Description

Sensing circuit of capacitive touch panel
Technical Field
The present invention relates to a sensing circuit of a touch panel (touch panel), and more particularly, to a sensing circuit of a capacitive touch panel (capacitive touch panel).
Background
Referring to fig. 1, a schematic diagram of a conventional capacitive touch panel system is shown. The capacitive touch panel system includes: driving units (driving units) u 1-u 6, sensing circuits (sensing circuits) s 1-s 6, and a touch panel. The touch panel includes driving electrodes (driving electrodes) d 1-d 6 and receiving electrodes (receiving electrodes) r 1-r 6 which are not in contact with each other, each of the driving electrodes d 1-d 6 is connected to the output end of a corresponding driving unit u 1-u 6, and each of the receiving electrodes r 1-r 6 is connected to the input end of a corresponding sensing circuit s 1-s 6. Furthermore, mutual capacitances (mutual capacitances) Cs11 to Cs66 are generated by the driving electrodes d1 to d6 and the receiving electrodes r1 to r6 which are not in contact with each other. Of course, the capacitive touch panel in fig. 1 only takes six driving electrodes d 1-d 6 and six receiving electrodes r 1-r 6 as examples, and the structure of the capacitive touch panel composed of more driving electrodes and receiving electrodes is similar, and therefore, the description thereof is omitted.
The capacitive touch panel of fig. 1 can be used as a multi-touch (multi-finger) touch panel. The operation principle is to calculate the position touched by the user by using the change of the mutual capacitance value (capacitance value). Generally, when a user generates a contact point (touch point) on the capacitive touch panel, a mutual capacitance value (capacitance value) at the position of the contact point changes, and at this time, a driving signal is provided to the mutual capacitance, and a charge amount charged by the mutual capacitance changes correspondingly. The sensing circuit detects the change of the charge quantity by utilizing the characteristic, judges the size change of the mutual inductance capacitance through the change of the voltage signal, and judges whether the grounding conductor is close to or in contact with the position of the touch panel or not through the size change of the mutual inductance capacitance. Of course, since the relationship between the charge amount (Q), the voltage (V) and the capacitance (C) is Q ═ C × V, the sensing circuit may also provide a change in voltage, so that the subsequent circuits determine the position of the user contact point according to the change in voltage.
As shown in FIG. 1, the six driving signals P1-P6 sequentially provide a pulse (pulse) to be transmitted to the driving electrodes d 1-d 6 via the driving units u 1-u 6. Since mutual capacitances Cs11 to Cs66 exist between the driving electrodes d1 to d6 and the receiving electrodes r1 to r6, the amount of induced charge (coupling charge) in the mutual capacitances Cs11 to Cs66 is transferred to the corresponding sensing circuits s1 to s6 via the receiving electrodes r1 to r 6. Therefore, the sensing circuits s 1-s 6 can generate the corresponding output voltages Vo 1-Vo 6.
Taking the first driving signal P1 as an example, the pulse generated in one driving period T charges the mutual inductances Cs11 to Cs16 on the first driving electrode d1, and the induced charges on the mutual inductances Cs11 to Cs16 are transferred to the sensing circuits s1 to s6 through the receiving electrodes r1 to r6, so that the sensing circuits s1 to s6 can generate the corresponding output voltages Vo1 to Vo 6.
Therefore, assuming that the contact point is located near the mutual inductance Cs11, the output voltage Vo1 of the first sensing circuit s1 is different from the output voltages Vo2 to Vo6 of the other sensing circuits s2 to s 6. Of course, if two contact points are located near the mutual inductance Cs11 and the mutual inductance Cs16, the output voltages Vo1 and Vo6 of the first sensing circuit s1 and the sixth sensing circuit s6 are different from the output voltages Vo2 to Vo5 of the other sensing circuits s2 to s 5.
By using the same principle, in the following driving period, the driving signals P2-P6 will sequentially provide pulses to the driving electrodes d 2-d 6, so that the sensing circuits s 1-s 6 generate the corresponding output voltages Vo 1-Vo 6.
As can be seen from the above, six driving cycles can be regarded as one scanning cycle (τ). That is, after a scanning period τ, all areas on the capacitive touch panel are scanned (scan) once, and the position of the contact point generated on the touch panel by the user can be accurately obtained.
Referring to fig. 2, a conventional sensing circuit is shown. The sensing circuit s is implemented by an integrator (integrator), comprising: an operational amplifier (operational amplifier)200, and a feedback capacitor (Cf). The operational amplifier 200 has a positive input terminal (+) receiving a reference voltage Vref, and a feedback capacitor Cf connected between a negative input terminal (-) and an output terminal Vo. Furthermore, the negative input (-) of the operational amplifier 200 is also connected to the receiving electrode r, and the mutual capacitance Cs is connected between the receiving electrode r and the driving electrode d.
