C3-C0 = 0000 or 0001: These scan functions can collaborate with the PSM bit that defines the control mode of
converter functions. If the PSM bit is set to '1', these scan function select commands are recommended to be
issued before a pen touch is detected in order to allow the TSC2006 to initiate and control the scan processes
immediately after the screen is touched. If these functions are not issued before a pen touch is detected, the
TSC2006 waits for the host to write these functions before starting a scan process. If PSM stays as '1' after a
TSC-initiated scan function is complete, the host is not required to write these function select bits again for each
of the following pen touches after the detected touch. In the host-controlled converter function mode (PSM = 0),
the host must send these functions select bits repeatedly for each scan function after a detected pen touch.
Range of resistances of different touch screen panels can be selected by setting the TBM bits in CFR1; see
Table 20 . Once the resistance of the sensor panel is selected, two continuity tests are run separately for the
X-axis and Y-axis. The unit under test must pass both connection tests to ensure that a proper connection is
secured.
C3-C0 = 1001: PINTDAV = 0 during this connection test. A '1' shown at end of the test indicates the X-axis
drivers are well-connected to the sensor; otherwise, X-axis drivers are poorly connected. If drivers fail to connect,
then PINTDAV stays low until a stop bit (STS set to '1') is issued.
C3-C0 = 1010: PINTDAV = 0 during this connection test. A '1' shown at end of the test indicates the Y-axis
drivers are well-connected to the sensor; otherwise, Y-axis drivers are poorly connected. If the drivers are fail to
connect, then PINTDAV stays low until a stop bit (STS set to '1') is issued.
