FT5XX6 Touch Panel Controller

[dgrammens]

I've noticed that in the Mikroe FT5XX6 library there are the following listed Touch Panel Controllers-

FT5X06, FT5X16, FT5X26, FT5X46 (FT_type)

One of the above is needed in the FT5XX6 Library function => "void FT5XX6_SetController(unsigned short FT_type)"

Can you tell me which FT5XX6 Touch Panel Controller is used in each of the following Mikroe Capacitive boards -

TFT Board 3 Capacitive - FT5XXX ???
TFT Board 4 Capacitive - FT5XXX ???
TFT Board 5 Capacitive - FT5XXX ???
TFT Board 7 Capacitive - FT5XXX ???

Can you tell me the manufacturer of the FT5XXX chips? I'm trying to find Datasheets for these chips.
There are essentially no FT5XXX Datasheets on the Internet for review.

Do you have FTXXX Datasheets for the TFT Capacitive Boards listed above?

I would like to see a list of the registers for each of the FT5XX6 controllers.

In the FT5XX6 Library you have the following functions for use -
"FT5XX6_WriteRegister"
"FT5XX6_ReadRegister"

Would be nice to see the registers for each FTXXX Touch Controller.

Regards.

Hi,

Can you tell me which FT5XX6 Touch Panel Controller is used in each of the following Mikroe Capacitive boards -

TFT Board 3 Capacitive - FT5XXX ???
TFT Board 4 Capacitive - FT5XXX ???
TFT Board 5 Capacitive - FT5XXX ???
TFT Board 7 Capacitive - FT5XXX ???

TFT Board 3 Capacitive - FT5346
TFT Board 4 Capacitive - FT5216
TFT Board 5 Capacitive - FT5306
TFT Board 7 Capacitive - FT5426

Can you tell me the manufacturer of the FT5XXX chips? I'm trying to find Datasheets for these chips.
There are essentially no FT5XXX Datasheets on the Internet for review.

Do you have FTXXX Datasheets for the TFT Capacitive Boards listed above?

The manufacturer is FocalTech, here are the datasheets :

I had found those specs also. But that doesn’t answer my question.

I did find a Confidential document on line “Application Note for CTPM” (24 pages).
Copyright 2010, FocalTech Systems, Ltd.
Last Revision Date 18 Jan, 2010.

Without going into detail, sections of the document include -

CTP Register Mapping
Operating Mode (Operating Mode Register Map)
Device_Mode
Gest_ID
TD_Status
.
.
.

That is the kind of information I’m looking for.
With that kind of information I should be able to use “FT5XX6_WriteRegister” and “FT5XX6_ReadRegister” in the FT5XX6 Library
to look at the internal registers of the Capacitive Touch Panel (CTP) controller.

I’m asking for those documents if possible (Confidential??????).

We can take this discussion offline if need be. Let me know.


Are all of the above MikroElektronika Capacitive Touch Displays hardware to device address “0x38”?
