5-Wire Resistive
Touchscreens
5-Wire
Resistive touch technology consists of a glass or acrylic panel that is coated
with electrically condictive and resistive layers. The thin layers are separated
by invisible separator dots. When operating, an electrical current moves through
the screen. When pressure is applied to the screen the layers are pressed
together, causing a change in the electrical current and a touch event to be
registered.
5-Wire Resistive type touch screens are generally more
durable than the similiar 4-Wire Resistive type. Although clarity is less than
with other touch screen types, resistive screens are very durable and can be
used in a variety of environments. This type of screen is recommended for
demanding point-of-sale systems, restaurant systems, industrial controls, and
other workplace applications.