Under normal operation of the operational amplifier 200, the voltages at the positive input terminal (+) and the negative input terminal (-) are the same and equal to the reference voltage Vref. Therefore, when the pulse amplitude of the driving electrode d is Vy, a voltage variation (Δ Vo) can be further obtained at the output Vo.
And Δ Vo ═ Vy × Cs/Cf- - - - (I). Therefore, taking the first driving signal P1 of fig. 1 as an example, when the user does not generate a touch point, the mutual capacitances Cs 11-Cs 16 will not change, and the voltage changes at the output terminals Vo 1-Vo 6 of the sensing circuits s 1-s 6 will be the same. On the contrary, if the user generates a contact point near the mutual inductor Cs11, the value (capacitance) of the mutual inductor Cs11 changes, so that the voltage variation of the output Vo1 of the first sensing circuit s1 is different from the voltage variations of the output Vo2 to Vo6 of the other sensing circuits s2 to s 6. The subsequent circuits can obtain the positions of the contact points according to the voltage variations at the output terminals Vo1 to Vo6 of the sensing circuits s1 to s 6.
However, when the mutual capacitance Cs at the contact point changes very little, the difference between the induced charge amount of the contact point and the induced charge amount of other mutual capacitances is too small, so that the difference between the voltage change amount generated by the sensing circuit corresponding to the contact point and the voltage change amount of other sensing circuits is too small, and the subsequent circuits cannot calculate the position of the contact point accordingly.
Referring to fig. 3, a schematic diagram of another conventional capacitive touch panel system is shown. As can be seen in fig. 3, the driving signals P1-P6 include two sub-periods (t1, t2) in one driving period, so that the mutual capacitance in the capacitive touch panel 300 can generate induced charges multiple times. Therefore, the sensing circuits s 1-s 6 can be designed to accumulate the induced charges on the mutual capacitance for multiple times, so that the voltage variation generated by the output voltages Vo 1-Vo 6 of the sensing circuits s 1-s 6 can be more easily distinguished.
As can be seen from fig. 3, there are six driving periods T in one scanning period τ, and there are two sub-periods T1, T2 in one driving period. That is, each of the driving signals P1-P6 generates a pulse in each of the two sub-periods T1 and T2 of the driving period T, so that the mutual capacitance generates the induced charges multiple times. The sensing circuits s 1-s 6 are designed to accumulate the induced charges generated by the mutual capacitance for many times and generate a large voltage variation. Therefore, after a scanning period τ, all areas on the capacitive touch panel are scanned (scan) once, and the position of the contact point generated on the touch panel by the user can be accurately obtained.
Fig. 3 only shows that two sub-periods T1 and T2 in one driving period T provide two pulses, but it is needless to say that more sub-periods and more pulses may be included in one driving period T, so that the sensing circuits s1 to s6 generate larger voltage variations. U.S. Pat. No. 6,514 discloses a Capacitive sensor and array (Capacitive sensor and array) that uses multiple pulses to accumulate charge generated by mutual capacitance.

Referring to fig. 4A and 4B, a sensing circuit and a control signal thereof according to a first embodiment of the invention are shown. The sensing circuit s includes: an operational amplifier 400, a feedback capacitor Cf, four switch circuits sw 1-sw 4. Furthermore, the driving signal P can generate induced charges in the mutual capacitance Cs through the driving electrode d, and is transmitted to the input terminal of the sensing circuit s through the receiving electrode r.
The input end of the sensing circuit s is connected to first ends of a first switch sw1 (controlled by a first control signal ctr1) and a second switch sw2 (controlled by a second control signal ctr2), and a second end of the first switch sw1 is connected to a first end of a third switch sw3 (controlled by a third control signal ctr3) and a feedback capacitor Cf; the negative input (-) of the operational amplifier 400 is connected to the second terminal of the feedback capacitor Cf and the first terminal of the fourth switch sw4 (controlled by the fourth control signal ctr4), the positive input (+) of the operational amplifier 400 is connected to a ground terminal (GND), the output of the operational amplifier 400 is the output Vo of the sensing circuit s, and is connected to the second terminals of the second switch sw2, the third switch sw3 and the fourth switch sw 4.
