# Touch Element

[中文]

## Overview

The Touch Element Library is a highly abstracted element library designed on the basis of the touch sensor driver. The library provides a unified and user-friendly software interface to quickly build capacitive touch sensor applications. For more information about the touch sensor driver API, see Touch Sensor.

### Architecture

The Touch Element library configures touch sensor peripherals via the touch sensor driver. However, some necessary hardware parameters should be passed to `touch_element_install()` and will be configured automatically only after calling `touch_element_start()`. This sequential order is essential because configuring these parameters has a significant impact on the run-time system. Therefore, they must be configured after calling the start function to ensure the system functions properly.

These parameters include touch channel threshold, driver-level of waterproof shield sensor, etc. The Touch Element library sets the touch sensor interrupt and the esp_timer routine up, and the hardware information of the touch sensor (channel state, channel number) will be obtained in the touch sensor interrupt service routine. When the specified channel event occurs, the hardware information is passed to the esp_timer callback routine, which then dispatches the touch sensor channel information to the touch elements (such as button, slider, etc.). The library then runs a specified algorithm to update the touch element's state or calculate its position and dispatches the result accordingly.

So when using the Touch Element library, you are relieved from the implementation details of the touch sensor peripheral. The library handles most of the hardware information and passes the more meaningful messages to the event handler routine.

The workflow of the Touch Element library is illustrated in the picture below.

## Terminology

The terms used in relation to the Touch Element library are given below.

Term | Definition

Touch sensor | Touch sensor peripheral inside the chip
Touch channel | Touch sensor channels inside the touch sensor peripheral
Touch pad | Off-chip physical solder pad, generally inside the PCB
De-noise channel | Internal de-noise channel, which is always Channel 0 and is reserved
Shield sensor | One of the waterproof sensors for detecting droplets in small areas and compensating for the influence of water drops on measurements
Guard sensor | One of the waterproof sensors for detecting extensive wading and to temporarily disable the touch sensor
Shield channel | The channel that waterproof shield sensor connected to, which is always Channel 14

Touch sensor application system components

### Touch Sensor Signal

Each touch sensor is able to provide the following types of signals:

- Raw: The Raw signal is the unfiltered signal from the touch sensor.

- Smooth: The Smooth signal is a filtered version of the Raw signal via an internal hardware filter.

- Benchmark: The Benchmark signal is also a filtered signal that filters out extremely low-frequency noise.

All of these signals can be obtained using touch sensor driver API.

Touch sensor signals

### Touch Sensor Signal Threshold

The Touch Sensor Threshold value is a configurable threshold value used to determine when a touch sensor is touched or not. When the difference between the Smooth signal and the Benchmark signal becomes greater than the threshold value (i.e., `(smooth - benchmark) > threshold`), the touch channel's state will be changed and a touch interrupt will be triggered simultaneously.

Touch sensor signal threshold

### Sensitivity

Important performance parameter of the touch sensor, the larger it is, the better touch the sensor performs. It could be calculated by the format below:

\[Sensitivity = \frac{Signal_{press} - Signal_{release}}{Signal_{release}} = \frac{Signal_{delta}}{Signal_{benchmark}}\]

### Waterproof

Waterproof is the hardware feature of a touch sensor which has a guard sensor and shield sensor (always connect to Channel 14) that has the ability to resist a degree of influence of water drop and detect the water stream.

### Touch Button

The touch button consumes one channel of the touch sensor, and it looks like as the picture below:

Touch button

### Touch Slider

The touch slider consumes several channels (at least three channels) of the touch sensor, the more channels consumed, the higher resolution and accuracy position it performs. The touch slider looks like as the picture below:

Touch slider

### Touch Matrix

The touch matrix button consumes several channels (at least 2 + 2 = 4 channels), and it gives a solution to use fewer channels and get more buttons. ESP32-S2 supports up to 49 buttons. The touch matrix button looks like as the picture below:

Touch matrix

## Touch Element Library Usage

Using this library should follow the initialization flow below:

1. To initialize the Touch Element library by calling `touch_element_install()`.

2. To initialize touch elements (button/slider etc) by calling `touch_xxxx_install()`.

3. To create a new element instance by calling `touch_xxxx_create()`.

4. To subscribe events by calling `touch_xxxx_subscribe_event()`.

5. To choose a dispatch method by calling `touch_xxxx_set_dispatch_method()` that tells the library how to notify you while the subscribed event occurs.

6. If dispatch by callback, call `touch_xxxx_set_callback()` to set the event handler function.

7. To start the Touch Element library by calling `touch_element_start()`.

8. If dispatch by callback, the callback will be called by the driver core when an event happens, no need to do anything; If dispatch by event task, create an event task and call `touch_element_message_receive()` to obtain messages in a loop.

9. (Optional) If you want to suspend the Touch Element run-time system or for some reason that could not obtain the touch element message, `touch_element_stop()` should be called to suspend the Touch Element system and then resume it by calling `touch_element_start()` again.

