For healthcare and wellness console applications, ST recommends the STMPE812A, which is a resistive touchscreen controller with 12-bit ADC for high-resolution, an operating voltage range of 1.65 to 3.6V, and a fast 400kHz interface. It also features a reset pin for easy wake up. ST’s touch screen controller offers an easy to design, low cost solution. It has a finite state machine built in which means no firmware updates are needed. The autonomous touch detection results in low power consumption, making use more favorable in portable applications. No external components and minimum hardware tuning is required as well, due to its wide tuning window. It exhibits high noise immunity and sensitivity levels, allowing a thicker overlay and robust touch performance. Additionally, the small package size helps save board space.
