Abstract: Input devices described herein include sensing regions that permit the device to identify a location of input objects along a side of the device. To perform gesture detection, an input device selects baseline signals which are subtracted from capacitive sensing signals captured using the sensor electrodes in the sensing region. Doing so results in delta signals that represent the difference between the capacitive sensing signals and the baseline signals. In one embodiment, the baseline signals are selected from capacitive sensing signals received during previous capacitive frames. In one example, the input device uses the capacitive sensing signals received during the Nth previous capacitive frame as the baseline signals. Alternatively, the input device may determine which frame has capacitive sensing signals that vary the most from the current sensing signals and use that frame as the baseline.

Abstract: Systems and methods of the present disclosure relates generally to techniques for controlling a gate signal applied to a transistor in an electronic component. One embodiment includes decreasing a skew rate at the rising and/or falling edges of the gate signal to reduce the effects of data signal errors. Decreasing the gate signal falling edge skew rate may decrease clock feedthrough effects of the transistor, and decreasing the gate signal rising edge skew rate may decrease crosstalk effects between more than one data paths in the electronic component. The falling edge skew rate may be manipulated by initially increasing the activating voltage of the gate signal to a higher voltage, such that the gate signal may take longer to fall. The rising edge skew rate may be manipulated by increasing a voltage later during the activating period, such that the gate signal may take longer to rise.