In code, the flow above may look like as follows:

    static touch_xxx_handle_t element_handle; //Declare a touch element handle

    //Define the subscribed event handler
    void event_handler(touch_xxx_handle_t out_handle, touch_xxx_message_t out_message, void *arg)
    {
        //Event handler logic
    }

    void app_main()
    {
        //Using the default initializer to config Touch Element library
        touch_elem_global_config_t global_config = TOUCH_ELEM_GLOBAL_DEFAULT_CONFIG();
        touch_element_install(&global_config);

        //Using the default initializer to config Touch elements
        touch_xxx_global_config_t elem_global_config = TOUCH_XXXX_GLOBAL_DEFAULT_CONFIG();
        touch_xxx_install(&elem_global_config);

        //Create a new instance
        touch_xxx_config_t element_config = {
            ...
            ...
        };
        touch_xxx_create(&element_config, &element_handle);

        //Subscribe the specified events by using the event mask
        touch_xxx_subscribe_event(element_handle, TOUCH_ELEM_EVENT_ON_PRESS | TOUCH_ELEM_EVENT_ON_RELEASE, NULL);

        //Choose CALLBACK as the dispatch method
        touch_xxx_set_dispatch_method(element_handle, TOUCH_ELEM_DISP_CALLBACK);

        //Register the callback routine
        touch_xxx_set_callback(element_handle, event_handler);

        //Start Touch Element library processing
        touch_element_start();
    }

### Initialization

1. To initialize the Touch Element library, you have to configure the touch sensor peripheral and Touch Element library by calling `touch_element_install()` with `touch_elem_global_config_t`, the default initializer is available in `TOUCH_ELEM_GLOBAL_DEFAULT_CONFIG()` and this default configuration is suitable for the most general application scene, and it is suggested not to change the default configuration before fully understanding Touch Sensor peripheral because some changes might bring several impacts to the system.

2. To initialize the specified element, all the elements will not work before its constructor `touch_xxxx_install()` is called so as to save memory, so you have to call the constructor of each used touch element respectively, to set up the specified element.

### Touch Element Instance Startup

1. To create a new touch element instance, call `touch_xxxx_create()`, select a channel, and provide its Sensitivity value for the new element instance.

2. To subscribe to events, call `touch_xxxx_subscribe_event()`. The Touch Element library offers several events, and the event mask is available in components/touch_element/include/touch_element/touch_element.h. You can use these event masks to subscribe to specific events individually or combine them to subscribe to multiple events.

3. To configure the dispatch method, use `touch_xxxx_set_dispatch_method()`. The Touch Element library provides two dispatch methods: `TOUCH_ELEM_DISP_EVENT` and `TOUCH_ELEM_DISP_CALLBACK`. These methods allow you to obtain the touch element message and handle it using different approaches.

### Events Processing

If `TOUCH_ELEM_DISP_EVENT` dispatch method is configured, you need to start up an event handler task to obtain the touch element message, all the elements' raw message could be obtained by calling `touch_element_message_receive()`, then extract the element-class-specific message by calling the corresponding message decoder with `touch_xxxx_get_message()` to get the touch element's extracted message; If `TOUCH_ELEM_DISP_CALLBACK` dispatch method is configured, you need to pass an event handler by calling `touch_xxxx_set_callback()` before the touch element starts working, all the element's extracted message will be passed to the event handler function.

Warning

Since the event handler function runs on the core of the element library, i.e., in the esp_timer callback routine, please avoid performing operations that may cause blocking or delays, such as calling `vTaskDelay()`.

In code, the events handle procedure may look like as follows:

    /* ---------------------------------------------- TOUCH_ELEM_DISP_EVENT ----------------------------------------------- */
    void element_handler_task(void *arg)
    {
        touch_elem_message_t element_message;
        while(1) {
            if (touch_element_message_receive(&element_message, Timeout) == ESP_OK) {
                const touch_xxxx_message_t *extracted_message = touch_xxxx_get_message(&element_message); //Decode message
                ... //Event handler logic
            }
        }
    }
    void app_main()
    {
        ...

        touch_xxxx_set_dispatch_method(element_handle, TOUCH_ELEM_DISP_EVENT);  //Set TOUCH_ELEM_DISP_EVENT as the dispatch method
        xTaskCreate(&element_handler_task, "element_handler_task", 2048, NULL, 5, NULL);  //Create a handler task

        ...
    }
    /* -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- */

    ...
    /* ---------------------------------------------- TOUCH_ELEM_DISP_CALLBACK ----------------------------------------------- */
    void element_handler(touch_xxxx_handle_t out_handle, touch_xxxx_message_t out_message, void *arg)
    {
        //Event handler logic
    }

    void app_main()
    {
        ...

        touch_xxxx_set_dispatch_method(element_handle, TOUCH_ELEM_DISP_CALLBACK);  //Set TOUCH_ELEM_DISP_CALLBACK as the dispatch method
        touch_xxxx_set_callback(element_handle, element_handler);  //Register an event handler function

        ...
    }
    /* -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- */

### Waterproof Usage

1. The waterproof shield sensor is always-on after Touch Element waterproof is initialized, however, the waterproof guard sensor is optional, hence if the you do not need the guard sensor, `TOUCH_WATERPROOF_GUARD_NOUSE` has to be passed to `touch_element_waterproof_install()` by the configuration struct.

