                    Microchip Technology introduces their universal touch screen controllers
    

AR1000 Touch Screen Controllers The mTouch™ AR1000 series resistive touch screen controller from Microchip is a complete, easy to integrate, cost effective and universal touch screen controller chip solution. The AR1000 series is designed for high volume, small form factor touch solutions with quick time to market requirements.

The AR1000 controllers provide universal 4-, 5- and 8-wire support, as well as support for SPI, I²C and UART communication interfaces. They are well suited for resistive-touch designs in the consumer (mobile communication devices, PDAs, GPS, media players, and printers), medical (patient-monitoring equipment), industrial (kiosks, touch-screen monitors, portable instruments, and point-of-sale terminals), and automotive markets (navigation systems).
