  • Publication number: 20130342496
    Abstract: A sensing circuit includes a capacitor array, a comparator, and a processing unit. The comparator compares a detection voltage of each sensing unit with a common voltage of the touch panel to generate a corresponding comparison result. The processing unit generates a corresponding adjustment signal according to the corresponding comparison result. The capacitor array executes a corresponding operation on a present exponent n to generate a corresponding compensation capacitor according to the corresponding adjustment signal, and the capacitor array generates a present compensation capacitor according to a previous compensation capacitor generated by the capacitor array and the corresponding compensation capacitor. Thus, the present invention not only can quickly make a compensation capacitor generated by the capacitor array converge toward capacitor variation generated by the sensing unit, but can also reduce a delay problem of compensating capacitor caused by environmental noise interference.

  • Publication number: 20090231701
    Abstract: Optical isolators are used in optical communication systems, especially optical systems which employ semiconductor lasers. As transmission rates used in optical communications systems have increased, for example to several Gbits per second, the performance required of lasers used in such systems has also increased. It is well known that light reflected back from some parts of an optical communications system will adversely affect the operation of such a high performance laser leading to fluctuations in the spectrum, line width, or intrinsic noise of the laser. In this invention, a free space isolator is illustrated utilized to protect such high performance semiconductor lasers from these reflections by stabilizing an optical element within a base.
