MK715
Touch Screen Controller
General Description
The MK715 Touch Screen Controller IC provides all the screen drive, Analog to Digital converter (ADC) and control circuits to easily interface to 4-wire analog resistive touch screens. It also includes a general purpose A to D converter and a clock synthesizer. The IC continually monitors the screen waiting for a touch. In this mode, the supply current is typically 4µA. When the screen is touched, the IC performs analog to digital conversions to determine the location of the touch, stores the X and Y locations in the registers, and issues an interrupt. This process is repeated up to 303 times per second until no further screen touches are detected, at which time the low current mode is resumed.
