Abstract: A touch display device includes a first substrate and a second substrate disposed opposite to each other, wherein a touch functional layer and a conductive layer are insulated from each other and are disposed on the second substrate. The conductive layer is disposed between the touch function layer and the first substrate; and the conductive layer serves as a heating layer in a first state and serves as a shield layer in a second state.

Abstract: A system for calibrating operation of integrated differential signal receiver circuitry mounted on a substrate and coupled via surface conductors to edge mounted interface electrodes in which compensation is provided for variances among the resistances of the surface conductors.

Abstract: A switch arrangement comprises a photoconductor to be illuminated. The switch arrangement also comprises a conductor which is intended to further transmit light escaping from the photoconductor and directed to the conductor by a local contact, wherein the conductor and the photoconductor are further under the control of an external force, arranged to move in relation to each other and to cause the development, loss or change of the contact in such a way that a detectable change is caused in the light guided through it.

Abstract: Aspects of a switch matrix circuit are provided. In accordance with a circuit aspect, a plurality of switches are organized in a row and column configuration. Coupled to the plurality of switches is a current sensing circuit. The current sensing circuit includes a transistor and at least one resistor per column of the plurality of switches. Current amplified by the transistor and converted by the at least one resistor in a column is sensed as a logic level indicative of a switch status within the column for a selected row. The current sensing arrangement may also be used in an embodiment utilizing bi-directional signal control to minimize the number of I/O lines required to scan the switch matrix. The bi-directional signal scanning may also be implemented in another embodiment that senses voltage levels to determine switch closures.

Abstract: In a crosspoint switch, both input buses and output buses are driven at low swing. Self-timed, differential, push-pull, low swing driver circuits drive the input buses and are provided in the crosspoints to drive the output buses. Clocked, regenerative sense amplifiers are provided in crosspoints and at outputs of the data buses.
