Detailed Description
In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the present application more apparent, some embodiments of the present application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present application and are not intended to limit the present application.
The first embodiment of the present application relates to a detection method of a sensing module, which is applied to a touch chip, wherein the touch chip is connected to the sensing module to detect whether an open Circuit phenomenon exists in the sensing module, and a Flexible Printed Circuit (FPC) extending from the sensing module and the touch chip is pressed together. However, the sensing module can be detected by a special testing tool, and the sensing module is connected to the testing tool. It should be noted that, because the touch screen can be formed after the sensing module and the touch chip are assembled together, the touch chip is connected to the sensing module and the sensing module is detected by the touch chip, when the detection result of the sensing module is that there is no open circuit, it indicates that the touch screen (finished product) is qualified, and the touch screen is connected to the touch chip after the detection is not successful, which is very convenient and fast.
In this embodiment, the induction module includes many induction channels that arrange in proper order and each other non-intersect, and the induction module can be the single face module in the bilayer structure touch-sensitive screen, perhaps is the induction module in the monolayer structure touch-sensitive screen. In the present embodiment, the structure of a touch screen with a double-layer structure, such as a touch screen with a double-layer Indium Tin Oxide (ITO) circuit, can refer to fig. 1.
A specific flow of the detection method of the sensing module of this embodiment is shown in fig. 2, wherein, referring to fig. 3, taking the sensing module as a single-sided module 41 (an unpressurized single-sided module) in a touch screen with a double-layer structure, and the single-sided module 41 has n TX channels as an example, the single-sided module 41 is connected to a touch chip 42, and the n TX channels of the single-sided module 41 are pressed together with a flexible circuit board FPC43 extending from the touch chip 42; the plurality of sensing channels in the sensing module are n TX channels of the single-sided module 41. It should be noted that, in the embodiment and the following embodiments, the sensing module is taken as a single-side module in the touch screen with a double-layer structure for illustration.
Step 101, respectively performing suspended sampling on a plurality of mutually disjoint sensing channels included in the sensing module to obtain first sampling data of each sensing channel.
Specifically, the touch chip generally comprises a coding unit and a sampling unit, and the touch chip respectively performs suspended sampling on each TX channel through the sampling unit to obtain first sampling data of each TX channel; the suspended sampling specifically includes controlling a sampled TX channel to be connected to a sampling unit only, and acquiring first sampling data of the TX channel through the sampling unit. When one TX channel is subjected to suspended sampling, other TX channels are in a suspended state so as to avoid mutual interference; the TX channel in a suspended state means that the TX channel is not connected with the coding unit and the sampling unit. However, the floating sampling of the first sampling data of the multiple TX channels may be performed in parallel, or may be performed sequentially, or performed in groups sequentially, which may be determined according to the configuration of hardware (for example, the number of ADCs) or software parameters in the system.
And 102, taking the two induction channels as a group, and respectively carrying out mutual capacitance detection on each group of induction channels.
Specifically, one of any two TX channels of the n TX channels is used as a coding channel, and the other TX channel is used as a sampling channel to obtain second sampling data of the other TX channel. And sequentially carrying out mutual capacitance detection on each group of channels to obtain corresponding second sampling data. That is, any two sensing channels are taken as a group, and any one TX channel is at least included in one group of sensing channels; and then, performing mutual capacitance detection on each group of induction channels respectively, specifically, connecting two TX channels in one group of induction channels inside the touch chip, controlling to code one channel in the group of induction channels, and sampling the other channel, so as to obtain second sampling data of the other channel. Each group of induction channels carries out mutual capacitance detection in sequence, namely, only one group of induction channels carries out mutual capacitance detection at the same moment, and other groups of induction channels are all in a suspended state when one group of induction channels carry out mutual capacitance detection so as to avoid mutual interference.
It should be noted that fig. 2 only schematically shows the execution sequence of step 101 and step 102, but is not limited to this, and step 102 may be executed first and then step 101 is executed.
And 103, for each induction channel with the second sampling data, obtaining a detection result of whether the induction module has an open circuit phenomenon according to the second sampling data and the first sampling data of each induction channel.
Specifically, for the TX channel having the second sampling data, the detection result of whether the single-side module (the sense module) has the open circuit phenomenon can be obtained according to the difference data between the second sampling data and the first sampling data of the TX channel.
