The AR1021 controller requires an inter-byte delay of ~50 us. This means the host should wait ~50 us between the end of clocking a given byte and the start of clocking the next byte. 5.7.3 BIT TIMING – DETAIL Characterized timing details are shown below, in Figure 5-4.

The range for X-axis and Y-axis coordinates is from 04095 (12-bit). The realized resolution is 1024, and bits X1:X0 and Y1:Y0 are zeros. It is recommended that applications be developed to read the 12-bit coordinates from the packet and use them in a 12-bit format.

Preliminary DS41393B-page 29 AR1000 SERIES RESISTIVE TOUCH SCREEN CONTROLLER 8.2 8.2.1 Register Descriptions 8.2.5 TouchThreshold Register (OFFSET 0x02) The TouchThreshold register sets the threshold for a touch condition to be detected as a touch. A touch is detected if it is below the TouchThreshold setting. Too small of a value might prevent the controller from accepting a real touch, while too large of a value might allow the controller to accept very light or false touch conditions. Valid values are as follows: 0 ≤ TouchThreshold ≤ 255 8.2.2 SensitivityFilter Register (OFFSET 0x03) 0 ≤ SensitivityFilter ≤ 10 SamplingFast Register (OFFSET 0x04) The SamplingFast register sets the level of touch measurement sample averaging, when touch movement is determined to be fast. See the SpeedThreshold register for information on the touch movement threshold. A lower value will provide for a higher touch coordinate reporting rate when touch movement is fast, but may exhibit more high-frequency random noise error in the touch position. A higher value will reduce the touch coordinate reporting rate when touch movement is fast, but will reduce high-frequency random noise error in the touch position. Valid values are as follows: SamplingFast: <1, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128> Recommended Values: <4, 8, 16> Higher values may improve accuracy with some sensors. 8.2.4 The AccuracyFilterFast register sets the level of an accuracy enhancement filter, used when the touch movement is fast. See the SpeedThreshold register for information on the touch movement threshold. A lower value will provide better touch coordinate resolution when the touch motion is fast, but may exhibit more low-frequency noise error in the touch position. A higher value will reduce touch coordinate resolution when the touch motion is fast, but will reduce low-frequency random noise error in the touch position. Valid values are as follows: 1 ≤ AccuracyFilterFast ≤ 8 The SensitivityFilter register sets the level of touch sensitivity. A higher value is more sensitive to a touch (accepts a lighter touch), but may exhibit a less stable touch position. A lower value is less sensitive to a touch (requires a harder touch), but will provide a more stable touch position. Valid values are as follows: 8.2.3 AccuracyFilterFast Register (OFFSET 0x06) Higher values may improve accuracy with some sensors. 8.2.6 AccuracyFilterSlow Register (OFFSET 0x07) The AccuracyFilterSlow register sets the level of an accuracy enhancement filter, used when the touch movement is slow. See the SpeedThreshold register for information on the touch movement threshold. A lower value will provide better touch coordinate resolution when the touch motion is slow, but may exhibit more low-frequency noise error in the touch position. A higher value will reduce touch coordinate resolution when the touch motion is slow, but will reduce low-frequency random noise error in the touch position. Valid values are as follows: 1 ≤ AccuracyFilterSlow ≤ 8 8.2.7 SpeedThreshold Register (OFFSET 0x08) The SpeedThreshold register sets the threshold for touch movement to be considered as slow or fast. A lower value reduces the touch movement speed that will be considered as fast. A higher value increases the touch movement speed that will be considered as fast. Valid values are as follows: 0 ≤ SpeedThreshhold ≤ 255 SamplingSlow Register (OFFSET 0x05) The SamplingSlow register sets the level of touch measurement sample averaging, when touch movement is slow. See the SpeedThreshold register for information on the touch movement threshold. A lower value will increase the touch coordinate reporting rate when the touch motion is slow, but may exhibit a less stable more jittery touch position. A higher value will decrease the touch coordinate reporting rate when the touch motion is slow, but will provide a more stable touch position. Valid values are as follows: SamplingSlow: 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128 DS41393B-page 30 Preliminary 2009-2012 Microchip Technology Inc. AR1000 SERIES RESISTIVE TOUCH SCREEN CONTROLLER 8.2.8 SleepDelay Register (OFFSET 0x0A) 8.2.10 TouchMode Register (OFFSET 0x0C) The SleepDelay register sets the time duration with no touch or command activity that will cause the controller to enter a low-power Sleep mode. Valid values are as follows: The TouchMode register configures the action taken for various touch states. 0 ≤ SleepDelay ≤ 255 Touch States: Sleep Delay Time = SleepDelay * 100 ms; when SleepDelay > 0 1. A value of zero disables the Sleep mode, such that the controller will never enter low-power Sleep mode. A touch event will wake the controller from low-power Sleep mode and start sending touch reports. Communications sent to the controller will wake it from the lowpower Sleep mode and initiate action to the command. 8.2.9 There are three states of touch for the controller’s touch reporting action which can be independently controlled. User defined 0-3 touch reports, with selectable pen states. 2. Pen Movement (touch movement after initial touch) User defined no-touch reports or streaming touch reports, with selectable pen states. 3. PenUpDelay Register (OFFSET 0x0B) Pen Down (initial touch) Pen Up (touch release) User defined 0-3 touch reports, with selectable pen states. The PenUpDelay register sets the duration of a pen-up event that the controller will allow, without sending a pen-up report for the event. The delay time is started upon detecting a pen-up condition. If a pen down is reestablished before the delay time expires, then pen-down reports will continue without a pen up being sent. This effectively debounces a touch event in process. Every touch report includes a “P” (Pen) bit that indicates the pen state. • Pen Down: P = 1 • Pen Up: P=0 A lower value will make the controller more responsive to pen ups, but will cause more touch drop outs with a lighter touch. A higher value will make the controller less responsive to pen ups, but will reduce the number of touch drop outs with a lighter touch. Valid values are as follows: 0 ≤ PenUpDelay ≤ 255 Pen-up Delay Time ≈ PenUpDelay * 240 μs 2009-2012 Microchip Technology Inc.

