P0071 Datasheet, PDF (16/43 Pages) Altera Corporation – DE2-115 with LCD Touch Panel and Camera
3.3 Using the 8” LCD Touch Screen Module
The tPad features an 8-inch Amorphous-TFT-LCD panel. The LCD Touch Screen module offers
resolution of (800x600) to provide users the best display quality for developing applications. The
LCD panel supports 18-bit parallel RGB data interface.
The tPad is also equipped with an Analog Devices AD7843 touch screen digitizer chip. The
AD7843 is a 12-bit analog to digital converter (ADC) for digitizing x and y coordinates of touch
points applied to the touch screen. The coordinates of the touch points can be read through the serial
port interface on the AD7843.
To display images on the LCD panel correctly, the RGB color data along with the data enable and
clock signals must act according to the timing specification of the LCD touch panel as shown in
Table 3-1.
Table 3-2 gives the pin assignment information of the LCD touch panel.
