During a plurality of scan cycles, a plurality of capacitive sense signals and one or more force signals are obtained from capacitive sense electrodes of the capacitive sense array and the one or more force electrodes, respectively, and applied to determine a temporal sequence of touches on the touch sensing surface.

Abstract: A stylus capable of bidirectionally communicating with a sensor controller includes a receiver that receives an uplink signal sent by the sensor controller, a controller that determines whether a signal having a predetermined waveform is to be continuously sent over a second time period or to be continuously sent over a first time period longer than the second time period, on the basis of the uplink signal, and a transmitter that continuously sends the signal having the predetermined waveform over the first time period or the second time period on the basis of the result of determination by the controller. As a result, the sensor controller can detect a burst signal from the stylus over a wide range in a sensor touch surface, to thereby reduce the possibility that the sensor controller may fail to detect the burst signal.

Abstract: This application is directed to detecting touch events on a touch sensing surface coupled to a capacitive sense array and one or more force electrodes. The capacitive sense array includes a plurality of sense electrodes configured to provide a plurality of capacitive sense signals. The force electrodes are configured to provide one or more force signals. A subset of sense electrodes are determined to be associated with a candidate touch based on the capacitive sense signals and their associated baseline values. When force associated with the force signals is below a predetermined force threshold, the candidate touch is determined as an invalid touch (e.g., coverage by a water drop on an area of the touch sensing surface corresponding to the subset of sense electrodes). Baseline values are adjusted for the subset of sense electrodes for determining subsequent touch events associated with the subset of sense electrodes.

Abstract: In a first state before a first event is detected, a determination unit of a press detection apparatus prevents a definitive value from increasing steeply when the pressing force has increased steeply, and decreases the definitive value steeply when the pressing force has decreased steeply. In a second state after the first event is detected and before a second event is detected, the determination unit prevents the definitive value from increasing steeply when the pressing force has increased steeply, and prevents the definitive value from decreasing steeply when the pressing force has decreased steeply. This reduces the possibility that the definitive value increases steeply in the first state and increases and decreases steeply in the second state even under vibration.