Compared with the prior art, the method includes the steps that firstly, all induction channels in the induction module are controlled to be in a suspended state, and suspended sampling is conducted on the induction channels respectively to obtain first sampling data of the induction channels; then, two induction channels are used as a group, and mutual capacitance detection is respectively carried out on each group of induction channels, so that second sampling data of each induction channel with the second sampling data are obtained; and finally, obtaining a detection result of whether the induction module has an open circuit phenomenon or not according to the difference data of the second sampling data and the first sampling data of each induction channel. Namely, the induction module is detected based on the mutual capacitance detection principle, so that the detection cost is low, and the detection is simple and feasible; meanwhile, the method can be applied to detection of the single induction module in the double-layer structure touch screen, so that the single induction module with an open circuit phenomenon is removed in time before the double-layer structure touch screen is assembled, and subsequent loss is reduced.
The second embodiment of the present application relates to a method for detecting a sensing module, which is a refinement based on the first embodiment, and mainly comprises the following steps: two adjacent sensing channels are used as a group.
The specific flow of the detection method of the sensing module in this embodiment is shown in fig. 4.
Step 201 and step 203 are substantially the same as step 101 and step 103, and are not described herein again, with the main difference that step 202 specifically includes:
step 202, two adjacent sensing channels are used as a group, and mutual capacitance detection is performed on each group of sensing channels.
In the embodiment, two adjacent sensing channels are taken as a group, the distance between the adjacent sensing channels is short, and the signal-to-noise ratio is high, so that the more accurate the data obtained by sampling is, and the more accurate the detection result is.
In this embodiment, two adjacent sensing channels are taken as a group, which includes two schemes, specifically as follows:
the first scheme is as follows: taking the ith induction channel and the (i + 1) th induction channel as a group, and respectively carrying out mutual capacitance detection on each group of induction channels; each induction channel is sequentially numbered according to the physical position arrangement sequence, wherein i is 1, 2, 3, … … and n-1, and n is the total number of the induction channels; taking the ith induction channel and the (i + 1) th induction channel as a group, so as to obtain n-1 groups of induction channels; wherein, no matter n is an odd number or an even number, the ith sensing channel and the (i + 1) th sensing channel can be grouped according to the above mode. Referring to fig. 5, taking the sensing module as a single-sided module with 9 TX channels as an example, eight sets of sensing channels can be obtained, the first set of sensing channels: TX1, TX2, second set of sense channels: TX2, TX3, third set of inductive channels: TX3, TX4 and the like, eight groups of induction channels can be obtained; during mutual capacitance detection, except for the head induction channel and the tail induction channel, the middle induction channels are detected twice, and the detection reliability is higher.
Preferably, when the mutual capacitance detection is respectively carried out on each group of induction channels, the former induction channel in each group of induction channels is coded, and the latter induction channel is sampled to obtain second sampling data of the latter induction channel; or, the next sensing channel in each group of sensing channels is coded, and the previous sensing channel is sampled to obtain second sampling data of the previous sensing channel. Taking the single-sided module of fig. 5 as an example, the coding sampling method is as follows: coding TX1, sampling TX2, coding TX2, sampling TX3, coding TX3, sampling TX4, and the like, so that second sampling data of channels TX2 to TX9 can be obtained; alternatively, TX9 is coded and sampled at TX8, TX8 is coded and sampled at TX7, TX7 is coded and sampled at TX6, and so on, so that second sampled data of channels TX8 to TX1 can be obtained. The coding sampling is performed according to the above manner, and the second sampling data of 8 TX channels of the 9 TX channels can be obtained, that is, the second sampling data of n-1 sensing channels of the n sensing channels can be obtained, so that the detection result obtained by analyzing in step 303 is more reliable.
