Table 4 Actual 12-Bit Voltage Readings
Using these experimental values, the touch
coordinates scaled to the LCD active area can
be easily determined. Use the following
equations, where V
x
and V
y
are the voltage
readings for the X and Y plates.
Equation 1 Convert Voltage Readings to
Coordinates
Touch can be detected on the PENIRQ
interrupt signal. A low value indicates the
screen is being touched.
You can also measure the pressure of the
touch, referred to as the Z coordinate. The
measurement requires a different biasing of
the touchscreen and requires some
calculation. The equation uses the X and Y
plate resistance, which for this panel can be
approximated by 1024 and 256 ohms,
respectively.
For information on how to use the touch
controller to measure touch pressure, refer to
the AD7873 datasheet at

VHDCI Connector
The VmodTFT is only compatible with system
boards using 3.3V-level signaling and should
only be attached to the system board once the
signals driven by the system board are
defined.
