Specific embodiment
In order to make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the present invention clearer, with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments, right The present invention is further elaborated.It should be appreciated that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present invention, and It is not used in the restriction present invention.
In embodiments of the present invention, capacitance sensing circuit and the applicable electronic product of self-capacitance type touch panel include but not It is limited to be mobile phone, tablet computer, laptop and electronic reader etc..Below in conjunction with specific embodiment to of the invention Specific implementation is described in detail.
As shown in Fig. 2, being the schematic diagram of one capacitance sensing circuit 20 of the embodiment of the present invention.For convenience of explanation, capacitor sense Slowdown monitoring circuit 20 only symbolically includes channel C H_K-1, CH_K, CH_K+1 and buffer BUF1, BUF2, channel C H_K-1, CH_ K, in CH_K+1, each channel is to be concatenated by multiple capacitive sensing units 200, and capacitive sensing unit 200 is with equivalent Resistance RSWith equivalent capacity CS
By taking capacitance sensing circuit 20 as an example, channel CH_K is channel to be measured, and in other words, channel CH_K penetrates resistance RTXIt connects Receive input signal VTXAnd generate output signal VO, according to input signal VTXIt is the capacitor that can determine whether channel CH_K with output signal Vo Value.However, channel CH_K-1 and CH_K+1 is adjacent and is parallel to channel CH_K, and crosstalk capacitance is formed between channel CH_K CC, correct each channel it is inconsistent when, crosstalk capacitance CCIt will cause puzzlement.In order to solve crosstalk capacitance CCCaused is tired It disturbs, the present embodiment couples buffer BUF1, BUF2 between channel to be measured channel adjacent thereto.Specifically, buffer BUF1 It is coupled between channel CH_K and channel CH_K-1, buffer BUF2 is coupled between channel CH_K and channel CH_K+1, buffering Device BUF1, BUF2 are all unity gain buffer (Unity Gain Buffer), and buffer BUF1, BUF2 are used to make channel CH_ The voltage V of K-1, channel CH_K+1K-1、VK+1Output signal Vo equal to channel CH_K, in this way, crosstalk capacitance CCBoth ends There is no potential difference, crosstalk capacitance CCCharge will not be stored, crosstalk capacitance C can be eliminatedCCaused crosstalk effect.
On the other hand, in practical applications, crosstalk capacitance CCAlthough both ends without potential difference, however, due to buffer The bandwidth of BUF1, BUF2 are limited, crosstalk capacitance CCBoth ends (i.e. output signal Vo and voltage VK-1、VK+1Between) there may be phases Potential difference, and may influence whether output signal Vo.It in this case, can be by reducing input signal VTXFrequency reduce crosstalk Capacitor CCTo influence caused by output signal Vo.Specifically, Fig. 3 is please referred to, Fig. 3 is the single order electricity of capacitance sensing circuit 20 Road model schematic, channel C H_K-1, CH_K, CH_K+1 are respectively provided with equivalent resistance R_K-1, R_K, R_K+1 and equivalent capacity C_K-1, C_K, C_K+1, the overall crosstalk capacitor between channel CH_K-1 and channel CH_K can be equivalent to crosstalk capacitance CC_ 1, letter Overall crosstalk capacitor between road CH_K and channel CH_K+1 can be equivalent to crosstalk capacitance CC_2.In Fig. 3, according to Kirchhoff Current law (Kirchhoff's Current Law, KCL), the electric current for flowing through node A meet:
(formula 1);
Wherein, ω system is input signal VTXFrequency, can be input signal VTXDriving frequency.If output signal Vo With voltage VK-1、VK+1Between phase difference be respectively φ1And φ2, voltage VK-1With voltage VK+1It is represented by Vk-1=VOexp{jω φ1And Vk+1=VOexp{jωφ2, by aforesaid voltage VK-1With voltage VK+1Expression substitute into formula 1 can obtain
(formula 2);
By formula 2 it is found that working as phase difference1、φ2When not being 0, crosstalk capacitance CC_1、CC_ 2 still can generate shadow to output signal Vo It rings, input signal V can be madeTXFrequencies omega be lower than a specific frequency, to inhibit crosstalk capacitance CC_1、CC_ 2 pairs of output signal Vo institutes The influence of generation.
It can be seen from the above, capacitance sensing circuit utilization is coupled between channel to be measured and its adjacent channel in the embodiment of the present invention Unity gain buffer, to reduce the potential difference between channel to be measured and its adjacent channel, while reducing the frequency of input signal Rate, to reduce the crosstalk effect between channel.Compared to the prior art, the capacitance sensing circuit in the embodiment of the present invention can reduce Correct interchannel it is inconsistent when because of crosstalk capacitance caused by puzzlement, more can correctly correct interchannel because of circuit trace or system Make inconsistent caused by the factors such as technique.
It is noted that previous embodiment is to illustrate idea of the invention, those skilled in the art works as can evidence To do different modifications, and it is without being limited thereto.
For example, capacitance sensing circuit 20 only includes 3 channels, in fact, believing included in capacitance sensing circuit Road number is not limited.Referring to FIG. 4, Fig. 4 is the schematic diagram of two capacitance sensing circuit 40 of the embodiment of the present invention, capacitor sense Slowdown monitoring circuit 40 includes channel CH_K-L~CH_K+R and multiple unity gain buffer BUF, for the sake of clarity, therefore omits each channel The circuit model of middle crosstalk capacitance, and channel CH_K-L~CH_K+R is represented with rectangular block, wherein channel CH_K is to believe to side Road.Buffer BUF can be controlled by the control signal corresponding to each buffer BUF, to control the enabled of each buffer BUF (Enable) state.Each buffer BUF is coupled to any one non-channel (i.e. channel CH_K-L~CH_K-1 and channel to be measured One of CH_K+1~CH_K+R channel) and between the channel CH_K of side, so that the output voltage of each non-channel to be measured With the output signal V to side channel CH_KOIt is equal, also meet requirement of the invention.
In addition, capacitance sensing circuit 40 can be applied in self-capacitance type touch panel.Referring to FIG. 5, Fig. 5 is that the present invention is implemented The schematic diagram of three self-capacitance type touch panel 50 of example.Self-capacitance type touch panel 50 includes input signal generator 500, capacitor judgement Module 502 and capacitance sensing circuit 52_1~52_N, input signal generator 500 are used to generate input signal VTX, capacitor judgement Module 502 is used to receive output signal V caused by capacitance sensing circuit 52_1~52_NO_ 1~VO_ N, to judge capacitance sensing To the capacitance of wing passage, circuit structure and the capacitance sensing electricity of capacitance sensing circuit 52_1~52_N in circuit 52_1~52_N Road 40, details are not described herein.
