  • Publication number: 20110298759
    Abstract: During test of a display, a synchronous reference signal is determined, and an appearing moment of a minimal-noise signal is determined based on a start moment of the synchronous reference signal. Therefore, during other tests or usage by a user on the display, noise from data lines due to data coupling may be avoided, and detection and determination of touch commands on a touch panel of the display may be isolated from being disturbed by the noise.
