Touch Element

Overview

Touch Element library provides a high level abstraction for building capacitive touch applications. The library’s implementation gives a unified and friendly software interface thus allows for smooth and easy capacitive touch application development. The library is implemented atop the touch sensor driver (please see Touch sensor driver API Reference for more information regarding low level API usage).

Architecture

Touch Element library configures touch sensor peripherals via touch sensor driver. While some necessary hardware parameters should be passed to touch_element_install() and will be configured automatically only after calling touch_element_start(), because it will make great influence on the run-time system.

These parameters include touch channel threshold, waterproof shield sensor driver-level and etc. Touch Element library sets touch sensor interrupt and esp-timer routine up and the hardware information of touch sensor (channel state, channel number) will be obtained in touch sensor interrupt service routine. When the specified channel event occurs, and those hardware information will be passed to the esp-timer callback routine, esp-timer callback routine will dispatch the touch sensor channel information to the touch elements(such as button, slider etc). Then runs the specified algorithm to update touch element’s state or calculate its position, dispatch the result to user.

So using Touch Element library, user doesn’t need to care about the implementation of touch sensor peripheral, Touch Element library will handle most of the hardware information and pass the more meaningful messages to user event handler routine.

Workflow of Touch Element library is illustrated in the picture below.

Touch Sensor Signal

Each touch senor 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.

../../_images/te_signal.png

Touch sensor signals

Touch Sensor Threshold

The Touch Sensor Threshold value is a configurable threshold value used to determine when a touch sensor is touched or not. When 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.

../../_images/te_threshold.svg

Touch sensor signal threshold

Sensitivity

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

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

Waterproof

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

Touch Button

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

../../_images/te_button.svg

Touch button

Touch Slider

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

../../_images/te_slider.svg

Touch slider

Touch Matrix

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

Touch Element Library Usage

Using this library should follow the initialization flow below:

  1. To initialize 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 occur

  6. (If dispatch by callback) Call touch_xxxx_set_callback() to set the event handler function.

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

  8. (If dispatch by callback) The callback will be called by the driver core when event happen, 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 user wants 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 Touch Element library, user has to configure 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 users are 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 user has 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 by calling touch_xxxx_create(), selects channel and passes its Sensitivity for the new element instance.

  2. To subscribe events by calling touch_xxxx_subscribe_event(), there several events in Touch Element library and the event mask is available on components/touch_element/include/touch_element/touch_element.h, user could use those events mask to subscribe specified event or combine them to subscribe multiple events.

  3. To configure dispatch method by calling touch_xxxx_subscribe_event(), there are two dispatch methods in Touch Element library, one is TOUCH_ELEM_DISP_EVENT, the other one is TOUCH_ELEM_DISP_CALLBACK, it means that user could use two methods to obtain the touch element message and handle it.

Events Processing

If TOUCH_ELEM_DISP_EVENT dispatch method is configured, user need to startup 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 (touch_xxxx_get_message()) to get the touch element’s extracted message; If TOUCH_ELEM_DISP_CALLBACK dispatch method is configured, user need to pass an event handler by calling touch_xxxx_set_callback() before the touch elem starts working, all the element’s extracted message will be passed to the event handler function.

警告

Since the event handler function runs on the library driver core(The context located in esp-timer callback routine), user should not do something that attempts to block or delay, such as call 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. To initialize Touch Element waterproof, the waterproof shield sensor is always-on after Touch Element waterproof is initialized, however the waterproof guard sensor is optional, hence if user doesn’t 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_element/touch_element_waterproof directory.

In code, the waterproof configuration may look like 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 a element associates with guard sensor

    ...
}

Wakeup from Light/Deep Sleep

Only Touch Button can be configured as wake up source.

Light or deep sleep are both supported to be waken up by touch sensor. For the light sleep, any installed touch button can wake it up. But only the sleep button can wake up from deep sleep, and the touch sensor will do a calibration immediately, the reference value will be calibrated to a wrong value if our finger doesn’t remove timely. Though the wrong reference value will recover after the finger remove away and have no affect to the driver logic, if you don’t want to see a wrong reference value while waking up from deep sleep, you can call touch_element_sleep_enable_wakeup_calibration() to disable the wakeup calibration.

The Touch Element Wakeup example is available in example/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 base line to a wrong value

    touch_element_start();

    ...
}

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.

备注

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.

备注

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
