Description

Sensing circuit discharge control method and device and contact panel, electronic installation
[technical field]
The invention relates to a kind of sensing circuit discharge control method and device and contact panel, electronic installation, clearer and more definite, be about a kind of each sensing circuit discharge control method that is used to control contact panel and device and contact panel, electronic installation.
[background technology]
Contact panel has been widely used in the various application.Contact panel comprises the staggered sense wire of direction in length and breadth, and it has sensing circuit and touches position on contact panel with sensing finger.
Fig. 1 is the sensing circuit 10 that shows existing contact panel.This sensing circuit 10 comprises sensing electrode 100 and discharge cell 110.This sensing electrode 100 has capacitance, that is: with the represented stray capacitance of capacitor 104.When the finger incident of touching took place, the total capacitance value of sensing electrode 100 can increase, and the touching of finger is equivalent to an extra capacitor, with sense capacitance 102 expressions.That is when finger touches, sense capacitance 102 has a non-vanishing capacitance, and when no finger touches, then the capacitance of this sense capacitance 102 is zero.Even have under the situation of finger touches, the capacitance of this sense capacitance 102 is much smaller than the capacitance of this stray capacitance 104.Revise that electric capacity 116 is used for compensate for parasitic capacitance so that the parasitic capacitance value of each sensing electrode 100 is can difference too not big.
This discharge cell is connected in voltage source V by switch 114 DDIn advance whole electric capacity (that is sense capacitance and stray capacitance) of sensing electrode are charged to a fixed voltage, for example 5V.Make first current source 127 and second current source 138 discharge successively by gauge tap 123 and switch 134 then.This first current source 127 is big current source, and its current value can be for example 300 μ A.This second current source 138 is little current source, and its current value can be for example 90nA.
The discharge mode of this sensing circuit 10 is to connect 127 one period set time of discharge of first current source (big current source) earlier.Be precharged to about the approximately remaining 1V of voltage of 5V.At big current source interdischarge interval, second current source (little current source) 138 is the disconnecting state.Then,, and connect little current source 138, residual charge release is finished big current source 127 disconnectings.Having finger to touch and do not having and point under the situation of touching, because the total capacitance value difference, the time of discharge off has notable difference.Therefore can utilize this mistiming incident that judged whether to touch to take place.
At whole interdischarge interval, the voltage of pre-charge is linear and descends, and this sensing circuit 10 has a comparer 145, is used for relatively this charging voltage and a reference voltage V Ref, its magnitude of voltage for example is 1V.When voltage drops to this below reference voltage level, comparer 145 promptly sends one and changes status signal.Begin to discharge into comparer 145 by calculating and send the time that changes status signal, can calibrate the sense capacitance value of representing the finger touches incident in view of the above.
See also Fig. 2, show that same sensing circuit is having finger to touch and do not having the discharge scenario of pointing under touching.The situation that first curve (with depicted as solid lines) expression has finger to touch, and second curve (with dotted lines) expression does not have the situation that finger touches.At first whole electric capacity are precharged to a predetermined voltage, 5V for example, the voltage drop Δ V that then must discharge is 5V.Then, big current source 127 is discharged to time t1, has this moment and points under the situation of touching, and total capacitance value is bigger, and the voltage of its release is reduced to Δ V1, points under the situation of touching and have, and total capacitance value is less, and the voltage of its release is reduced to Δ V1 '.Then, utilize little current source 138 that residual charge (correspondence has or not the voltage drop of touching to be respectively Δ V2, Δ V2 ') is discharged and finish, for there being finger to touch under the situation of incident, the time of discharge off is t2, and do not touch under the situation of incident for there being finger, the time of discharge off is t2 '.
Because factors such as processing procedure difference, the stray capacitance 104 of each sensing electrode 100 of contact panel may be different, although utilized correction electric capacity 116 to be compensated, but has difference slightly, in order to compensate this species diversity, the discharged condition of this big current source 127 need be readjusted by a small margin.In the prior art be by this big current source 127 of direct adjustment size of current for it.Generally speaking, these current sources constitute with the CMOS transistor, and the size of current of adjustment current source is just controlled and put on the transistorized voltage of CMOS.The fine-adjusting current size means must accurately provide required magnitude of voltage, for example 1.9V, 2.0V, 2.1V etc., yet, among a small circle, desire trim voltage and be worth technical suitable trouble and be not easy to reach.