An 8-wire touch sensor will provide basic operation if the 48W Configuration bit is incorrectly defined as 0, which selects 4wire. However, the benefit of the 8-wire sensor will only be realized if the 48W Configuration bit is correctly defined as 1, selecting 8-wire. 8.2.12 Calibration Inset = (CalibrationInset/2) %, Range of 020% with 0.5% resolution For example, CalibrationInset = 25 (0x19) yields a calibration inset of (25/2) or 12.5%. During the calibration procedure, the controller will internally extrapolate the calibration point touch values in Calibration mode by 12.5% to achieve full scale. FIGURE 8-1: CalibrationInset Register (OFFSET 0x0E) The CalibrationInset register defines the expected position of the calibration points, inset from the perimeter of the touch sensor’s active area, by a percentage of the full scale dimension. This allows for the calibration targets to be placed inset from edge to make it easier for a user to touch them. 12.5% of Full Scale Location of Calibration Targets presented during Calibration. 12.5% of Full Scale The CalibrationInset register value is only used when the CALIBRATION_MODE command is issued to the controller. In Calibration mode, the controller will extrapolate the calibration point touch report values by the defined CalibrationInset percentage to achieve full scale. A software application that issues the CALIBRATION_MODE command must present the displayed calibration targets at the same inset percentage as defined in this CalibrationInset register. Valid values are as follows: 0 ≤ CalibrationInset ≤ 40 2009-2012 Microchip Technology Inc. Preliminary DS41393B-page 33 AR1000 SERIES RESISTIVE TOUCH SCREEN CONTROLLER 8.2.13 PenStateReportDelay Register (OFFSET 0x0F) The PenStateReportDelay register sets the delay time between sending of sequential touch reports for the “Pen-Down” and “Pen-Up” Touch mode states. See Section 8.2.10 “TouchMode Register (offset 0x0C)” for touch modes. For example, if “Pen-Up” state of the TouchMode register is configured to send a touch report with P=1, followed by a touch report with P=0, then this delay occurs between the two touch reports. This provides some timing flexibility between the two touch reports that may be desired in certain applications. Valid values are as follows. 0 ≤ PenStateReportDelay ≤ 255 Pen State Report Delay Time = PenStateReportDelay * 50 μs 8.2.14 TouchReportDelay Register (OFFSET 0x11) The TouchReportDelay register sets a forced delay time between successive touch report packets. This allows slowing down of the touch report rate, if desirable for a given application. For example, a given application may not need a high rate of touch reports and may want to reduce the overhead used to service all of the touch reports being sent. In this situation, increasing the value of this register will reduce the rate at which the controller sends touch reports. Valid values are as follows: 0 ≤ TouchReportDelay ≤ 255 Touch Report Delay Time ≈ TouchReportDelay * 500 μs DS41393B-page 34 Preliminary 2009-2012 Microchip Technology Inc.

