  • Patent number: 8420958
    Abstract: A position apparatus of a touch device and a position method thereof are provided, wherein the touch device includes a plurality of scan lines. In the position method, a plurality of capacitances in the scan lines are sensed. Next, a plurality of capacitances respectively sensed in an ith scan line of the scan lines and a subset of the scan lines neighboring with the ith scan line are selected. When the capacitance sensed in the ith scan line is larger than each of the capacitances sensed in the subset of the scan lines, the capacitance sensed in the ith scan line is determined as a peak capacitance. Finally, a touch position is calculated according to the peak capacitance and the capacitances sensed in the subset of the scan lines.

  • Publication number: 20110127092
    Abstract: A position method for a touch device is provided. In the position method, first, a controller is provided to set a boundary region on a touch panel of the touch device. When a touch medium touches the touch panel, the controller detects whether a peak capacitance detection differential value of a plurality of capacitance detection differential values is occurred in the boundary region. Besides, the controller performs an interpolation calculation to obtain a coordinate of a touch point for the touch medium according to the peak capacitance detection differential value and a first adjacent capacitance detection differential value which is adjacent to the peak capacitance detection differential value.