Scheme II: when the total number n of the sensing channels included in the sensing module is an odd number, only one sensing channel of all the sensing channels is included in two sets of sensing channels, and the other sensing channels are included in only one set of sensing channels, so as to obtain (n-1)/2+1 sets of sensing channels, please refer to fig. 6, taking the sensing module as a single-sided module having 9 TX channels as an example, then the 9 TX channels in the single-sided module can be divided into five sets, the first set of sensing channels: TX1, TX2, second set of sense channels: TX3, TX4, third set of inductive channels: TX5, TX6, fourth set of sense channels: TX7, TX8, fifth set of sense channels: TX8, TX 9; when the total number n of the induction channels included by the induction module is an even number, any induction channel is only contained in one group of induction channels, and n/2 groups of induction channels can be obtained; referring to fig. 7, taking the sensing module as a single-sided module having 8 TX channels as an example, the 8 TX channels in the single-sided module can be divided into four groups, the first group of sensing channels: TX1, TX2, second set of sense channels: TX3, TX4, third set of inductive channels: TX5, TX6, fourth set of sense channels: TX7, TX 8; during mutual capacitance detection, when the induction module comprises odd induction channels, except the last but one induction channel, other induction channels only need to be detected once; when the induction module comprises an even number of induction channels, each group of induction channels only need to be detected once, and the detection is simpler and faster.
It should be noted that, in this embodiment, two adjacent sensing channels are taken as a group, but not limited to this, when the gap between adjacent channels is small enough and the signal-to-noise ratio is high enough, two non-adjacent sensing channels may also be taken as a group, taking the single-sided module in fig. 7 as an example, the channels TX1 and TX3 are divided into a group, the channels TX5 and TX7 are divided into a group, the channels TX2 and TX4 are divided into a group, and the channels TX6 and TX8 are divided into a group, or the channels TX1 and TX2 are divided into a group, the channels TX1 and TX3 are divided into a group, the channels TX2 and TX4 are divided into a group, the channels TX5 and TX7 are divided into a group, and the channels TX6 and TX8 are divided into a group.
The third embodiment of the present application relates to a method for detecting a sensing module, which is a refinement based on the second embodiment, and the main refinement is as follows: a specific method for judging whether an open circuit exists in a sensing module is provided.
The specific flow of the detection method of the sensing module in this embodiment is shown in fig. 8.
Step 301 and step 302 are substantially the same as step 201 and step 202, and are not described herein again, but mainly differ in that:
step 301, performing floating sampling on a plurality of non-intersecting sensing channels included in the sensing module respectively to obtain first sampling data of each sensing channel.
Step 302, two sensing channels are used as a group, and mutual capacitance detection is performed on each group of sensing channels.
Specifically, the sensing module includes n sensing channels, and when the ith sensing channel and the (i + 1) th sensing channel are taken as a group according to the first scheme in the second embodiment, n-1 groups of sensing channels can be obtained, and when mutual capacitance detection is performed, the former sensing channel in each group of sensing channels is coded, and the latter sensing channel is sampled, and second sampling data of the latter sensing channel is obtained, for example, second sampling data of n-1 sensing channels except for the 1 st sensing channel can be obtained.
Step 303, for each sensing channel having the second sampling data, obtaining a detection result of whether the sensing module has an open circuit phenomenon according to the second sampling data and the first sampling data of each sensing channel, specifically including:
and a substep 3031, for each sensing channel with the second sampling data, obtaining a second eigenvalue of the sensing channel according to the second sampling data of the sensing channel, and obtaining a first eigenvalue of the sensing channel according to the first sampling data of the sensing channel.
Specifically, for each sensing channel with second sampling data, filtering, smoothing and the like are performed on the second sampling data of each sensing channel to filter noise interference in the second sampling data, so that a second characteristic value of each sensing channel is obtained; obtaining a second characteristic value of each sensing channel from second sampling data of n-1 sensing channels, and representing the second characteristic value of each sensing channel by using D _ RAW; specifically, the second feature value of the 2 nd sensing channel is D _ RAW2, the second feature value of the 3 rd sensing channel is D _ RAW3, … …, and the second feature value of the nth sensing channel is D _ RAW, so that the second feature values D _ RAW2 to D _ RAW of the 2 nd to nth sensing channels can be obtained. Similarly, the first sampling data of each sensing channel is subjected to filtering, smoothing and other processing to filter noise interference in the first sampling data, so that a first characteristic value of each sensing channel is obtained; obtaining a first characteristic value of each sensing channel from first sampling data of n-1 sensing channels, and representing the first characteristic value of each sensing channel by using D _ REF; specifically, the first characteristic value of the 2 nd sensing channel is D _ REF2, the first characteristic value of the 3 rd sensing channel is D _ REF3, … …, and the first characteristic value of the nth sensing channel is D _ REFn, so that the first characteristic values D _ REF2 to D _ REFn of the 2 nd to nth sensing channels can be obtained.
