4, first electrode or second electrode to sensing unit applies level signal so that self-capacitance is charged; Then control first electrode and second electrode grounding respectively so that self-capacitance is discharged; Carry out discharge examination to obtain the first discharge examination value and the second discharge examination value from first electrode and/or second electrode respectively afterwards.In this embodiment, because discharge is carried out from first electrode and second electrode to self-capacitance, therefore charging or detection just can be carried out from first electrode and/or second electrode.In this embodiment, twice charging also can all be used first electrode, and with second electrode ground connection or connect and be high resistant respectively.Likewise, twice charging also can all be used second electrode, and with first electrode ground connection or connect and be high resistant respectively.
5, first electrode or second electrode to sensing unit applies level signal so that self-capacitance is charged; Then control first electrode or second electrode grounding respectively with to the self-capacitance discharge, carry out discharge examination to obtain the first discharge examination value and the second discharge examination value from first electrode and second electrode respectively afterwards.In this embodiment, because detection is carried out from first electrode and second electrode to self-capacitance, so charge or discharge just can be carried out from first electrode and/or second electrode.In this embodiment, twice charging also can all be used first electrode, and with second electrode ground connection or connect and be high resistant respectively.Likewise, twice charging also can all be used second electrode, and with first electrode ground connection or connect and be high resistant respectively.
Perhaps; On the basis of the foregoing description; Can also when charging, carry out one-time detection to obtain the first charging detected value; When discharge, carry out detecting the second time to obtain the second discharge examination value, obtain the proportionate relationship between first resistance and second resistance according to the first charging detected value and the second discharge examination value again.
From foregoing description, can find out; Above-mentioned charging and detection mode for the utility model have a variety of variations; But the core of the utility model is exactly according to the relation between first resistance and second resistance, and for example perhaps other concern to confirm touch point position to proportionate relationship.Further, the relation between this first resistance and second resistance need detect through the charging and/or the discharge of self-capacitance.If sensing unit is not touched, then just can not produce self-capacitance, therefore there is not follow-up charge/discharge/detection etc. yet, no longer detect for this utility model embodiment, repeat no more at this.
Need to prove also that in addition above-mentioned detection mode is merely some optimal ways of the utility model, those skilled in the art also can expand or revise according to above-mentioned thought, and these all should be included within the protection domain of the utility model.
As shown in Figure 4, be the touch detecting method process flow diagram of the utility model embodiment, this process flow diagram combines schematic diagram shown in Figure 3 together to describe.This method may further comprise the steps:
Step S401 applies level signal to the two ends of sensing unit, and promptly first electrode and/or second electrode to sensing unit applies level signal.In this embodiment, can apply level signal same, also can apply different level signals to first electrode and second electrode.In other embodiments, also can only charge twice, perhaps charge from second electrode for the second time from the charging of first electrode for the first time, perhaps charge from first electrode for the second time from the charging of second electrode for the first time from first electrode or second electrode.
If this moment, this sensing unit was pointed or other objects touches, then this sensing unit will produce self-capacitance C1 (with reference to Fig. 3), just can charge to self-capacitance through the level signal that applies.In the embodiment of the utility model,, can improve the accuracy of detection of self-capacitance through charging to self-capacitance.
Need to prove,, then need corresponding two self-capacitance detection sub-module to detect from the two ends of sensing unit simultaneously if apply level signal simultaneously to the two ends of sensing unit.And if, then only need a self-capacitance detection sub-module to get final product respectively to the two ends time.In an embodiment of the utility model, first detected value and second detected value can for from first electrode and/or second electrode detection to capacitance charge variation delta Q1 and Δ Q2.Through Δ Q1 and Δ Q2, promptly detect and derive from capacitance change, just can calculate the ratio of R1 and R2, owing to the regular linear relation of figure, then can calculate the position of the horizontal ordinate at place, touch point, and the position at self-capacitance C1 place.
