  • Patent number: 11914831
    Abstract: Techniques are described for discrete-time self-capacitor sensing in a touch panel. The self-capacitor manifests a detectably different capacitance based on presence or absence of a local touch event on the touch panel. In a first time phase, embodiments charge a self-capacitor and initialize a ramp bias generator. In a second time phase, embodiments discharge the self-capacitor with a ramp-controlled current source that is biased by the ramp bias generator to produce a discharge current that transitions from high at the beginning of the second time phase to low at the end of the second time phase. By the end of the second phase, the remaining charge in the self-capacitor depends on presence or absence of a local touch event. Some embodiments convert the remaining charge to an amplified sense output for readout.

  • Patent number: 11899857
    Abstract: A touchpad module includes a base plate, a touch member, a supporting structure and a pressure sensing unit. The touch member is movable toward the base plate. The supporting structure is arranged between the base plate and the touch member. The pressure sensing unit is installed on the touch member. The pressure sensing unit is arranged between the touch member and the base plate. While the touch member is pressed in response to an external pressing force, the touch member is moved downwardly toward the base plate to compress the supporting structure. Consequently, the supporting structure is subjected to deformation, and the touch member has a displacement amount. According to the displacement amount, a magnitude of the pressing force is sensed by the pressure sensing unit, and a pressure sensing signal is outputted from the pressure sensing unit.
