Abstract: Certain aspects relate to systems and techniques for scan control for scanning a touch panel. The scan control system can alternate adaptively between scanning the touch panel in a passive scan mode requiring minimal power and in a focused active scan mode that sequentially scans only a portion of the touch panel. The scan control system can monitor the absolute capacitance of some or all of the sensors of the touch panel in passive scan mode and can monitor the mutual capacitance of a portion of the touch panel in focused active scan mode. If the absolute capacitance of any sensor is greater than the baseline capacitance, then the scan control can use this absolute capacitance touch data to determine one or more sub-regions of the touch panel for scanning in focused active scan mode. The mutual capacitance touch data can be used for determining features of the touch event.

Abstract: A method, an apparatus, and a computer program product for processing touchscreen information are provided. The method may include receiving touchscreen data that includes node values representative of signals generated by a touchscreen panel, generating a first data frame including difference values, and transmitting the first data frame over a control data bus. Each of the difference values may be calculated as a difference between one of the node values and a different node-related value wherein the first data frame has a predefined size. The first data frame may be configured to permit a receiver of the first data frame to reconstruct the touchscreen data without information loss.

Abstract: Lower report rates are desirable in touch devices to minimize power consumption. However, lower report rates lead to inaccurate and untimely depiction of a user's touch inputs on a touch display device. Disclosed are methods and apparatus for using a lower report rate; while maintaining substantially the same or better user experience achieved by using a higher report rate.

Abstract: A system and method provide a unified cache in a Small Computer System Interface (SCSI) device which can be dynamically allocated to one or more Logical Units (LUs). A cache balancer module of the SCSI device can allocate the entire unified cache to a single LU, or divide the unified cache among multiple LUs. The cache entries for each LU can be further classified based on Quality of Service (QoS) traffic classes within each LU thereby improving the QoS performance. The system provides a cache allocation table that maintains a unified cache allocation status for each LU.
