Female Connector on the Touchscreen Cable
The touchscreen cable has five wires that terminate into a molded
12-pin dual row female connector. It also contains a 1K bit non-
volatile memory chip that stores screen linearization coefficients.
Table 21 shows the pin out for the female connector on the
touchscreen cable. The Molex part number for this connector is
70182-15-45-0906.

controller
Signals used by the controller to
store and retrieve linearization
coefficients from the non-volatile
RAM (NOVRAM) located on the
touchscreen cable.
4 VCC +5 VDC Host system The +5 volt supply input
provided by the host system. The
controller requires 70 mA
(typical), 85 mA (maximum),
+5% regulation, and 100 mV
maximum ripple and noise.
5 GND Signal ground Host system Provides the return path for the
supply current.
6 CGND Chassis ground Host system Provides a low impedance path to
chassis ground.
