DESCRIPTION
The PixiPoint
TM
Z mouse encoder
is a cost-effective, high-
functionality IC designed to
interface the CTS 106, 108 and
109 sensors to the PS/2 port. Ideal
for laptop/palmtop use, the low
power PixiPoint
TM
Z offers an
advanced algorithm for enhanced
motion control. The IC also
enables click, double-click,
MouseWheel action and slow drag
without the need for special
drivers. The IC provides an extra
port for hot-plug connection of an
external pointing device, including
those with built-in Mousewheel.
Both the embedded sensor and
the external device can be
operated concurrently.
The PixiPoint
TM
Z utilizes a special
signal conditioning circuit (US and
International patent pending) which
enables a low cost, simple and real
estate-saving implementation. Just
a few low tolerance external
components are needed.
The IC implements typically
consumes less than 3mA, making it
suitable for use in battery-operated
systems.
PS/2 communication is
bidirectional at 10 kbps. The IC, a
CMOS device operating at 4 MHz,
is compatible with both the IBM
and Microsoft two-button and the
Logitech three-button mouse
protocols. It implements all
commands from and to the system,
as defined in the IBM PS/2 Mouse
Communication Protocol. Custom
versions are also available to suit a
range of applications.

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
The UR7HCPXZ-P440 consists
functionally of five major sections
(see Functional Diagram, previous
page). These are the PixiPoint
TM
Z
Interface, the 16-Bit Timer, the
Oscillator Circuit, the PS/2
Communication Port and the 8042
Emulation Port. All sections
communicate with each other and
operate concurrently.
SIGNAL CONDITIONING CIRCUIT
The PixiPoint
TM
Z sensor is a flexible
(but very firm) “beam” with four
Strain Gages – one on each of the
sides. If the force is applied
precisely in the X direction, then it
will produce a change of resistance
of only the two X gages. Force in
the Y direction will cause changes
only in the Y gages. One of the
pair of the gages will increase,
while the other will concurrently
decrease the resistance.
If the user presses on the sensor
from the top (Z Axis), all of the
strain gages will decrease the
resistance.
When the test current is passed
through the gages, these resistance
changes are converted into the
voltage changes. These signals are
very small, typically under 1 mV Full
Scale.
The Signal Conditioning Circuit
(patent pending) balances and
amplifies the incoming signals for
digitizing by a built-in A/D
converter.

SIGNAL CONDITIONING CIRCUIT (CON’T)
Semtech’s proprietary circuit can correct a significant imbalance between
the gages in each X and Y pair (+/- 25%), allowing relaxed manufacturing
tolerances for the sensors, interconnecting cabling, and temperature-shift
induced errors (no performance degradation over the full operating
temperature range and for large temperature gradients between the
paired gages).

BUILT-IN FEATURES
The PixiPoint
TM
Z enables click,
double-click, MouseWheel action
and slow drag without the need for
special drivers. A standard PS/2
mouse driver can be utilized.
PS/2 COMMUNICATION
At start-up or upon receiving a reset command, the PixiPoint
TM
Z will wait
between 300 and 500 milliseconds before sending an AAh to the host
followed by a device ID of 00h. Then the IC will set itself to its default
values, i.e. Incremental Stream Mode with 1:1 scaling, and a report rate
of 100 Hz. The device will then disable itself until a command is sent from
the host. PixiPoint
TM
Z has responded or until 25 milliseconds have
elapsed.
EXTERNAL PS/2 PORT
The UR7HCPXZ-P440 offers an external PS/2 mouse port. Data from this
port is seamlessly merged with data from the internal pointing device.
External devices, including those utilizing a MouseWheel, can be hot-plug
connected.
ERROR HANDLING
For every correct command or parameter received from the host, the
UR7HCPXZ-P440 sends an Acknowledge (FAh). If an invalid command or
parameter is received, the UR7HCPXZ-P440 issues a Resend Request
(FEh). If an invalid input is again received, the device transmits an Error
Code (FCh) to the host. Both error and Resend request responses are sent
by the device within 25 milliseconds. The host may not issue any new
commands until either the PixiPoint
TM
Z has responded or until 25
milliseconds have elapsed.

PS/2 DATA FORMAT
The following table shows the
data report format. Each of the two
position values (X and Y) is
expressed as a 9-bit Two’s
Complement integer with the most
significant bit (the sign bit) stored
separately in Byte 1. Z value
(wheel or scroll) is expressed as an
8-bit Two’s complement integer.
If there is an overflow of the
accumulator, the maximum positive
or negative count is reported
and the corresponding overflow
bit is set.
