In step 703, can by microcontroller 150 to judge that acquired person is as described capacitance variation amount or described electromagnetic signal.In step 704, if microcontroller 150 judges that acquired person is for described capacitance variation amount, those second cablings 140 are then set to form closed loop, then in step 705, microcontroller 150 can be utilized by those second cablings 140 to obtain described electromagnetic signal.
Please refer to step 706, can by microcontroller 150 to judge whether to obtain described electromagnetic signal, then, in step 710, if microcontroller 150 has been judged to obtain described electromagnetic signal, those first cablings 120 are then set with those second cablings 140 to form closed loop, and carry out electromagnetic signal detecting and location by microcontroller 150 in step 711.
When gripping pen with hand and writing, hand is often resisted against on an object by common people, and the anchorage force given based on this object carrys out writing words.In like manner known, because electromagnetic touch-control grips time writer with staff to write, common people first can be about to hand equally and be resisted against contact panel 100, thus, it is capacitor-type touch that contact panel 100 can be caused to judge this touch event by accident, is so electromagnetic type touching actually.
Accordingly, the embodiment of the present invention provides a kind of sensing method of touch control 700, by performing step 703 to step 706 to provide a buffering, and opens the problem of contact panel 100 erroneous judgement on solving.Specifically, when step 703 judges that a touch event is capacitor-type touch, that is hand is when touching contact panel 100 in advance, still do not perform the detecting of capacitance variation amount and location (step 708), but whether perform that step 704 detects to 706 be again electromagnetic type touching, that is the follow-up event generation touching contact panel 100 with or without time writer, when judging that this touch event is touched for electromagnetic type in fact, then perform step 710 and carry out electromagnetic signal detecting to 711 and locate.
In brief, when step 703 judges that touch event is capacitor-type touch, directly do not perform the detecting of capacitance variation amount and location (step 708), and be through a buffering, that is whether perform that step 704 detects to 706 be electromagnetic type touching, thus solve the problem that contact panel 100 judges by accident.
In one embodiment, please refer to step 703, judge that acquired person more comprises for the step of described capacitance variation amount or described electromagnetic signal: if acquired person is described electromagnetic signal, those first cablings and those the second cablings are then set to form closed loop (step 710), and carry out electromagnetic signal detecting and location (step 711).
In step 720, if microcontroller 150 judges that acquired person is for described electromagnetic signal, those first cablings 120 are then set with those second cablings 140 to form closed loop, now, electromagnetic signal detecting and location can be carried out by microcontroller 150 in step 711.
Thus, the sensing method of touch control 700 of the embodiment of the present invention can open loop or closed loop by microcontroller 150 to control same group of cabling formation, electric capacity and electromagnetic mode is correspondingly operated in order to do making the contact panel 100 of the embodiment of the present invention, that is the mode structurally adopting cabling to share, improve when carrying out electromagnetism and electric capacity processing procedure respectively at glass substrate both sides, the higher problem with processing procedure complexity of processing procedure cost, and the problem improving that the picture brightness that adopts described double-decker to cause reduces.
In another embodiment, please refer to step 706, judge whether that the step detecting described electromagnetic signal more comprises: if do not detect described electromagnetic signal, those first cablings 120 are then set and open loop (step 707) with those second cablings 140 to be formed, and carry out the detecting of described capacitance variation amount and location (step 708).
In step 707, if microcontroller 150 does not detect described electromagnetic signal, then can arrange those first cablings 120 by microcontroller 150 and open loop with those second cablings 140 to be formed, now, step 708 can carry out the detecting of capacitance variation amount and location by microcontroller 150.
In one embodiment, sensing method of touch control 700 more comprises following steps: judge whether touch-control terminates (step 709,712).Execution step 708 with carry out described capacitance variation amount detecting with location after, in step 709, can judge whether touch-control terminates by microcontroller 150, if touch-control does not terminate, then perform step 708, if touch-control terminates, then perform step 713 so that the first cabling 120 and the second cabling 140 are arranged to original state, that is those first cablings 120 are set open loop to be formed, and those second cablings 140 are set to form closed loop.
Moreover, execution step 711 with carry out described electromagnetic signal detecting with location after, in step 712, can judge whether touch-control terminates by microcontroller 150, if touch-control does not terminate, then perform step 711, if touch-control terminates, then perform step 713 so that the first cabling 120 and the second cabling 140 are arranged to original state, that is those first cablings 120 are set open loop with formation, and those second cablings 140 are set to form closed loop.
Sensing method of touch control 700 as above all can be performed by software, hardware and/or a piece of wood serving as a brake to halt a carriage body.For example, if with execution speed and accuracy for overriding concern, then hardware and/or a piece of wood serving as a brake to halt a carriage body substantially can be selected to be main; If take design flexibility as overriding concern, then software substantially can be selected to be main; Or, software, hardware and a piece of wood serving as a brake to halt a carriage body work compound can be adopted simultaneously.Should be appreciated that, above these lifted examples are not so-called, and which is better and which is worse point, also and be not used to limit the present invention, have the knack of this those skilled in the art when depending on needed at that time Flexible Design it.
Moreover have in art and usually know that the knowledgeable is when understanding, the function that each step in sensing method of touch control 700 performs according to it is named, and is only to allow the technology of this case more become apparent, and is not used to limit these steps.Each step be integrated into same step or be split into multiple step, or arbitrary step is changed in another step performing, all still being belonged to the embodiment of this disclosure.
From the invention described above embodiment, application the present invention has following advantages.The embodiment of the present invention is by providing a kind of contact panel 100 and sensing method of touch control 700, loop or closed loop is opened to control same group of cabling formation by microcontroller 150, electric capacity and electromagnetic mode is correspondingly operated in order to do making the contact panel 100 of the embodiment of the present invention, that is the mode structurally adopting cabling to share, improve when carrying out electromagnetism and electric capacity processing procedure respectively at glass substrate both sides, the higher problem with processing procedure complexity of processing procedure cost, and the problem improving that the picture brightness that adopts described double-decker to cause reduces.
In addition, the first cabling 120 in the contact panel 100 of the embodiment of the present invention or the second cabling 140 adopt bilateral cabling to realize, in order to reduce substrate 110 border width, furthermore, in the first cabling 120 and the second cabling 140, distance between first line 210 and the second circuit 220 is between about 1 millimeter to about 10 millimeters, and the configuration mode as above between about 1 millimeter to about 10 millimeters of the distance between tertiary circuit and the 4th circuit, when its object is to avoid finger touching contact panel, the touch-control erroneous judgement caused.
