The measurement circuit 40 will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings.
First, the principle of the pressing operation detected by the measuring circuit 40 in the present invention will be described in detail with reference to an embodiment of the present invention.
Referring to fig. 3, the first and second center signals IN _ SIG1 and IN _ SIG2 are connected to the positive and negative input terminals front ends, respectively, of the first differential operation circuit 42 of the measurement circuit 40. Referring to fig. 4, the first center signal IN _ SIG1 and the first edge signal OUT _ SIG1 are connected to the positive and negative input terminals of the second differential operation circuit 43 of the measurement circuit 40, respectively. The voltages at the non-inverting input terminal and the inverting input terminal of the first differential operation circuit 42 are first voltages u1And a second voltage u2Flows through the second capacitor C2And a first resistor R11Respectively is iC1And iR1Output voltage of u(SIG A)(ii) a The voltages at the non-inverting input terminal and the inverting input terminal of the second differential operation circuit 43 are respectively the third voltage u3And a fourth voltage u4Through a third capacitor C3And a fourth resistor R14Respectively is iC2And iR2Output voltage of u(SIG B)
Current i of second center signal IN _ SIG2 when no pressure is applied to key location 11 on panel 102Is a direct current, so the first capacitor C1And a first resistor R11Current i ofC1And iR1Are all 0, output voltage u(SIGA)A first voltage u1Equal to the voltage u of the first center signal IN _ SIG1, i.e., u(SIGA)=u1=u(IN_SIG1)(ii) a Similarly, the current i of the first edge signal OUT _ SIG11Is also a direct current, so the second capacitor C2And a second resistor R12Current i ofC2And iR2Are all 0, output voltage u(SIGB)A third voltage u3U equal to the voltage u of the first center signal IN _ SIG1(SIGB)=u3=u(IN_SIG1)
Referring to fig. 7, an output terminal SIGA of the first differential operation circuit 42 and an output terminal SIGB of the second differential operation circuit 43 are respectively connected to the front ends of input terminals of the first comparator circuit 46, and voltages of a forward input terminal and a reverse input terminal of the first comparator circuit 46 are respectively u5And u6According to the working principle of the comparator circuit:
u5-u6
=u(SIGA)-0.2V-u(SIGB)
=u(IN_SIG1)-0.2V-u(IN_SIG1)
=-0.2V
that is, when no pressure is applied to the panel 10, the first press comparator 46 outputs a low level.
When a force is applied to the sensing panel at the key position 11, the relationship between the strain sensitive resistor and the curvature radius of the first surface 31 and the second surface 32 of the sensing plate 30 is known as follows: three induction resistors R for sensing the first surface of the plate1、R3、R5Becomes smaller, and R of the second surface becomes smaller2、R4、R6The resistance values of (2) are all increased. First to fourth strain sensitive resistors R in the present invention due to difference between the resistor discharge position and the pressing position1、R2、R3And R4Has a resistance variation amount larger than that of the fifth and sixth strain sensitive resistors R5And R6The amount of change in (c). At this time, the current i of the second center signal(IN_SIG2)For AC current, flows through the first capacitor C1And a first resistor R1Current i ofC1And iR1The following relationship is satisfied:
iC1=C2*du(IN_SIG2)/dt;
iR1=[u2-u(SIGA)]/R11
according to the principle of virtual shortness, u2=u3=u(IN_SIG1)Thus:
iR1=[u(IN_SIG1)-u(SIGA)]/R11
and due to C2And R11In a serial relationship, i.e. iC1=iR1Thus:
C2*du(IN_SIG2)/dt=[u(IN_SIG1)-u(SIGA)]/R11
that is to say that the first and second electrodes,
u(SIGA)=u(IN_SIG1)-R11*C2*du(IN_SIG2)/dt。
similarly, the voltage u at the output terminal of the second sensing circuit 43 can be obtained(SIGB)Comprises the following steps:
u(SIGB)=u(IN_SIG1)-R14*C3*du(OUT_SIG1)/dt;
at this time, the first comparator circuit 46 output voltage satisfies the following relationship:
u5-u6
=u(SIGA)-0.2V-u(SIGB)
={[u(IN_SIG1)-R11*C2*du(IN_SIG2)/dt]-0.2v}-[u(IN_SIG1)-R14*C3*du(OUT_SIG1)/dt]
=R14*C3*du(OUT_SIG1)/dt-R11*C2*du(IN_SIG2)/dt-0.2V。
from the above, when the sensing plate 30 is pressed, the third and fifth strain sensing resistors R3And R5Is increased, fourth and sixth strain sensing resistors R4And R6Is made small, and the third and fifth strain sensitive resistors R3And R4Is greater than the fourth and sixth strain sensitive resistors R5And R6So du is(IN_SIG2)And du(OUT_SIG1)Are all negative values and | du(IN_SIG2)| is greater than | du(OUT_SIG1)L, |; by adjusting the second capacitance C2A first resistor R11A third capacitor C3And a fourth resistor R14Can make the center of the key bear a certain pressureAnd when the voltage of the output end of the comparator circuit meets the following conditions:
u5-u6
=R14*C3*du(OUT_SIG1)/dt-R11*C2*du(IN_SIG2)/dt-0.2V>0。
during the period after the panel 10 is pressurized and before the force application object is removed, the voltage of the first edge signal OUT _ SIG1 remains unchanged, and thus du is(OUT_SIG1)At 0, the voltage at the output of the first comparator circuit 46 satisfies:
u5-u6
=u(SIGA)-0.2V-u(SIGB)
=u(IN_SIG1)-0.2V-u(IN_SIG1)
=-0.2V<0。
when the force application object leaves, du is(IN_SIG2)And du(OUT_SIG1)Are all positive values and | du(IN_SIG2)| is greater than | du(OUT_SIG1)I, the voltage at the output of the first comparator circuit 46 satisfies:
u5-u6
=R14*C3*du(OUT_SIG1)/dt-R11*C2*du(IN_SIG2)/dt-0.2V<0。
based on the above analysis, the difference Δ ═ u by the comparator circuits of the above four periods5-u6As a result, it can be seen that when the output terminal EN1 of the first comparator circuit 46 is at a high level, it indicates that the panel 10 is pressed, corresponding to the pressing action; in other cases, the output terminal EN1 of the first comparator circuit 46 is at a low level, and the function of detecting the pressing operation is realized.
As described above, the principle of determining the hand-up operation for the measurement circuit of the present invention is as follows: the second center signal IN _ SIG2 and the first center signal IN _ SIG1 are connected to the positive and negative input terminals of the third differential operation circuit 44 of the measurement circuit 40, respectively, and the second center signal IN _ SIG2 and the second edge signal OUT _ SIG2 are connected to the positive and negative input terminals of the fourth differential operation circuit 45 of the measurement circuit 40, respectivelyThe positive and negative input terminals front end, the output terminal SIGC of the third differential operation circuit 44 and the output terminal SIGD of the fourth differential operation circuit 45 are connected to the positive and negative input terminals of the second comparator circuit 47 by adjusting the fifth capacitor C5A seventh resistor R17A sixth capacitor C6And a ninth resistor R19The output end EN2 of the second comparator circuit 47 outputs a low level 0 before the hand is lifted after no-press, press and press, and outputs a high level 1 during the hand-lifting.
Similarly, referring to fig. 9, the principle of the measuring circuit in the present invention for implementing long press function is as follows: an output signal EN1 of the first comparator circuit 46 is input to the S terminal of the RS latch circuit, an output signal EN2 of the second comparator circuit 47 is input to the R terminal of the RS latch circuit, and when S is 0 and R is 1, an output Q of the RS latch is 0; when S is 1 and R is 0, Q is 1; q remains unchanged when S ═ R ═ 0, at which time Q and-Q interlock; when R ═ S ═ 1, the Q value is unstable (the simultaneous presence of pressing and raising is impossible, so the case of R ═ S ═ 1 does not exist). Therefore, a Q value of 1 can be obtained when pressing and before raising the hand after pressing, and a Q value of 0 can be obtained when raising the hand and without pressing, thereby realizing the long press function. The pressure-sensitive key function can be realized by inputting a Q value and matching with a relevant feedback circuit, such as an LED, a buzzer, a motor and the like.
In practical application, the size and position of the key region 11 can be adjusted within a certain range by adjusting the placement position of the strain sensing resistor and the parameters of the measuring circuit in the pressure sensing key device. For example, referring to fig. 10, the strain-sensing resistor on the first surface 31 is moved away from the center of the key region 11 along the direction indicated by the arrow, and the size and spacing of the rest of the resistors and the parameters of the measuring circuit 40 are adjusted to implement the function of pressure-sensitive key; accordingly, referring to fig. 11, the strain sensitive resistor on the second surface 32 is moved away from the center of the key region 11 along the direction shown by the arrow, and the size and the distance of the rest of the resistors and the parameters of the measuring circuit 40 are adjusted to realize the function of the pressure-sensitive key.