2. To associate the touch element with the guard sensor, pass the touch element's handle to the Touch Element waterproof's masked list by calling `touch_element_waterproof_add()`. By associating a touch element with the Guard sensor, the touch element will be disabled when the guard sensor is triggered by a stream of water so as to protect the touch element.

The Touch Element Waterproof example is available in peripherals/touch_sensor/touch_element/touch_element_waterproof directory.

In code, the waterproof configuration may look as follows:

    void app_main()
    {
        ...

        touch_xxxx_install();                 //Initialize instance (button, slider, etc)
        touch_xxxx_create(&element_handle);  //Create a new Touch element

        ...

        touch_element_waterproof_install();              //Initialize Touch Element waterproof
        touch_element_waterproof_add(element_handle);   //Let an element associate with the guard sensor

        ...
    }

### Wakeup from Light/Deep-sleep Mode

Only Touch Button can be configured as a wake-up source.

Light- or Deep-sleep modes are both supported to be wakened up by a touch sensor. For the Light-sleep mode, any installed touch button can wake it up. But only the sleep button can wake up from Deep-sleep mode, and the touch sensor will do a calibration immediately, the reference value will be calibrated to a wrong value if our finger does not remove timely. Though the wrong reference value recovers after the finger removes away and has no effect on the driver logic, if you do not want to see a wrong reference value while waking up from Deep-sleep mode, you can call `touch_element_sleep_enable_wakeup_calibration()` to disable the wakeup calibration.

The Touch Element Wakeup example is available in system/light_sleep directory.

    void app_main()
    {
        ...
        touch_element_install();
        touch_button_install();                 //Initialize the touch button
        touch_button_create(&element_handle);  //Create a new Touch element

        ...

        // ESP_ERROR_CHECK(touch_element_enable_light_sleep(&sleep_config));
        ESP_ERROR_CHECK(touch_element_enable_deep_sleep(button_handle[0], &sleep_config));
        // ESP_ERROR_CHECK(touch_element_sleep_enable_wakeup_calibration(button_handle[0], false)); // (optional) Disable wakeup calibration to prevent updating the benchmark to a wrong value

        touch_element_start();

        ...
    }

  Get current event message of touch element instance.

  This function will receive the touch element message (handle, event type, etc...) from te_event_give(). It will block until a touch element event or a timeout occurs.

  Parameters:

    - element_message -- [out] Touch element event message structure

    - ticks_to_wait -- [in] Number of FreeRTOS ticks to block for waiting event

  Returns:

    - ESP_OK: Successfully received touch element event

    - ESP_ERR_INVALID_STATE: Touch element library is not initialized

    - ESP_ERR_INVALID_ARG: element_message is null

    - ESP_ERR_TIMEOUT: Timed out waiting for event

esp_err_t touch_element_waterproof_install(const touch_elem_waterproof_config_t *waterproof_config)

  Touch element waterproof initialization.

  This function enables the hardware waterproof, then touch element system uses Shield-Sensor and Guard-Sensor to mitigate the influence of water-drop and water-stream.

  Note

  If the waterproof function is used, Shield-Sensor can not be disabled and it will use channel 14 as it's internal channel. Hence, the user can not use channel 14 for another propose. And the Guard-Sensor is not necessary since it is optional.

  Note

  Shield-Sensor: It always uses channel 14 as the shield channel, so user must connect the channel 14 and Shield-Layer in PCB since it will generate a synchronous signal automatically

  Note

  Guard-Sensor: This function is optional. If used, the user must connect the guard channel and Guard-Ring in PCB. Any channels user wants to protect should be added into Guard-Ring in PCB.

  Parameters:

    waterproof_config -- [in] Waterproof configuration

  Returns:

    - ESP_OK: Successfully initialized

    - ESP_ERR_INVALID_STATE: Touch element library is not initialized

    - ESP_ERR_INVALID_ARG: waterproof_config is null or invalid Guard-Sensor channel

    - ESP_ERR_NO_MEM: Insufficient memory

void touch_element_waterproof_uninstall(void)

  Release resources allocated using touch_element_waterproof_install()

esp_err_t touch_element_waterproof_add(touch_elem_handle_t element_handle)

  Add a masked handle to protect while Guard-Sensor has been triggered.

  This function will add an application handle (button, slider, etc...) as a masked handle. While Guard-Sensor has been triggered, waterproof function will start working and lock the application internal state. While the influence of water is reduced, the application will be unlock and reset into IDLE state.

  Note

  The waterproof protection logic must follow the real circuit in PCB, it means that all of the channels inside the input handle must be inside the Guard-Ring in real circuit.
