Touch Sensor

[中文]

Introduction

A touch sensor system is built on a substrate which carries electrodes and relevant connections under a protective flat surface. When a user touches the surface, the capacitance variation is used to evaluate if the touch was valid.

Touch sensor on ESP32-S3 can support up to 14 capacitive touch pads / GPIOs.

The sensing pads can be arranged in different combinations (e.g., matrix, slider), so that a larger area or more points can be detected. The touch pad sensing process is under the control of a hardware-implemented finite-state machine (FSM) which is initiated by software or a dedicated hardware timer.

For design, operation, and control registers of a touch sensor, see ESP32-S3 Technical Reference Manual > On-Chip Sensors and Analog Signal Processing [PDF].

In-depth design details of touch sensors and firmware development guidelines for ESP32-S3 are available in Touch Sensor Application Note.

Functionality Overview

Description of API is broken down into groups of functions to provide a quick overview of the following features:

  • Initialization of touch pad driver

  • Configuration of touch pad GPIO pins

  • Taking measurements

  • Adjusting parameters of measurements

  • Filtering measurements

  • Touch detection methods

  • Setting up interrupts to report touch detection

  • Waking up from Sleep mode on interrupt

For detailed description of a particular function, please go to Section API Reference. Practical implementation of this API is covered in Section Application Examples.

Initialization

Before using a touch pad, you need to initialize the touch pad driver by calling the function touch_pad_init(). This function sets several .._DEFAULT driver parameters listed in API Reference under Macros. It also removes the information about which pads have been touched before, if any, and disables interrupts.

If the driver is not required anymore, deinitialize it by calling touch_pad_deinit().

Configuration

Enabling the touch sensor functionality for a particular GPIO is done with touch_pad_config().

Use the function touch_pad_set_fsm_mode() to select if touch pad measurement (operated by FSM) should be started automatically by a hardware timer, or by software. If software mode is selected, use touch_pad_sw_start() to start the FSM.

Touch State Measurements

The following function come in handy to read raw measurements from the sensor:

It can also be used, for example, to evaluate a particular touch pad design by checking the range of sensor readings when a pad is touched or released. This information can be then used to establish a touch threshold.

For the demonstration of how to read the touch pad data, check the application example peripherals/touch_sensor/touch_sensor_v2/touch_pad_read.

Method of Measurements

The touch sensor will record the period of time (i.e. the number of clock cycles) over a fixed charge/discharge cycles (specified by touch_pad_set_charge_discharge_times()). The count result is the raw data that read from touch_pad_read_raw_data(). After finishing one measurement, the touch sensor will sleep until the next measurement start, this interval between two measurements can be set by touch_pad_set_measurement_interval().

Note

If the specified charge and discharge cycles for measurement is too samll, the result may be inaccurate, but increasing charge and discharge cycles will increase the power consumption as well. Additionally, the response of the touch sensor will slow down if the total time of the inverval and measurement is too long.

Optimization of Measurements

A touch sensor has several configurable parameters to match the characteristics of a particular touch pad design. For instance, to sense smaller capacity changes, it is possible to narrow down the reference voltage range within which the touch pads are charged / discharged. The high and low reference voltages are set using the function touch_pad_set_voltage().

Besides the ability to discern smaller capacity changes, a positive side effect is reduction of power consumption for low power applications. A likely negative effect is an increase in measurement noise. If the dynamic range of obtained readings is still satisfactory, then further reduction of power consumption might be done by reducing the measurement time with touch_pad_set_charge_discharge_times().

The following list summarizes available measurement parameters and corresponding ‘set’ functions:

Relationship between the voltage range (high / low reference voltages), speed (slope), and measurement time is shown in the figure below.

Touch Pad - relationship between measurement parameters

Touch pad - relationship between measurement parameters

The last chart Output represents the touch sensor reading, i.e., the count of pulses collected within the measurement time.

All functions are provided in pairs to set a specific parameter and to get the current parameter’s value, e.g., touch_pad_set_voltage() and touch_pad_get_voltage().

Filtering of Measurements

If measurements are noisy, you can filter them with provided API functions. The ESP32-S3’s touch functionality provide two sets of APIs for doing this.

There is an internal touch channel that is not connected to any external GPIO. The measurements from this denoise pad can be used to filters out interference introduced on all channels, such as noise introduced by the power supply and external EMI. The denoise paramaters are set with the function touch_pad_denoise_set_config() and started by with touch_pad_denoise_enable()

There is also a configurable hardware implemented IIR-filter (infinite impulse response). This IIR-filter is configured with the function touch_pad_filter_set_config() and enabled by calling touch_pad_filter_enable()

Touch Detection

Touch detection is implemented in ESP32’s hardware based on the user-configured threshold and raw measurements executed by FSM. Use the functions touch_pad_get_status() to check which pads have been touched and touch_pad_clear_status() to clear the touch status information.

Hardware touch detection can also be wired to interrupts. This is described in the next section.

If measurements are noisy and capacity changes are small, hardware touch detection might be unreliable. To resolve this issue, instead of using hardware detection / provided interrupts, implement measurement filtering and perform touch detection in your own application. For sample implementation of both methods of touch detection, see peripherals/touch_sensor/touch_sensor_v2/touch_pad_interrupt.

Touch Triggered Interrupts

Before enabling an interrupt on a touch detection, you should establish a touch detection threshold. Use the functions described in Touch State Measurements to read and display sensor measurements when a pad is touched and released. Apply a filter if measurements are noisy and relative capacity changes are small. Depending on your application and environment conditions, test the influence of temperature and power supply voltage changes on measured values.

Once a detection threshold is established, it can be set during initialization with touch_pad_config() or at the runtime with touch_pad_set_thresh().

Finally, configure and manage interrupt calls using the following functions:

When interrupts are operational, you can obtain the information from which particular pad an interrupt came by invoking touch_pad_get_status() and clear the pad status with touch_pad_clear_status().

esp_err_t touch_pad_set_voltage(touch_high_volt_t refh, touch_low_volt_t refl, touch_volt_atten_t atten)

Set touch sensor high voltage threshold of chanrge. The touch sensor measures the channel capacitance value by charging and discharging the channel. So the high threshold should be less than the supply voltage.

Parameters

  • refl – the value of DREFL

  • atten – the attenuation on DREFH

Returns

  • ESP_OK on success

esp_err_t touch_pad_set_cnt_mode(touch_pad_t touch_num, touch_cnt_slope_t slope, touch_tie_opt_t opt)

Set touch sensor charge/discharge speed for each pad. If the slope is 0, the counter would always be zero. If the slope is 1, the charging and discharging would be slow, accordingly. If the slope is set 7, which is the maximum value, the charging and discharging would be fast.

Note

The higher the charge and discharge current, the greater the immunity of the touch channel, but it will increase the system power consumption.

Select denoise range of denoise channel. Determined by measuring the noise amplitude of the denoise channel.

touch_pad_denoise_cap_t cap_level

Select internal reference capacitance of denoise channel. Ensure that the denoise readings are closest to the readings of the channel being measured. Use touch_pad_denoise_read_data to get the reading of denoise channel. The equivalent capacitance of the shielded channel can be calculated from the reading of denoise channel.

struct touch_pad_waterproof
