Basic driver for TT21100 touchscreen drivers. The ESP32-S3 Box dev board uses it.

This driver depends on:

• Adafruit CircuitPython
• Bus Device

Please ensure all dependencies are available on the CircuitPython filesystem. This is easily achieved by downloading the Adafruit library and driver bundle or individual libraries can be installed using circup.

On supported GNU/Linux systems like the Raspberry Pi, you can install the driver locally from PyPI. To install for current user:

pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-tt21100

To install system-wide (this may be required in some cases):

sudo pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-tt21100

To install in a virtual environment in your current project:

mkdir project-name && cd project-name
python3 -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate
pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-tt21100

Make sure that you have circup installed in your Python environment. Install it with the following command if necessary:

pip3 install circup

With circup installed and your CircuitPython device connected use the following command to install:

circup install adafruit_tt21100

Or the following command to update an existing version:

circup update

import time
import busio
import board
import adafruit_tt21100

# Create library object (named "tt") using a Bus I2C port
i2c = busio.I2C(board.SCL, board.SDA)

tt = adafruit_tt21100.TT21100(i2c)

while True:
    # if the screen is being touched print the touches
    if tt.touched:
        print(tt.touches)

    time.sleep(0.15)
