Publication number: 20230359305Abstract: Differential driving and/or sensing can reduce noise in a touch screen. In some examples, the touch electrodes and/or routing traces can be implemented using metal mesh in first and second metal layers. To mitigate electrical interference at the touch screen from a display, a display-noise shield or sensor can be provided between the display and the touch screen. In some examples, a shield can minimize a noise contribution from the display to signals generated at the touch screen. In other examples, a sensor can enable a differential read out of signals at the touch screen that subtracts a noise component measured by the sensor. Forming the shield or sensor, and the touch screen over the display using an on-cell process can improve touch screen performance and yield. The shield can be connected to a conductive ring and flex circuit via tapping points in a stackup separate from a display stackup.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 5, 2023Publication date: November 9, 2023Inventors: Sagar R.
