The MicroTouch™ EX II Series Controllers bring flexibility and feature-rich
functionality to capacitive and resistive touch screen applications. This
high performance electronics platform is based on the innovative MicroTouch™
EX II ASIC, designed to provide higher resolution touch coordinates, on-chip
RAM, and a wider operating temperature range. With expanded regulatory
approvals, improved power modes, and enhanced ESD and EMI protection, this
controller series is a robust solution for popular touch applications.
The EX II series showcases a number of innovative new features. Standard
firmware loaded at the factory can be easily replaced in the future with
downloadable, newer revisions containing additional functionality. This
field upgrade capability means access to the latest 3M Touch Systems
firmware features with minimal downtime for upgrades.
The EX II series supports both ClearTek™ capacitive and 5-wire resistive
touch screens, using the same board size and mounting hole locations. System
manufacturers that start with one touch screen technology can move to the
other using the same electronic hardware footprint and feature-rich software
drivers, simplifying the transition and shortening development cycles.
Considered the premium controller for resistive systems, the EX II enables
5-wire resistive touch screens to work in “current-driven” mode, where the X
and Y coordinates are calculated with a single measurement, shortening touch
response time to 8 ms (typical).