And a substep 3032 of calculating a difference value between the first characteristic value of the sensing channel and the second characteristic value of the sensing channel, and taking the difference value as a detection value corresponding to the sensing channel.
Specifically, a difference value between a first characteristic value and a second characteristic value of each sensing channel is calculated, and the difference value is used as a detection value corresponding to the sensing channel; specifically, the detection value corresponding to the 2 nd sensing channel is represented as DIFF2, the detection value corresponding to the 3 rd sensing channel is represented as DIFF3, … …, and the detection value corresponding to the nth sensing channel is represented as DIFF n, that is, the detection values DIFF2 to DIFF n corresponding to the 2 nd to nth sensing channels can be obtained. It should be noted that the difference between the first characteristic value of the sensing channel and the second characteristic value of the sensing channel may be understood as the difference between the first characteristic value and the second characteristic value, or the difference between the second characteristic value and the first characteristic value.
Substep 3033, judging whether the detection value corresponding to at least one induction channel in the detection values corresponding to the induction channels is smaller than a preset threshold corresponding to the group of the induction channels; if yes, judging that the detection result of the induction module is that an open circuit phenomenon exists; if not, the detection result of the induction module is judged to be that the open circuit phenomenon does not exist.
Specifically, for each sensing channel, if there is no open circuit phenomenon in both sensing channels in a group of sensing channels where the sensing channel is located, a larger difference (i.e., a larger detection value) should exist between a first characteristic value D _ REF and a second characteristic value D _ RAW of the sensing channel, that is, the detection value of the sensing channel is larger than a preset threshold corresponding to the group of sensing channels, and if at least one of the detection values DIFF2 to DIFFn corresponding to the 2 nd to nth sensing channels is smaller than the preset threshold corresponding to the group where the sensing channel is located, it is indicated that at least one of the 2 nd to nth sensing channels is open circuit, and it is determined that the detection result of the sensing module is the open circuit phenomenon; otherwise, the detection result of the induction module is judged to be that no open circuit phenomenon exists. Wherein the preset threshold is set by a tester according to experience; specifically, the size of the preset threshold of each group of sensing channels is related to the distance between two sensing channels in the group of sensing channels, and the smaller the distance between the two sensing channels is, the larger the coupling performance is; when the code printing signals are the same, the distance between the two sensing channels in the group of sensing channels is smaller, and the difference between the second sampling data and the first sampling data is larger; therefore, if the preset threshold is set as the difference between the second characteristic value (obtained by processing the second sampling data) and the first characteristic value (obtained by processing the first sampling data) corresponding to the same sensing channel, the smaller the distance between the two sensing channels is, the larger the preset threshold is; conversely, the larger the distance between the two sensing channels is, the smaller the preset threshold value is. If the adjacent induction channels are taken as a group, the preset threshold values of all the groups of induction channels are equal; if the adjacent sensing channels are not grouped, the preset threshold of each group of sensing channels needs to be set according to the division mode of each group.
In this embodiment, under the condition that it is determined that the detection result of the sensing module has an open circuit phenomenon, it may be further determined whether each sensing channel is open-circuited.
If in step 302, according to the first embodiment: taking the ith sensing channel and the (i + 1) th sensing channel as a group as an example, a specific determination manner of whether each sensing channel is open-circuited is as follows, where THR represents a preset threshold.
(1) When i is 1, then:
if DIFF2 is greater than or equal to THR, the sensing channel 1 is normal.
If DIFF2 is less than THR and DIFF3 is more than or equal to THR, the sensing channel 1 is open.
(2)1< i < n, then:
if DIFFI is larger than or equal to THR and DIFFI +1 is larger than or equal to THR, the induction channel i is normal.
If DIFFI is less than THR and DIFFI +1 is more than or equal to THR, the induction channel i-1 is open-circuited.
If DIFFI is larger than or equal to THR and DIFFI +1 is smaller than THR, the sensing channel i +1 is opened.
(3) When i is n, then:
if DIFFn is larger than or equal to THR, the sensing channel n is normal.