Furthermore, as shown in fig. 4B, the driving signal P includes a reset period (resetcycle) and a driving period (T) in one scan cycle. A driving period T of the driving signal P includes three sub-periods T1, T2, and T3, which generate three pulses in total, and the rest of the time is the reset period. The four control signals ctr1 to ctr4 may turn off (close) the switches sw1 to sw4 at a high level, and turn on (open) the switches sw1 to sw4 at a low level. In fig. 4B, only three pulses are taken as an example, and actually, the number of sub-periods and pulses in the driving period T are not limited.
The detailed operation of the sensing circuit s of the first embodiment is described in detail below. Referring to fig. 5A, a schematic diagram of a sensing circuit during a reset period is shown. In the reset period, the first switch sw1 to the fourth switch sw4 are turned off. At this time, the drive signal P has not yet generated a pulse, and both ends of the feedback capacitance Cf and the mutual capacitance Cs are short-circuited (short circuit), so that the charge amount is 0. The operational amplifier 400 is connected as a unity gain amplifier (unity gain amplifier), so that the voltage of the output Vo is 0
Referring to FIG. 5B, a schematic diagram of the sensing circuit is shown as the high time T1a of the first sub-period T1 in the driving period T. As can be seen from fig. 4B, during the high time t1a of the first sub-period t1, the first switch sw1 and the fourth switch sw4 are turned off, and the second switch sw2 and the third switch sw3 are turned on.
At this time, the operational amplifier 400 is connected as a unity gain amplifier, so that the voltage of the output Vo is 0. The pulse amplitude of the driving signal P is Vy, so the voltage on the feedback capacitor Cf is
V 1 = ( Cs Cs + Cf ) Vy .
Referring to FIG. 5C, a schematic diagram of the sensing circuit is shown as the low time T1b of the first sub-period T1 in the driving period T. As can be seen from fig. 4B, during the low-level time t1B of the first sub-period t1, the second switch sw2 and the third switch sw3 are in the off state, and the first switch sw1 and the fourth switch sw4 are in the open state.
At this time, the voltage Vo at the output terminal of the operational amplifier 400 is
Figure G2010100020986D00072
Since the voltage of the driving signal P is 0, the voltage on the mutual capacitance Cs is also V1. Therefore, the charge stored on the mutual capacitance Cs is Cs × V1, and the charge stored on the feedback capacitance Cf is Cf × V1.
Referring to FIG. 5D, a schematic diagram of the sensing circuit is shown as the high time T2a of the second sub-period T2 in the driving period T. As can be seen from fig. 4B, during the high time t2a of the second sub-period t2, the first switch sw1 and the fourth switch sw4 are turned off, and the second switch sw2 and the third switch sw3 are turned on.
At this time, the operational amplifier 400 is connected as a unity gain amplifier, and the voltage of the output Vo is 0. While the pulse amplitude of the drive signal P is Vy and the voltage over the feedback capacitance Cf is assumed to be V2. Therefore, Cs × V1+ Cf × V1 ═ V2-Vy Cs + V2 × Cf.
Figure G2010100020986D00073
Referring to FIG. 5E, a schematic diagram of the sensing circuit is shown as the low time T2b of the second sub-period T2 in the driving period T. As can be seen from fig. 4B, during the low time t2B of the second sub-period t2, the second switch sw2 and the third switch sw3 are turned off, and the first switch sw1 and the fourth switch sw4 are turned on.
Vo at the output of the operational amplifier 400 is
Figure G2010100020986D00081
And the voltage on the mutual capacitance Cs is also made V2. At this time, the charge stored on the mutual capacitance Cs is Cs × V2; and the charge stored on the feedback capacitance Cf is Cf × V2.
Referring to FIG. 5F, a schematic diagram of the sensing circuit is shown as the high time T3a of the third sub-period T3 in the driving period T. As can be seen from fig. 4B, in the third sub-period t3 high-level time t3a, the first switch sw1 and the fourth switch sw4 are in the off state, and the second switch sw2 and the third switch sw3 are in the open state.
At this time, the operational amplifier 400 is connected as a unity gain amplifier, and the voltage of the output Vo is 0. While the pulse amplitude of the drive signal P is Vy and the voltage over the feedback capacitance Cf is assumed to be V3. Therefore, Cs × V2+ Cf × V2 ═ V3-Vy Cs + V3 × Cf.
Figure G2010100020986D00082
Referring to FIG. 5G, a schematic diagram of the sensing circuit at the low time T3b of the third sub-period T3 in the driving period T is shown. As can be seen from fig. 4B, in the third sub-period t3, when the level is low for time t3B, the second switch sw2 and the third switch sw3 are turned off, and the first switch sw1 and the fourth switch sw4 are turned on.
Vo at the output of the operational amplifier 400 is
Figure G2010100020986D00083
And the voltage on the mutual capacitance Cs is also made V3. That is, during the low time of the third sub-period t3, the output voltage is obtained at the output Vo of the sensing circuit s.
