DESCRIPTION
The TSC2008 is a very low-power touch screen
controller designed to work with power-sensitive,
handheld applications that are based on advanced
low-voltage processors. It works with a supply voltage
as low as 1.2V, which can be supplied by a
single-cell battery. It contains a complete, ultra-low
power, 12-bit, analog-to-digital (A/D) resistive touch
screen converter, including drivers and the control
logic to measure touch pressure.
Simple, Command-Based User Interface:

Low Power:
In addition to these standard features, the TSC2008
offers
preprocessing
of
the

screen
measurements to reduce bus loading, thus reducing
the consumption of host processor resources that can
then be redirected to more critical functions.
