:description: Instructions for setting up cst816 touch screen controller with ESPHome
:image: cst816.jpg
:keywords: CST816, T-DISPLAY, AMOLED
The ``cst816`` touchscreen platform allows using the touch screen controllers based on the CST816 series of chips with ESPHome.
The :ref:`I²C <i2c>` is required to be set up in your configuration for this touchscreen to work.
This controller is used in the Lilygo T-Display S3 AMOLED. The component should work with CST816T, CST816S, CST820, CST826 and CST716
controller chips.

Base Touchscreen Configuration
------------------------------
.. code-block:: yaml
# Example configuration entry
touchscreen:
platform: cst816
id: my_touchscreen
interrupt_pin: GPIOXX
reset_pin: GPIOXX
Configuration variables:
************************
- **id** (*Optional*, :ref:`config-id`): Manually set the ID of this touchscreen.
- **interrupt_pin** (*Optional*, :ref:`Pin Schema <config-pin_schema>`): The touch detection pin.
- **reset_pin** (*Optional*, :ref:`Pin Schema <config-pin_schema>`): The chip reset pin.
- **skip_probe** (*Optional*, boolean): Skip reading the chip ID on startup. May be required for some variants (e.g. CST816S) that do not respond to i2c commands except after touches are registered. Defaults to false.
- All other options from :ref:`Touchscreen <config-touchscreen>`.
Binary Sensor
-------------
In addition to touch areas on the screen configured through the :ref:`Touchscreen <config-touchscreen>` component,
the cst816 will report touches on a button outside the screen area.
A binary sensor can be configured to react to touching this button.
.. code-block:: yaml
# Example configuration entry
binary_sensor:
- platform: cst816
name: "Home"
Configuration variables:
************************
- **cst816_id** (*Optional*, :ref:`config-id`): Manually specify the ID of the touchscreen.
- All other options from :ref:`Binary Sensor <config-binary_sensor>`.