According to the first embodiment of the present invention, when the number of sub-periods in the driving period T is N pulses, at the high level of the pulses, charges are accumulated in the feedback capacitor Cf by a fixed amount. At the low level of the nth pulse, the output voltage Vo available at the output Vo of the sensing circuit s is Vo ═ N Δ
Figure G2010100020986D00084
Therefore, the subsequent circuit can be used for judging reference according to the output voltage.
Referring to fig. 6A and 6B, a second embodiment of the sensing circuit and the control signal thereof according to the invention is shown. The sensing circuit s includes: an operational amplifier 600, a feedback capacitor Cf, four switch circuits sw 1-sw 4. Furthermore, the driving signal P is generated by switching the fifth switch sw5 (controlled by the fifth control signal ctr5) and the sixth switch sw6 (controlled by the sixth control signal ctr 6).
The input end of the sensing circuit s is connected to the first ends of the first switch sw1 (controlled by the first control signal ctr1) and the second switch sw2 (controlled by the second control signal ctr2), and the second end of the first switch sw1 is connected to the third switch sw3 (controlled by the third control signal ctr3) and the first end of the feedback capacitor Cf; the negative input (-) of the operational amplifier 600 is connected to the second terminal of the feedback capacitor Cf and the first terminal of the fourth switch sw4 (controlled by the fourth control signal ctr4), the positive input (+) of the operational amplifier 600 is connected to a ground terminal (GND), the output of the operational amplifier 600 is the output Vo of the sensing circuit s, and is connected to the second terminals of the second switch sw2, the third switch sw3 and the fourth switch sw 4.
The six control signals ctr1 to ctr6 may turn off (close) the switches sw1 to sw6 at a high level, and turn on (open) the switches sw1 to sw6 at a low level. As shown in fig. 6B, the driving signal P includes a reset period and a driving period T in one scan period. Furthermore, the driving signal P generates three sub-periods T1, T2, T3 in a driving period T, each of which includes four phases (phases). Taking the first sub-period t1 as an example, in the first phase t1a, the fifth switch sw5 and the sixth switch sw6 are both in an open state, and the driving signal is in a floating state (floating); in the second phase t1b, the fifth switch sw5 is in an open state and the sixth switch sw6 is in a closed state, and the driving signal P is at a low level (0V); in the third phase t1c, the fifth switch sw5 is turned off, the sixth switch sw6 is turned on, and the driving signal P is at a high level Vy; and, in the fourth phase t1d, the fifth switch sw5 is in an open state and the sixth switch sw6 is in a closed state, and the driving signal P is at a low level (0V). And the rest of the time except the driving period T is the reset period. In fig. 6B, only three sub-periods are taken as an example, and the number of sub-periods in the driving period T is not limited in practice.
The detailed operation of the sensing circuit s of the second embodiment is described in detail below. Referring to fig. 7A, a schematic diagram of a sensing circuit during a reset period is shown. In the reset period, the first switch sw1 to the fourth switch sw4 are turned off. Further, since the fifth switch sw5 is in an open state, the sixth switch sw6 is in a closed state, the drive signal P is at a low level (0V), and both ends of the feedback capacitance Cf and the mutual capacitance Cs are short-circuited (short circuit), the charge amount is 0. The operational amplifier 600 is connected as a unity gain amplifier, so that the voltage of the output Vo is 0.
Referring to FIG. 7B, a schematic diagram of the sensing circuit for the first phase T1a of the first sub-period T1 in the driving period T is shown.

Referring to FIG. 7D, a schematic diagram of the sensing circuit in the third phase T1c of the first sub-period T1 of the driving period T is shown. As shown in fig. 6B, in the third phase t1c of the first sub-period t1, the first switch sw1 and the fourth switch sw4 are turned off, the second switch sw2 and the third switch sw3 are turned on, and the driving signal P is at the high level Vy. At this time, the feedback capacitance Cf is connected in series with the mutual capacitance Cs and to a high level Vy, so that the voltage on the feedback capacitance Cf. The operational amplifier 600 is connected as a unity gain amplifier, so that the voltage of the output Vo is 0.
Referring to FIG. 7E, a schematic diagram of a sensing circuit for the fourth phase T1d of the first sub-period T1 in the driving period T is shown. As shown in fig. 6B, in the fourth phase t1d of the first sub-period t1, the first switch sw1 and the fourth switch sw4 are in the open state, the second switch sw2 and the third switch sw3 are in the closed state, and the driving signal P is at the low level (0V). At this time, the voltage Vo at the output terminal of the operational amplifier 600 is
