3 Description
The TSC2014 is a very low-power touch screen
controller designed to work with power-sensitive,
handheld applications that are based on advanced
low-voltage processors. It works with a supply voltage
as low as 1.2V, which can be supplied by a singlecell
battery. It contains a complete, ultralow-power,
12-bit, analog-to-digital (A/D) resistive touch screen
converter, including drivers and the control logic to
measure touch pressure.
In addition to these standard features, the TSC2014
offers preprocessing of the touch screen
measurements to reduce bus loading, thus reducing
the consumption of host processor resources that can
then be redirected to more critical functions.
The TSC2014 supports an I2C serial bus and data
transmission protocol in all three defined modes:
standard, fast, and high-speed. It offers
programmable resolution of 10 or 12 bits to
accommodate different screen sizes and performance
needs.
The TSC2014 is available in a miniature, 12-lead,
3 x 4 array, (1.555 ±0.055)mm x (2.055 ±0.055)mm
wafer chip-scale package (WCSP) package. The
device is characterized for the –40°C to +85°C
industrial temperature range.
