  • Publication number: 20130278551
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a capacitive touch sensor, and relates to a touch sensor which precisely senses whether there is any touch, without using a reference voltage or reference current in the touch sensor but by converting data between neighboring channels into two types of data having different polarities and by comparing the same. The invention makes it possible to miniaturize a structure of the touch sensor and to ensure compatibility allowing application to a variety of touch panels by minimizing the influence of noise from the outside environment.
