A touch input device refers to an input device with a contact surface, and the contact surface is distributed with a number of proximity sensors (proximity sensors), which generate an induction signal when an object touches the surface, and send it to a subsequent signal processing unit to determine the position of the object. analyze. Today's common touch input devices can be roughly divided into four categories: resistive, capacitive, optical, and acoustic. Among them, resistive touch panels and capacitive touch panels are the most popular in the market. the

The resistive touch panel mainly has two layers of plate electrodes separated up and down. One of the two plate electrode layers is very thin and flexible, and can be squeezed by a pen-shaped object (stylus) from the outside. , making the two layers of plate electrodes separated up and down to form electrical contact near the touch position of the pen-shaped object. A voltage difference is applied to both ends of one of the plate electrodes, so that the potential distributed on the plate electrode is related to the distance between the two ends of the electrode; the other plate electrode is used as a measuring electrode, and the measured voltage is used to obtain The touch position of the pen-shaped object is known. the

The capacitive touch panel also has upper and lower layers of electrodes, but it is not a flat plate electrode on the entire surface, but a trace type electrode distributed in rows and columns.
