Embodiment
Fig. 1 is the synoptic diagram of a contactor control device 1 of one embodiment of the invention.Please refer to Fig. 1, contactor control device 1 comprises a contact panel 50 and a location device 100.Contact panel 50 is a capacitance type touch-control panel, and it is on X-axis and Y-axis, and (inter leaved) carries out the configuration of diamond shaped electrode matrix in shaft staggered mode.Wherein, the electrode system on the X-axis on each sweep trace CIN0~CIN7 electrically conducts, and the electrode on each sweep trace CIN8~CIN15 also electrically conducts on the Y-axis.Locating device 100 comprises multiplexer 110, converter unit 120 and processing unit 130.
Multiplexer 110 couples contact panel 50.When touching contact panel 50, diamond shaped electrode and touch-control instrument form capacitive coupling and the capacitance of sensor institute sensing are changed when touch-control instrument (for example: finger or pointer).Therefore, when when detecting of touching of carrying out contact panel 50, multiplexer 110 drives the capacitance on each sweep trace of converting unit 120 sensings in order just according to scanning sequency.For instance, scanning sequency is sweep trace in order
CIN0 → CIN1... → CIN7 → CIN8 → CIN9... → CIN15 → CIN0..., via detecting the coordinate that touch position is positioned at X-axis and Y-axis, just can two-dimensional coordinate location touch position.
Converting unit 120 is an analog-digital converter (analog to digital converter, ADC), can (capacitance to digital converter, CDC), it couples between multiplexer 110 and the processing unit 130 for an electric capacity digital quantizer.Converting unit 120 is converted to the capacitance of digital format in order to the capacitance with analog format, so that processing unit 130 interpretations and processing.
Processing unit is a microcontroller (micro-controller), and it comprises and touches detecting device 131, peak detctor 132 and position detector 133.Touch detecting device 131 and couple converting unit 120, its capacitance and one according to 120 sensings of converting unit touches the comparative result of critical value, the touch-control instrument that is changed to of judging capacitance touches (or approaching) contact panel 50 to be caused or is caused by noise, carries out unnecessary computing with the capacitance variation of avoiding noise is caused.Peak detctor 132 couples converting unit 120 and touches detecting device 131.When the touch-control instrument touches or during near contact panel 50, converting unit 120 can form the curve with Wave crest and wave trough at the capacitance of each sweep trace institute sensing.Present embodiment adopt a moving window choose the one scan line with and adjacent scanning line subset on the capacitance of institute's sensing, judge to carry out crest, moving window displacement one scan seriatim line wherein, when the capacitance of the sweep trace of choosing capacitance, then be judged as crest greater than its scanning line subset.
Position detector 133 couples converting unit 120 and peak detctor 132.Position detector 133 is judged the sweep trace coordinate that is touched according to the position of crest, then orients touch position.Generally speaking, sensing the sweep trace coordinate of crest capacitance can be very near touch position.Be subject to the size design of diamond shaped electrode, the resolution that contact panel shows is usually above the resolution of electrode matrix configuration.The diamond shaped electrode size is big more, relatively can reduce the resolution that detects touch position.
For instance, Fig. 2 is the synoptic diagram of the capacitance of 120 sensings of converting unit among embodiment of the invention Fig. 1.Please refer to Fig. 1 and Fig. 2, when touching contact panel 50 on touch position A shown in Figure 1 and B, the capacitance of sweep trace CIN0~CIN7 institute sensing is respectively capacitance C0~C7 shown in Figure 2 when the user utilizes touch-control instrument (for example finger, pointer etc.).With reference to moving window 210, at first choose the capacitance C1 of institute's sensing on the capacitance C0 of institute's sensing on the sweep trace CIN0 and the adjacent sweep trace CIN1 thereof.Because capacitance C0 is less than touching critical value C TH, therefore touch detecting device 131 and judge that sense capacitance value C0 is not in the state of touching.This means that also touch position is not positioned at capacitance C0 corresponding scanning beam CIN0 position, locatees touch position so need not that capacitance C0 and C1 are carried out computing.Then, with moving window 210 displacement one scan to the right line, with the capacitance of institute's sensing on the capacitance C1 that chooses institute's sensing on the sweep trace CI N1 and the adjacent scanning line subset thereof, for example the capacitance C0 and the C2 of institute's sensing on adjacent sweep trace CIN0 in both sides and the CIN2.Because capacitance C1 is also less than touching critical value C THSo, touch detecting device 131 and judge that sense capacitance value C1 also are not in the state of touching, need not that capacitance C0, C1 and C2 are carried out computing and locate touch position.
