Library Routines

TP_TFT_Init

Prototype

void TP_TFT_Init(unsigned int display_width, unsigned int display_height, unsigned int readX_ChNo, unsigned int readY_ChNo);
Description

Initialize TFT touch panel display. Default touch panel ADC threshold value is set to 900.

  • readX_ChNo: read X coordinate from desired ADC channel.
  • readY_ChNo: read Y coordinate from desired ADC channel.
Returns

Nothing.
Requires

Before calling this function initialize ADC module.
Example 
ADC1_Init();                   // Initalize ADC module
TP_TFT_Init(320, 240, 13, 12); // Initialize touch panel
Notes

None.

TP_TFT_Rotate

Prototype

void TP_TFT_Rotate(char);
Description

Rotates touch panel by 180 degrees.
Parameters
  • rotate: set display width. Valid values : 0 - don't rotate, 1 - rotate by 180 degrees.
Returns

Nothing.
Requires

Nothing.
Example 
TP_TFT_Rotate(1);   // rotate Touch Panel by 180 degrees
Notes

None.

TP_TFT_Set_ADC_Threshold

Prototype

void TP_TFT_Set_ADC_Threshold(unsigned int threshold);
Description

Set custom ADC threshold value, call this function after TP_TFT_Init.
Parameters
  • threshold: custom ADC threshold value.
