  • Patent number: 8963881
    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.