This instructs the controller to enter a mode of accepting the next four touches as the calibration point coordinates. See Section 10.1 “Calibration of Touch Sensor with Controller” for an example. Completion of Calibration mode will automatically store the calibration point coordinates in on-board controller memory and set (to 1) the CCE bit of the TouchOptions register. This bit enables the controller to report touch coordinates that have been processed with the previously collected calibration data. To provide for proper touch orientation, the four sequential calibration touches must be input in the physical order on the touch sensor, as shown in Figure 9-1. FIGURE 9-1: CALIBRATION ROUTINE SEQUENCE #1 Upper Left #2 Upper Right Touch Sensor #4 Lower Left #3 Lower Right Upon completion, the controller’s register values and calibration data are stored to the EEPROM. The Calibration mode will be cancelled by sending any command before the mode has been completed. If the calibration is canceled, the controller response may appear incorrect or incomplete. This is expected behavior. DS41393B-page 38 Preliminary 2009-2012 Microchip Technology Inc.

Preliminary DS41393B-page 39 AR1000 SERIES RESISTIVE TOUCH SCREEN CONTROLLER 9.3.4.3 Calibration Data Encoded and Stored in EEPROM The raw touch coordinates, decoded by the controller, for each of the four calibration touches are extrapolated if CalibrationInset was non-zero. The four coordinate pairs are then re-oriented, if required, such that the upper left corner is the minimum (X,Y) “origin” value pair and the lower right corner is the maximum (X,Y) value pair. System integrators may prefer to pre-load a calibration into their design. This allows the user to properly navigate to the calibration routine icon or shortcut without the use of a mouse. This also addresses the need to calibrate each system individually before deploying it to the field. Separator Coordinates are 10-bit significant values, scaled to 16-bit and stored in a High (Hi) and Low (Lo) byte pair. Upper Left (Node 1) Upper Right (Node 2) Lower Right (Node 3) X Lo Y Hi Lo X Hi Lo Y Hi Lo X Hi Lo Lower Left (Node 4) Y Hi Lo X Hi Lo Flip State Y Hi Lo Hi Decode the above data to as follows: 1. 2. 3. Swap the order of stored low and high bytes for a given coordinate. Convert the 16-bit value (stored high and low bytes) from hexadecimal to decimal. Divide the result by 64 to properly rescale the 16-bit stored value back to a 10-bit significant coordinate.

The task is often left up to the host to perform. This controller provides a feature for it to send coordinates that have already been calibrated, rather than the host needing to perform this task. If enabled, the feature will apply pre-collected 4-point calibration data to the reported touch coordinates. Calibration only accounts for X and Y directional scaling. It does not correct for angular errors due to rotation of the touch sensor on the video display. Set the Calibration Inset by writing the desired value to the CalibrationInset register.
