In actual operation, when the touch information is received by the touch pad and the pressing force value exceeds the pressing action triggering threshold, the pressing action is identified. The mathematical expression is as follows:
wherein button_state is a key state, button_state=1 indicates that the key is pressed; button_state=0 indicates that the key is released; f is the actual detected pressing force value; f (F) TH The force threshold is triggered for a pressing action. When the pressing force value in the current sampling period is lower than the triggering threshold value, the pressing action is finished, and meanwhile, the accumulated values of all channel sensor signals are cleared; of course, in actual practice, a plurality of pressing actions may be providedTrigger force threshold, F TH1 、F TH2 、F TH3 Up to F THn Thus, by comparing the button_state with the pressing action triggering force threshold value, the region to which the current pressing action belongs can be confirmed, and the multi-stage judgment of the pressing force is realized; in actual operation, a plurality of force levels are adopted specifically, the specific limit value of each force level is not limited in the invention, and the person skilled in the art can select and set the force level according to actual needs.

In this way, the error is further reduced mainly by detecting the pressing position when pressing occurs, wherein the pressing position can be obtained through the detection of the existing touch screen, and can also be obtained by utilizing the pressing signal detected by the piezoelectric sensor, and the invention is not described in detail herein.

Specifically, in actual operation, after the computing unit computes and obtains the touch pressure energy value, the touch pressure energy value may be compared with one or more preset thresholds to determine whether the current touch pressure meets a preset standard, for example; when intelligent equipment such as a tablet computer and a mobile phone is started by adopting pressure control, only the touch pressure is required to meet a threshold value, and the touch pressure energy value is compared with the preset threshold value at the moment, if the touch pressure energy value is larger than the preset threshold value, the starting operation can be started; if multi-stage pressure operation of the device is required, for example, a photo is started in a large-pressing-force state, music is started in a medium-stage pressure state, a screen is started in a small-pressure state, and the like, the touch pressure energy value can be respectively compared with a plurality of preset thresholds, so that a final control scheme, namely touch pressure information, is obtained; of course, as mentioned above, the problem of the difference in the structure of the touch pad and the difference in the installation manner on different electronic devices may be that one or more preset thresholds are set for different positions in actual operation, and then the one or more steps of force comparison are performed after the corresponding preset thresholds are obtained through the touch positions; of course, in actual working, due to different application scenarios and requirements, a person skilled in the art can freely select the combination of the above embodiments according to actual requirements, and the present invention is not limited in this way.
