// Write screen resolution to controller's internal mapping I2C_Write(Device, GT911_X_RESOLUTION, SCREEN_WIDTH); I2C_Write(Device, GT911_Y_RESOLUTION, SCREEN_HEIGHT); // Now the controller itself produces transformed coordinates
NTSTATUS EvtHidDeviceReadReport(DEVICE_OBJECT *DeviceObject, PHID_XFER_PACKET Packet) Kmdf Hid Minidriver For Touch I2c Device Calibration
// Forward return HidTransportReadReport(DeviceObject, Packet); Some I2C touch controllers accept calibration commands via HID Feature reports. Your minidriver can intercept USAGE_CALIBRATION writes, re-map them to the I2C device's register set, or override them entirely. 5. Registry-Based vs. ACPI-Based Calibration KMDF drivers cannot easily read large configuration from the registry during a boot-start scenario. The standard approaches: // Write screen resolution to controller's internal mapping
X_screen = A * X_touch + B * Y_touch + C Y_screen = D * X_touch + E * Y_touch + F Where (X_touch, Y_touch) are raw ADC/register values from the I2C device, and (X_screen, Y_screen) are the final HID coordinates reported to the OS. Registry-Based vs
// Clamp to HID Logical range (e.g., 0..32767) calibratedX = max(0, min(32767, calibratedX)); calibratedY = max(0, min(32767, calibratedY));
| Method | Storage Location | Read Access in Driver | Use Case | |--------|----------------|----------------------|-----------| | | \_SB.I2C0.TS1.CALX , CALY | IoGetDeviceProperty + ACPI parser | Firmware-defined, immutable | | Registry | HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\...\Parameters | RtlQueryRegistryValues | User-modifiable, dynamic | | Private IOCTL | Passed from service | EvtIoDeviceControl | Live calibration from UI app |
In this case, your minidriver does no math; it simply configures the device on startup and passes raw reports through. A KMDF HID Minidriver for I2C touch calibration is the only reliable way to achieve system-wide, pre-logon touch accuracy. It requires deep understanding of HID report parsing, IRQL constraints, and I2C transport semantics. When implemented correctly, it transforms a "jumpy, misaligned" touch panel into a precision input device indistinguishable from native USB HID—all at the kernel level, without a single user-space process.
