Abstract: The present invention provides a capacitive sensing circuit, comprising at least one capacitor to be measured, an integral capacitor, a first current mirror having a first current path and a second current path. A first current is generated in the first current path so as to charge the capacitor to be measured, while a second current mirrored from the first current is generated in the second current path so as to charge the integral capacitor. As such, the mirrored current, resulted from mirroring the charging current on the capacitor to be measured, is used to charge the integral capacitor. Charge energy charged on the capacitor to be measured may be copied onto the integral capacitor so as to reflect a voltage signal. Subsequently, capacitance variation generated when the capacitor to be measured is touched may be sensed by detecting the voltage signal.

Abstract: An electronic circuit for calculating image shift in successive images generated by using image invariant optical speckle patterns, with results output as serial I2C or A/B phase signals. The device comprises a laser LED light source, an optical structure, an image detector, an integrated circuit, and a micro-controller. The laser LED light source generates a collimated laser directed at a contact surface through the optical structure. The image detector may capture the speckle patterns from a moving surface. The integrated circuit can perform image shift calculations to determine the shifted distance moved on the surface so as to output the serial I2C or A/B phase signals, which the micro-controller can utilize for movement and location determining applications. Because it is capable of measuring extremely fine changes on scales of one micrometer or less, this invention may be used in surface recognition and precision control applications.
