1.  4-wire resistive:  Are applicable when cost is the paramount consideration but suffer from two issues.   

  • Susceptibility to drift caused by temperature and humidity variations.
  • Failure caused by top layer damage.

2.  5-Wire resistive:  Are used when failure from top layer damage or excessive use is unacceptable.  Click for detail.

  • Ensure system reliability.  Protects top layer of 4 & 8-wire touch screen from damage inducing failure.

2.  With graphic overlay:
  • Print static buttons on overlay detectable by touch screen.
  • Ensure system reliability. Protects top layer of 4 & 8 wire touch screen from from damage inducing failure.

3. Standalone.
