Enabling Touch panel
Touch panel is enabled using SW11.5, SW11.6, SW11.7
and SW11.8 switches. They connect BOTTOM and LEFT
lines of the touch panel with PB0 and PB1 analog inputs,
and DRIVEA and DRIVEB with PB8 and PB9 digital outputs
on microcontroller sockets. Prior to using Touch panel in
your application, make sure to disconnect other peripherals,
LEDs and additional pull-up or pull-down resistors from the
interface lines that could interfere with signals and cause
data corruption.

TOUCH PANEL
CONTROLLER
Touch panel is a glass panel whose surface is covered with two layers of
resistive material. When the screen is pressed, the outer layer is pushed
onto the inner layer and appropriate controllers can measure that pressure
and pinpoint its location. This is how touch panels can be used as an input
devices. EasyMx PRO v7a is equipped with touch panel controller and
connector for 4-wire resistive touch panels. It can very accurately register
pressure at a specific point, representing the touch coordinates in the
form of analog voltages, which can then be easily converted to X and Y
values. Touch panel comes as a part of TFT 320x240 display.
