maXTouch low-level component

See Quick start guide for the maXTouch component.

This component provides low-level read/write access to the configuration and data registers on a maXTouch device. It has only been tested on mxt143E parts, but it should be easy to add support for other maXTouch devices. This is a common API for all supported architectures in ASF.

The component is not interrupt driven and the maXTouch device has to be polled to see if there are any pending messages, and the mxt_read_message function reads out the messages pending. For reading out only touch events, the mxt_read_touch_event function can be used. As mentioned the component is not interrupt driven, but by configuring a pin change interrupt on the CHG pin, the application can receive interrupts when there are messages pending.