Step S402 detects sensing unit from the two ends of sensing unit, to obtain first detected value and second detected value.In this embodiment, detection can be carried out when charging, also can when discharge, carry out.In above-mentioned example, first detected value and second detected value are respectively Δ Q1 and Δ Q2.Below be that the change in electrical charge amount is that example is described with first detected value and second detected value, but other detected values that can reaction resistance R1 concern with R2, for example level signal, electric current etc. also all can adopt.In the embodiment of the utility model, both can detect simultaneously, also can detect respectively.
In an embodiment of the utility model,, then need two self-capacitance detection modules simultaneously first electrode and second electrode to be detected if detect simultaneously.
In another embodiment of the utility model; Also can adopt a self-capacitance detection module to detect; In step S401, after being full of through the first electrode pair self-capacitance C1, promptly this self-capacitance detection module detects through the first electrode pair self-capacitance C1.Then again through second electrode pair self-capacitance C2 charging, then this self-capacitance detection module detects through the second electrode pair self-capacitance C1 again.
Because the phase place that adopts during this sensing unit of self-capacitance detection module scanning is all consistent with level signal, the electric charge when therefore for same self-capacitance C1, charging just equals the inverse ratio of their resistance.Supposing, is respectively Δ Q1 and Δ Q2 from first electrode of sensing unit and the change in electrical charge amount of second electrode pair sensing unit detection acquisition.In the embodiment of the utility model, the self-capacitance detection module can be known self-capacitance detection module at present.In an embodiment of the utility model,, but, therefore can not increase the overall power of chip then owing to two a plurality of devices of self-capacitance detection module technology if adopt two self-capacitance detection modules.
Step S403 judges according to first detected value and second detected value whether this sensing unit is touched.Particularly, in an embodiment of the utility model, can whether determine whether to be touched through judging change in electrical charge amount Δ Q1 and Δ Q2 greater than threshold value.Certainly, in other embodiment of the utility model, also other judgment modes can be set, whether for example judge change in electrical charge amount Δ Q1 and Δ Q2 less than threshold value, if less than, judge that then sensing unit is touched.Likewise, this threshold value also need be according to the size and the type of touch-screen, and the size of sensing unit is confirmed.
Step S404 is touched if judge this sensing unit, then further calculates first resistance of first electrode to said self-capacitance described in the corresponding sensing unit and the proportionate relationship between said second electrode to second resistance of said self-capacitance this moment.In the embodiment of the utility model; Proportionate relationship between first resistance and said second resistance is according to the self-capacitance charge/discharge time, from first electrode and/or second electrode detects first detected value of acquisition and the proportionate relationship between second detected value calculates.The same, the coordinate on the sensing unit at C1 place is Δ Q2/ (Δ Q1+ Δ Q2).
Step S405 confirms the touch location on second direction according to the position of sensing unit.Particularly, can adopt centroid algorithm to calculate the touch location of touch point on second direction, below centroid algorithm carried out brief account.
In draw runner and touch pad application, often be necessary more than the essential spacing of concrete sensing unit, to determine the position of finger (or other capacitive object).The touch panel of finger on draw runner or touch pad is usually greater than any sensing unit.In order to adopt the position after touch is calculated at a center, to this array scan with checking given sensing station be effectively, be to be greater than preset touch threshold for the requirement of the adjacent sensing unit signal of some.After finding the strongest signal, this signal all is used for computing center with those closing signals greater than touch threshold:
N Cent = n i - 1 ( i - 1 ) + n i i + n i + 1 ( i + 1 ) n i - 1 + n i + n i + 1
Wherein, Ncent is the label of center sensing unit, and n is the number that detects the sensing unit that is touched, and i is the sequence number of sensing unit of being touched, and wherein i is more than or equal to 2.
For example, when finger touch at article one passage, its capacitance change is y1, the capacitance change on the second passage is that the capacitance change on y2 and the 3rd passage is when being y3.Wherein second channel y2 capacitance change is maximum.The Y coordinate just can be at last:
Y = y 1 * 1 + y 2 * 2 + y 3 * 3 y 1 + y 2 + y 3 .
