  • Publication number: 20130229382
    Abstract: A low power switching mode driving and sensing method for capacitive multi-touch systems is used in a capacitive multi-touch system with a capacitive touch panel. When the capacitive touch system operates in an idle mode, the method uses a self-capacitance driving and sensing technology to detect touch points. When the touch points are detected on the capacitive touch panel, the capacitive touch system is switched to an active mode and uses a mutual-capacitance driving and sensing technology to detect touch points for accurately acquiring the positions related to the touch points detected. During a predetermined time interval in which there is no touch point detected, the method automatically performs a calibration to update a mutual-capacitance base image raw data and a self-capacitance base image raw data, so as to overcome the drifting of sensors of the capacitive touch system.

  • Patent number: 8497844
    Abstract: A capacitive touch panel has a plurality of first conductor lines and a plurality of second conductor lines. The first conductor lines are disposed in a first direction for sensing a contact with an object. The second conductor lines are disposed in a second direction to be intersected insulatively with the first conductor lines so as to define an overlapping region at each intersection of a first conductor line and a second conductor line. As a driving signal is applied to one of the second conductor lines, the overlapping region defined at the intersection forms a capacitance. Each of the first conductor lines defines at least one opening in each of the overlapping regions.
