Can someone help me understand this code for the touch sense controller?

https://github.com/eleciawhite/STM32Cube/blob/master/STM32Cube_FW_F3_V1.3.0/Projects/STM32373C_EVAL/Examples/TSC/TSC_BasicAcquisition_Interrupt/Src/main.c what I don't understand are these definitions:

IoConfig.ChannelIOs = TSC_GROUP8_IO1;

IoConfig.SamplingIOs = (TSC_GROUP7_IO4 | TSC_GROUP8_IO4);

IoConfig.ShieldIOs = TSC_GROUP7_IO3;'

Any idea what are these? Shouldn't I just define the channels?

Hello Maryam,

Here is where the TSC_GROUPx_IOx pin masks are defined:

https://github.com/eleciawhite/STM32Cube/blob/897ce598aad7347f9d824719aacf32e93a827098/STM32Cube_FW_F3_V1.3.0/Drivers/STM32F3xx_HAL_Driver/Inc/stm32f3xx_hal_tsc.h

Looking at this document:

https://www.st.com/content/ccc/resource/technical/document/user_manual/group0/d6/4c/20/0d/a1/c1/4c/99/DM00210526/files/DM00210526.pdf/jcr:content/translations/en.DM00210526.pdf

Starting at page 72, looking at the STM32F3 series, you can see the "TSC_GROUPx_IOx" signal names correlates with a particular pin on the boards. On page 90, you can see a hardware diagram of where those pins are mapped to. Hope this helps!

Thank you for your reply. My problem now when I operate the code in the link is, it stops at step #-6- "Check if the acquisition is correct (no max count) "

if (HAL_TSC_GroupGetStatus(&TscHandle, TSC_GROUP1_IDX) == TSC_GROUP_COMPLETED)

The above If condition is never true and thus the acquisition is never completed. Any idea what could be wrong?