Next, moving window 211 is chosen the capacitance C1 and the C3 of institute's sensing on adjacent sweep trace CIN1 in the capacitance C2 of institute's sensing on the sweep trace CIN2 and both sides thereof and the CIN3.At this moment, capacitance C2 is greater than touching critical value C TH, expression capacitance C2 is that contact tool touches or caused near contact panel 50, can be in the state of touching by judgement sense capacitance value C2 so touch detecting device 131.Then, peak detctor 132 can detect capacitance C2 and be higher than adjacent capacitance C1 and C3 according to capacitance C1~C3, and then judges that capacitance C2 is the crest capacitance.That is to say that touch position is approaching or is positioned on the capacitance C2 corresponding scanning beam coordinate.Similarly, be positioned at Y-axis coordinate on the sweep trace CIN10 via calculating touch position A, just can two-dimensional coordinate D (x y) locatees touch position A, and related operation is in the back explanation.
Choose the capacitance C2 and the C4 of institute's sensing on adjacent sweep trace CIN2 in the capacitance C3 of institute's sensing on the sweep trace CIN3 and both sides thereof and the CIN4 with reference to moving window 212.Though capacitance C3 corresponding scanning beam CIN3 can because of capacitance C3 greater than touching critical value C THAnd be judged as the state of touching, but according to the comparative result between capacitance C2~C4, can learn that capacitance C3 is not the crest capacitance, this also represent touch position near but be not positioned on the capacitance C3 corresponding scanning beam coordinate, thereby capacitance C2~C4 is not carried out computing and locatees touch position.Then, choose under the situation of capacitance C3, C4 and C5 at moving window 212 displacement one scan to the right line, and moving window 212 displacement one scan more to the right line and choosing under the situation of capacitance C4, C5 and C6, because being not more than, capacitance C4 and C5 touch critical value C THSo processing mode such as capacitance C0 and C1 are identical, need not carry out computing to the capacitance that is captured and locate touch position.
Then, choose the capacitance C5 and the C7 of institute's sensing on adjacent sweep trace CIN5 in the capacitance C6 of institute's sensing on the sweep trace CIN6 and both sides thereof and the CIN7 with reference to moving window 213.Because capacitance C6 is greater than touching critical value C TH, and capacitance C6 is the crest capacitance greater than adjacent capacitance C5 and C7, thus position detector 133 judge touch position near or be positioned on the capacitance C6 corresponding scanning beam coordinate, related operation is in the back explanation.In the present embodiment,, and analyze whether the capacitance that is captured is the mode of crest capacitance, can exempt computing unnecessary when locating touch position, can reduce operand effectively via capacitance that is relatively captured and the mode of touching critical value.
According to above-mentioned explanation, can reduce following method flow at this.Fig. 3 is the process flow diagram of localization method of the contactor control device of one embodiment of the invention.Please refer to Fig. 3, the capacitance (step S301) on sensing i sweep trace and the scanning line subset adjacent at first with the i sweep trace, wherein scanning line subset comprises adjacent i-1 sweep trace and i+1 sweep trace.Then, according to the capacitance of institute's sensing on the i sweep trace and touch critical value, judge whether the i sweep trace is in the state of touching (step S302), and when the i sweep trace is in when touching state, according to the capacitance of above-mentioned institute sensing, judge whether the capacitance of institute's sensing on the i sweep trace is crest capacitance (step S303) further.The capacitance of institute's sensing is the crest capacitance on the i sweep trace, and then the capacitance according to institute's sensing calculates touch position (step S304).On the contrary, when the i sweep trace is not in the state of touching, perhaps when the capacitance of institute's sensing on the i sweep trace is not the crest capacitance, need not carries out computing to the capacitance that is captured and locate touch position.Below be described in detail the computing of location touching device.
Fig. 4 is the process flow diagram of the calculating touch position of embodiment of the invention Fig. 3.Generally speaking, capacitance is proportional to diamond shaped electrode and the capacity coupled area of touch-control instrument.Because the length information that corresponding a certain axial coordinate position is an one dimension but not the area information of two dimension, therefore the computing of in the past directly adopting capacitance to carry out center-of-mass coordinate is used as the mode of touch position, and often the touch position with reality has bigger error.Therefore, position detector 133 is according to the capacitance C of i sweep trace institute sensing iAnd the capacitance C of scanning line subset institute sensing I+1And C I-1, calculate capacitance C i, C I+1And C I-1Length value, and locate touch position according to this.For instance, length value can be the square root of the capacitance of institute's sensing on the sweep trace.
In addition, because the touch-control instrument touches the sweep trace quantity that the area effect sensing of contact panel 50 has capacitance variation, in order to improve the accuracy of location touch position, position detector 133 is more according to the reference factor alpha that is relevant to touch-control instrument area, to position the computing of touch position, wherein be inversely proportional to and greater than 1 with reference to the area of factor alpha and touch-control instrument.This can be according to circuit structure and design with reference to factor alpha and different, for pointer, can be 1.4 with reference to coefficient, and for the finger of touching area greater than pointer, can be 1.15 with reference to coefficient.
211 selected capacitance C1~C3 are example with moving window, and position detector 133 calculates the length value of capacitance C1~C3 respectively according to capacitance C2 and adjacent capacitance C1 and C3 thereof
