FT6x06 is Self-Capacitive Touch Panel Controller used on many boards manufactured by ST. The FT6x06 Series ICs are single-chip capacitive touch panel controller ICs with a built-in 8 bit enhanced Micro-controller unit (MCU). They adopt the self-capacitance technology, which supports single point and gesture touch. This is built on top of embedded-hal and implements blocking I2C module.
The FT6x06 series ICs include FT6206 /FT6306.
This repository is a device driver for FT6x06 written in Rust which was reverse engineered from C code in ST's component driver.
This repository, that is built upon embedded-hal, provides tools to access the touchpanel controller in order to retrieve touch coordinate and gesture data via the microcontroller's I2C bus.
This repo also contains examples for FT6206 IC built on top of abstraction layer for STM32F4 devices-stm32f4xx-hal for the boards
STM32F412/413 boards. Documentation of touchscreen controllers on this boards is not well written.
This is mainly based on the STMicroelectronics github page- https://github.com/STMicroelectronics/stm32-ft6x06.
Many boards manufactured by STMicroelectronics use the Touch Panel Controller, model number FT6x06. The single-chip FT6x06 Series ICs are capacitive touch panel controllers with an integrated 8 bit improved micro-controller unit.
More examples of how to use the touch panel component of the STM32F412/13 boards are included.
example/interface demonstrates how the display and touch panel could be used to create a User Interface for an embedded board.
To run an example,
cargo run --features stm32f413,fsmc_lcd --example interface