If DIFFn is less than THR and DIFFn-1 is more than or equal to THR, the sensing channel n is open-circuited.
In addition, if the detection values DIFF of the continuous multiple channels are all smaller than the preset threshold, manual detection can be performed on the continuous multiple sensing channels, so as to specifically judge the sensing channel in an open circuit among the continuous multiple sensing channels.
If in step 302, according to the second embodiment, only one sensing channel is included in the two sets of sensing channels or any one sensing channel is included in only one set of sensing channels; at this time, performing mutual capacitance detection on each group of sensing channels, taking coding on the previous sensing channel in each group of sensing channels and sampling the next sensing channel, taking the second sampling data of the next sensing channel as an example, obtaining second sampling data of the next sensing channel in each group of sensing channels, obtaining a second sampling value and a first sampling value of the next sensing channel in each group of sensing channels, calculating a detection value of the next sensing channel in each group of sensing channels, and when the detection value is greater than a preset threshold value corresponding to the group of sensing channels, determining that neither sensing channel in the group of sensing channels is open-circuited; when the detection value is smaller than a preset threshold value corresponding to the group where the detection value is located, judging that at least one induction channel in the group of induction channels has an open circuit phenomenon; and then, which sensing channel has the open circuit phenomenon or two sensing channels have the open circuit phenomenon can be determined in a manual detection mode. That is, in such a grouping manner, the sensing channels in which the open circuit phenomenon may occur can be determined relatively quickly in a small range.
Compared with the first embodiment, the present embodiment provides a specific method for determining whether an open circuit exists in the sensing module. It should be noted that this embodiment may also be used as a refinement on the basis of the first embodiment, and in step 302, two non-adjacent sensing channels may also be used as a group, so that the same technical effect may be achieved.

Step 404, the touch chip detects the second single-sided module according to the detection method of the sensing module in any one of the first to third embodiments, and obtains a detection result of whether the second single-sided module has an open circuit.
Step 405, if the detection result of the second single-sided module is that there is no open circuit, pressing the first single-sided module and the second single-sided module together to form the touch screen with the double-layer structure.
Specifically, if the detection result of the second single-sided module is that no open circuit phenomenon exists, the second single-sided module is a good product and can be used for manufacturing a double-layer touch screen; then, the first single-sided module without the open circuit phenomenon and the second single-sided module without the open circuit phenomenon are pressed together, and the TX channel and the RX channel on the two single-sided modules after pressing are perpendicular to each other to form a double-layer structure touch screen, which is shown in fig. 1. If the second single-sided module has an open circuit, the second single-sided module is detached, another single-sided module is provided again, the newly provided single-sided module is connected with the touch chip, and the detection is performed in step 404 until a single-sided module without an open circuit is obtained.

It should be noted that this embodiment can also be a refinement on the basis of the sixth embodiment, and the same technical effects can be achieved.
The eighth embodiment of the present application relates to a touch screen with a double-layer structure, which includes the touch chip of any one of the fourth to seventh embodiments, and two single-sided modules respectively connected to the touch chip and pressed together.
In this embodiment, the two single-sided modules pressed together are single-sided modules that are not open-circuited by the detection method of the sensing module in any one of the first to third embodiments.
Compared with the prior art, the method includes the steps that firstly, all induction channels in the induction module are controlled to be in a suspended state, and suspended sampling is conducted on the induction channels respectively to obtain first sampling data of the induction channels; then, two induction channels are used as a group, and mutual capacitance detection is respectively carried out on each group of induction channels, so that second sampling data of each induction channel with the second sampling data are obtained; and finally, obtaining a detection result of whether the induction module has an open circuit phenomenon or not according to the difference data of the second sampling data and the first sampling data of each induction channel. Namely, the induction module is detected based on the mutual capacitance detection principle, so that the detection cost is low, and the detection is simple and feasible; meanwhile, the method can be applied to detection of the single induction module in the double-layer structure touch screen, so that the single induction module with an open circuit phenomenon is removed in time before the double-layer structure touch screen is assembled, and subsequent loss is reduced.
It will be understood by those of ordinary skill in the art that the foregoing embodiments are specific examples for carrying out the present application, and that various changes in form and details may be made therein without departing from the spirit and scope of the present application in practice.