[embodiment]
Hereinafter with reference to appended graphic detailed description technology contents of the present invention.
According to the present invention, utilize the interdischarge interval of big current source in the digital form fine setting sensing circuit, thus the inconsistency that difference caused between the stray capacitance in each sensing electrode of compensating touch control panel.
Fig. 3 shows the different discharge scenario of different sensing circuits.Similar with Fig. 2, wherein first curve table with depicted as solid lines is shown with the situation that finger touches the incident generation, and does not have the situation that finger touches the incident generation with second curve representation of dotted lines.As seen from the figure, situation about taking place with the nothing finger incident of touching is an example, former current source 127 greatly is discharged to time t1 from the time 0, different when total capacitance value, can be discharged to t1 ' or be advanced to t1 by this big current source 127 is delayed " (its corresponding curve is represented with dashed line in the drawings) reach and discharge identical voltage drop Δ V1 '.That is to say that even the stray capacitance difference of each sensing electrode, via the discharge time of the big current source of fine setting, the residual electricity pressure drop that needs at last to discharge by little current source 138 is the same.If little current source discharge current value is fixed, then Fang Dian time will be identical.Because little current source discharge current is much smaller than big current source discharge current, differ between the two and reach thousand times spectrum, the voltage drop that discharges be responsible for then only (voltage of for example big current source discharge is reduced to about 4V in the gap of several times, and the voltage of little current source discharge is reduced to about 1V), so little current source can be longer than big current source discharge time discharge time.Therefore, the fine setting of big current source discharge time can not impact the judgement that has or not sense capacitance (that is having or not finger to touch incident).
Fig. 4 shows and uses fixedly under the discharge current, different parasitic capacitance values required discharge time of length, and wherein white rectangular demonstration does not have to point and touches the sense capacitance total capacitance value of generation, that is its parasitic capacitance value C Par, and oblique line represents that partly the capacitance of pointing extra increase when touching is arranged, that is the sense capacitance value.According to the present invention, a time clock is provided, its cycle is T C, see this figure shown in the below, then the first parasitic capacitance value C as can be known ParBe nT 1 required discharge time C, n=12; The second parasitic capacitance value C ParBe mT 2 required discharge times C, m=8; Trixenie capacitance C ParBe oT 3 required discharge times C, o=15.Each parasitic capacitance value required discharge time is this clock cycle of T CDifferent multiples.Sense capacitance needed discharge time of almost fixed.Therefore, can be the clock cycle of how many integral multiples by adjusting big current source discharge time, and reach the purpose of finely tuning big current source discharged condition.

In calibration procedure,, reach a period of time t with big current source 427 discharges that have the fixed current value in the discharge cell 410 earlier then with stray capacitance 404 pre-charges in this sensing circuit 40 LS, to discharge up to discharge off with little current source 438 again, be t the discharge time of its medium and small current source 438 SS
Below the Fig. 7 that will cooperate demonstration to be used for the sensing circuit discharge control method according to the present invention simultaneously illustrates present embodiment.
This device 50 has an edge detecting device 52, a master controller 54, a reservoir 55, a voltage controller 56 and a time controlled-length apparatus 58.Calibration procedure begins in step S610.In step S620, master controller 54 is set big current source t discharge time LSAnd current value.T wherein LS=P * T C, T CBe the cycle of time clock.According to the present invention, master controller 54 is not t discharge time of the big current source 427 of direct setting LSLength, but set numerical value P, that is set the time t of big current source discharge LSBe P T clock cycle doubly CIn present embodiment, initial setting numerical value P is a conservative estimation value, that is a less value.And more easy to control at this because of voltage, therefore be to reach the purpose of setting its current value by the voltage V (its discharge current value is proportional to magnitude of voltage V) that sets big current source 427.From the above, step S620 represents to set P, V value among Fig. 7, is equivalent to set big current source t discharge time with indirect mode LSAnd current value.
In step S630, big current source discharge time and discharge current value that sensing circuit 40 uses master controller 54 to set make stray capacitance C ParDischarge is up to discharge off.In step S640, edge detector 52 detects the drop edge of the voltage waveform of its sensing electrodes of sensing circuit, that is when detects discharge off.Edge detector 52 have a counter (not shown) be used to calculate discharge waveform during be corresponding to several clock cycles.Edge detector 52 delivers testing result to these master controller 54 judgements total discharge time of t P(t P=t LS+ t SS) whether be shorter than a schedule time t dIn other words, check and adopt these setting values to discharge, whether in the given time discharge off.If of course, the expression setting value is suitable value, and then master controller 54 is stored to reservoir 55 with these setting values, and this is step S645.If discharge off represents that then the voltage drop of big current source release is not enough in the given time, need to adjust.
After judging that palpus is adjusted big current source discharged condition, according to present embodiment, in step S650, master controller 54 is judged big current source t discharge time that sets earlier LSWhether surpassed maximum discharge time of the t that is allowed MaxIf do not surpass as yet, then adjust the setting of P.In present embodiment, because initial P value is set at than low value, therefore the adjustment of being carried out can be a little increases, that is the P shown in the step S655 among Fig. 7 N=P O+ Δ p, wherein P NRepresent adjusted P value, P OExpression P value originally, Δ p is number clock cycle that increases a little.The for example initial P that sets is 7, that is be 7 times of clock cycles, just P big current source discharge time of initial setting O=7, and can increase by 1 cycle (that is Δ p=1) a little, the P value is adjusted into 8, just big current source is adjusted into 8 times of clock cycles, just P discharge time N=7+1=8.Adjust after the P value, return step S630, big current source discharge time and discharge current value that sensing circuit 40 uses master controller 54 to be adjusted make stray capacitance C ParDischarge is up to discharge off.
Because big current source can not unrestrictedly prolong discharge time, therefore upper limit t discharge time is arranged MaxStipulate.According to present embodiment, if judge t at step S650 through repeatedly adjusting the P value LSSurpass t Max, then in step S660 with the P value initial setting value of resetting back, and adjust V value (V by voltage controller 56 N=V O+ Δ v; V wherein NRepresent adjusted magnitude of voltage, V OExpression magnitude of voltage originally, Δ v are the magnitude of voltage that increases a little).
Utilize the present invention, can significantly reduce the number of times of adjusting the big current source discharge current (voltage) in the contact panel sensing circuit, and adopt numeral to adjust the discharge time of big current source, thereby reach the sense capacitance discharge time of each sensing circuit of calibration, to get rid of the inconsistent problem that causes stray capacitance difference to be caused because of the processing procedure factor.
