  1. MSID 7

FSP uses 2 packets (8 Bytes) to represent Absolute Position. so we have PACKET NUMBER to identify packets.

If PACKET NUMBER is 0, the packet is Packet 1. If PACKET NUMBER is 1, the packet is Packet 2. Please count this number in program.

MSID6 special packet will be enable at the same time when enable MSID 7.

        Bit0 => Left Button, 1 is pressed, 0 is not pressed.
Byte 2: X coordinate (xpos[9:2])
Byte 3: Y coordinate (ypos[9:2])
Byte 4: Bit1~Bit0 => Y coordinate (xpos[1:0])
        Bit3~Bit2 => X coordinate (ypos[1:0])
        Bit4 => 4th mouse button(forward one page)
        Bit5 => 5th mouse button(backward one page)
        Bit6 => scroll left button
        Bit7 => scroll right button

When one of the two fingers is up, the device will output four consecutive MFMC#0 report packets with zero X and Y to represent 1st finger is up or four consecutive MFMC#1 report packets with zero X and Y to represent that the 2nd finger is up. On the other hand, if both fingers are up, the device will output four consecutive single-finger, absolute coordinate(SFAC) packets with zero X and Y.

        0xc0 => region ID
Byte 4: The second parameter for the received message:
        0xba => N/A

Sample sequence of Multi-finger, Multi-coordinates mode:

That is, when the device is in MFMC mode, the host will receive interleaved absolute coordinate packets for each finger.

15.7. PS/2 Command Set

FSP supports basic PS/2 commanding set and modes, refer to following URL for details about PS/2 commands:

http://www.computer-engineering.org/ps2mouse/

15.8. Programming Sequence for Determining Packet Parsing Flow

  1. Identify FSP by reading device ID(0x00) and version(0x01) register

  2. For FSP version < STL3888 Cx, determine number of buttons by reading the ‘test mode status’ (0x20) register:

    buttons = reg[0x20] & 0x30
    
    if buttons == 0x30 or buttons == 0x20:
            # two/four buttons
            Refer to 'Finger Sensing Pad PS/2 Mouse Intellimouse'
            section A for packet parsing detail(ignore byte 4, bit ~ 7)
    elif buttons == 0x10:
            # 6 buttons
            Refer to 'Finger Sensing Pad PS/2 Mouse Intellimouse'
            section B for packet parsing detail
    elif buttons == 0x00:
            # 6 buttons
            Refer to 'Finger Sensing Pad PS/2 Mouse Intellimouse'
            section A for packet parsing detail
    
  3. For FSP version >= STL3888 Cx:

    Refer to ‘Finger Sensing Pad PS/2 Mouse Intellimouse’ section A for packet parsing detail (ignore byte 4, bit ~ 7)

15.9. Programming Sequence for Register Reading/Writing

Register inversion requirement:

Following values needed to be inverted(the ‘~’ operator in C) before being sent to FSP:

0xe8, 0xe9, 0xee, 0xf2, 0xf3 and 0xff.

Register swapping requirement:

Following values needed to have their higher 4 bits and lower 4 bits being swapped before being sent to FSP:

10, 20, 40, 60, 80, 100 and 200.

Register reading sequence:

  1. send 0xf3 PS/2 command to FSP;
  2. send 0x66 PS/2 command to FSP;
  3. send 0x88 PS/2 command to FSP;
  4. send 0xf3 PS/2 command to FSP;

5. if the register address being to read is not required to be inverted(refer to the ‘Register inversion requirement’ section), goto step 6

  1. send 0x68 PS/2 command to FSP;
  2. send the inverted register address to FSP and goto step 8;

6. if the register address being to read is not required to be swapped(refer to the ‘Register swapping requirement’ section), goto step 7

  1. send 0xcc PS/2 command to FSP;
  2. send the swapped register address to FSP and goto step 8;
  1. send 0x66 PS/2 command to FSP;
  1. send the original register address to FSP and goto step 8;
  1. send 0xe9(status request) PS/2 command to FSP;

9. the 4th byte of the response read from FSP should be the requested register value(?? indicates don’t care byte):

host: 0xe9
3888: 0xfa (??) (??) (val)
  • Note that since the Cx release, the hardware will return 1’s complement of the register value at the 3rd byte of status request result:

    host: 0xe9
    3888: 0xfa (??) (~val) (val)
    

