Embodiment
Fig. 1 is the schematic diagram of the contact panel of one embodiment of the invention, and Fig. 2 is the schematic top plan view of contactor control device of the contact panel of application drawing 1.Please be simultaneously with reference to Fig. 1 and Fig. 2, the Drive and Control Circuit (drivingcircuit) 240 that resistance type touch control device 20 comprises a contact panel 10 and is connected to contact panel 10.
Contact panel 10 comprises one first transparency carrier 110, a plurality of the first conductive pattern 211~214, one second transparency carrier 120, a plurality of the second conductive pattern 221~224 and a plurality of sept 230.The first conductive pattern 211~214 is disposed on the first transparency carrier 110.The second transparency carrier 120 subtends are arranged at a side of the first transparency carrier 110.The second conductive pattern 221~224 is disposed on the second transparency carrier 120, and the first conductive pattern 211~214 and the second conductive pattern 221~224 are between the first transparency carrier 110 and the second transparency carrier 120.230 of septs are between the first transparency carrier 210 and the second transparency carrier 220.
The first conductive pattern 211~214 is parallel to each other to a first direction D1, and an end of the first conductive pattern 211~214 couples first electrode EX1~EX4, and couples second electrode EX5~EX6 at the relative other end.Simultaneously, the second conductive pattern 221~224 is parallel to each other to a second direction D2.One end of the second conductive pattern 221~224 couples third electrode EY1~EY4, and couples the 4th electrode EY5~EY6 at the relative other end.Wherein, first direction D1 and second direction D2 intersect, and are preferably mutually vertical.
The present embodiment is the contact panel 10 that consisted of take four the first conductive patterns 211~214 and four the second conductive patterns 221~224 as example describing, but the invention is not restricted to this.In other embodiments, contact panel 10 can be by more or still less conductive pattern intersects to arrange and forms.In the present embodiment, the overlapped part of the first conductive pattern 211~214 and the second conductive pattern 221~224 is formed with most induction blocks (sensing blocks).From the schematic top plan view of Fig. 2, always have 4 * 4=16 induction block.When the user pressed contact panel 10, the position that is pressed produced corresponding sensing signal because being in contact with one another conducting between the first conductive pattern and the second conductive pattern.
Drive and Control Circuit 240 is to couple first electrode EX1~EX4, second electrode EX5~EX6, third electrode EY1~EY4 and the 4th electrode EY5~EY6 with signal wire 241~244.Coupling mode by this, Drive and Control Circuit 240 can selectivity be set resistance type touch control device 20 operate in a figure pattern or a simulation model.
