st7123 Touch Screen Controller

The st7123 touchscreen platform allows using the touch screen controllers based on the Sitronix ST7123 chip with ESPHome. The I²C is required to be set up in your configuration for this touchscreen to work.

This controller is used in the M5Stack Tab5 (newer version);

# Example configuration entry
touchscreen:
platform: st7123
id: my_touchscreen
interrupt_pin: GPIOXX
reset_pin: GPIOXX
  • id (Optional, ID): Manually set the ID of this touchscreen.

  • interrupt_pin (Optional, Pin Schema): The touch detection pin. When connected directly to an MCU GPIO, the driver uses it for interrupt-driven operation; otherwise it falls back to polling.

  • reset_pin (Optional, Pin Schema): The chip reset pin.

  • address (Optional, int): The I²C address of the touchscreen controller. Defaults to 0x55.

  • All other options from Touchscreen.

If no calibration is supplied, the driver reads the native coordinate resolution from the controller and uses it automatically.