Register writing sequence:

  1. send 0xf3 PS/2 command to FSP;

2. if the register address being to write is not required to be inverted(refer to the ‘Register inversion requirement’ section), goto step 3

  1. send 0x74 PS/2 command to FSP;
  2. send the inverted register address to FSP and goto step 5;

3. if the register address being to write is not required to be swapped(refer to the ‘Register swapping requirement’ section), goto step 4

  1. send 0x77 PS/2 command to FSP;
  2. send the swapped register address to FSP and goto step 5;
  1. send 0x55 PS/2 command to FSP;
  1. send the register address to FSP and goto step 5;
  1. send 0xf3 PS/2 command to FSP;

6. if the register value being to write is not required to be inverted(refer to the ‘Register inversion requirement’ section), goto step 7

  1. send 0x47 PS/2 command to FSP;
  2. send the inverted register value to FSP and goto step 9;

7. if the register value being to write is not required to be swapped(refer to the ‘Register swapping requirement’ section), goto step 8

  1. send 0x44 PS/2 command to FSP;
  2. send the swapped register value to FSP and goto step 9;
  1. send 0x33 PS/2 command to FSP;
  1. send the register value to FSP;
  1. the register writing sequence is completed.
  • Since the Cx release, the hardware will return 1’s complement of the register value at the 3rd byte of status request result. Host can optionally send another 0xe9 (status request) PS/2 command to FSP at the end of register writing to verify that the register writing operation is successful (?? indicates don’t care byte):

    host: 0xe9
    3888: 0xfa (??) (~val) (val)
    

15.10. Programming Sequence for Page Register Reading/Writing

In order to overcome the limitation of maximum number of registers supported, the hardware separates register into different groups called ‘pages.’ Each page is able to include up to 255 registers.

The default page after power up is 0x82; therefore, if one has to get access to register 0x8301, one has to use following sequence to switch to page 0x83, then start reading/writing from/to offset 0x01 by using the register read/write sequence described in previous section.

Page register reading sequence:

  1. send 0xf3 PS/2 command to FSP;
  2. send 0x66 PS/2 command to FSP;
  3. send 0x88 PS/2 command to FSP;
  4. send 0xf3 PS/2 command to FSP;
  5. send 0x83 PS/2 command to FSP;
  6. send 0x88 PS/2 command to FSP;
  7. send 0xe9(status request) PS/2 command to FSP;
  8. the response read from FSP should be the requested page value.

Page register writing sequence:

  1. send 0xf3 PS/2 command to FSP;
  2. send 0x38 PS/2 command to FSP;
  3. send 0x88 PS/2 command to FSP;
  4. send 0xf3 PS/2 command to FSP;

5. if the page address being written is not required to be inverted(refer to the ‘Register inversion requirement’ section), goto step 6

  1. send 0x47 PS/2 command to FSP;
  2. send the inverted page address to FSP and goto step 9;

6. if the page address being written is not required to be swapped(refer to the ‘Register swapping requirement’ section), goto step 7

  1. send 0x44 PS/2 command to FSP;
  2. send the swapped page address to FSP and goto step 9;
  1. send 0x33 PS/2 command to FSP;
  2. send the page address to FSP;
  3. the page register writing sequence is completed.

15.11. Gesture ID

Unlike other devices which sends multiple fingers’ coordinates to host, FSP processes multiple fingers’ coordinates internally and convert them into a 8 bits integer, namely ‘Gesture ID.’ Following is a list of supported gesture IDs:

ID Description
0x86 2 finger straight up
0x82 2 finger straight down
0x80 2 finger straight right
0x84 2 finger straight left
0x8f 2 finger zoom in
0x8b 2 finger zoom out
0xc0 2 finger curve, counter clockwise
0xc4 2 finger curve, clockwise
0x2e 3 finger straight up
0x2a 3 finger straight down
0x28 3 finger straight right
0x2c 3 finger straight left
0x38 palm

15.12. Register Listing

Registers are represented in 16 bits values. The higher 8 bits represent the page address and the lower 8 bits represent the relative offset within that particular page. Refer to the ‘Programming Sequence for Page Register Reading/Writing’ section for instructions on how to change current page address:

offset width           default r/w     name

       enabled prior to write: 05 06 07 08 09 0c 0f 10 11 12 16 17 18 23 2e
