Detailed Description
The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
A touch screen of an electronic device is usually provided with two layers of channels, namely, an RX channel and a TX channel, respectively, for touch detection. Touch detection generally includes two ways, self capacitance detection and mutual capacitance detection. Specifically, during the self-capacitance detection, the touch chip scans the change of the self-capacitance of each of the horizontal and vertical channels to ground. When a finger is close to or touching, the self-capacitance of the channel near the finger becomes large. When mutual capacitance detection is performed, one layer of channels serves as driving channels (for example, TX channels) and the other layer of channels serves as sensing channels (for example, RX channels), and the touch chip detects the change of mutual capacitance between the TX channels and the RX channels.
When touch detection is performed, if a finger is close to the touch screen or touches the touch screen, the finger and a transverse channel RX nearby the finger will generate a capacitance Cs, and the finger and a longitudinal channel TX nearby the finger will generate a capacitance Cd. Because the human body is a conductor and is connected with the ground, the self capacitance and the mutual capacitance of the channel touched or approached by the finger can be changed, and the touch position of the finger can be calculated by the touch chip according to the detected change of the self capacitance or the mutual capacitance.
Fig. 1 is a schematic diagram illustrating a conventional multi-channel touch detection system, and as shown in fig. 1, a self-capacitance or mutual capacitance detection process can determine whether each RX channel is touched by detecting an output signal of the RX channel. In particular, the multi-channel touch detection system may include a driving circuit (not shown) for generating a driving signal, which may also be referred to as a code signalTo be input to the TX channel in the touch pad. The multi-channel touch detection system may further include a capacitance detection Circuit, for example, the capacitance detection Circuit may include a Charge Amplifier (CA) and a Programmable Gain Amplifier (PGA), and for example, an Analog anti-aliasing Filter (AAF) and an Analog-to-Digital Conversion Circuit (ADC) having a low-pass characteristic. The PGA circuit may be configured to receive signals transmitted from RX channels of the touch pad, amplify the signals, and output a signal CH1To CHn(ii) a In addition, the AAF circuit can be connected with the PGA circuit and is used for filtering interference signals carried in the received electric signals; the ADC circuit may be connected to the AAF circuit for converting the analog signal into a digital signal, which may be used for touch detection.
However, with the wide application of Organic Light-Emitting Diode (OLED) screens, the difficulty of the conventional detection scheme is increasing. As shown in fig. 1, due to the large capacitance (Cg1-Cgn) of the display panel of the OLED panel, the display noise (display noise) of the touch screen, which is coupled from the cathode to the input end of the RX channel in the bright screen condition, is even larger than the RX channel signal, which greatly limits the signal-to-noise ratio of the touch detection system.
In solving the problem of screen noise interference, an improved touch detection system may be adopted, for example, fig. 2 shows a schematic diagram of any one channel in an improved touch detection system. It has been found through testing that the magnitude of the display noise is periodically related to the display refresh of the screen, and therefore, the system shown in fig. 2 takes advantage of the temporal characteristics of the screen noise. Fig. 3 is a schematic diagram showing periodic variations of different signals, in which a synchronous (Hsync) signal in fig. 3 represents an indication signal of display refresh of a touch panel, and display noise has a large amplitude near a high level of the Hsync signal and a small amplitude in the remaining periods, so that isolation control of an RX input terminal can be performed using the Hsync signal. Specifically, as shown in fig. 2 and fig. 3, a switch S1 is added to the RX input terminal, and when Hsync signal is high, S1 is turned off to disconnect the Analog Front End (AFE) from RX, so that the display noise with large amplitude does not enter the AFE part; when the level of the Hsync signal is pulled low, the control switch S1 is still turned off for a while, and then the switch S1 is turned on, so that when the switch is connected to RX, the display noise is small in amplitude. The improvement scheme can indeed optimize the signal-to-noise ratio of the touch detection system, but two problems exist in the scheme, firstly, an Hsync signal is required to be used, and a main control component of a touch screen of the electronic equipment is required to output the Hsync signal to a touch detection chip, so that the complexity of the system is increased; secondly, the refresh rate of touch detection is limited by the screen refresh rate, and the requirement of detecting the refresh rate at will cannot be met.
Therefore, the embodiment of the present application provides a method for detecting touch of multiple channels in a touch screen, which can solve the above problem based on similarity of display noise.
Fig. 4 shows a schematic flowchart of a method 100 for multi-channel touch detection in a touch screen according to an embodiment of the present application, and fig. 5 shows a multi-channel touch detection system according to an embodiment of the present application. It should be understood that all or part of the steps included in the method 100 of the embodiment of the present application may be performed by an apparatus for multiple channel touch detection in a touch screen. For example, the apparatus may include a processing unit for performing the method 100; for another example, the apparatus may include a processor, and the processor may call and execute a computer program from a memory to implement the method 100 in the embodiment of the present application, where the memory may be a separate device from the processor or may be integrated into the processor.
As shown in fig. 5, the method may be applied to the touch detection system shown in fig. 5, and in particular, may be executed by the apparatus 200 in the system, for example, the touch detection system may include a touch chip including the apparatus 200. In particular, the apparatus 200 may comprise a processor or a processing unit to perform the method 100. In addition, as shown in fig. 5, the digital signals output from the ADCs of the channels are demodulated, and the output in-phase/quadrature (I/Q) demodulated data is input to the apparatus 200 to perform the method 100.
Optionally, as shown in fig. 4, the method 100 may include: s110, obtaining a display noise coefficient of each channel in the plurality of channels, wherein the display noise coefficient of each channel represents a ratio of a display noise signal of each channel relative to a reference display noise signal. Specifically, taking the example of determining the display noise coefficient of the target channel, where the target channel is any one of the multiple channels, the S110 may specifically include: when the touch screen is not touched, determining a display noise coefficient of a target channel in a plurality of channels according to a plurality of frames of display images, wherein the display noise coefficient of the target channel represents a ratio of a display noise signal of the target channel to a reference display noise signal, and the display noise signal in the embodiment of the application is generated when the touch screen is in a bright screen state.
Specifically, the method 100 of the embodiment of the present application is mainly based on the similarity of display noise, and fig. 6 shows a simplified model diagram of the embodiment of the present application in which the display noise is coupled to the RX end, as shown in fig. 6, the display noise is approximately regarded as common mode noise in the embodiment of the present application, but because the trace resistance and the coupling capacitance of the cathode to different positions of the touch screen are different, the amplitude and the phase of the display pixel coupled to each RX end are different, so the output signal of the system shown in fig. 1 or fig. 5 can be expressed as the following formula (1):
Figure BDA0002974649820000061
in the embodiment of the present application, a plurality of channels are described as n channels, where n is a positive integer greater than 1; CH (CH)1To CHnRepresenting the output signal of each channel, S1To SnRepresenting signal components in the respective channels other than various noise signals, N1To NnRepresenting random noise of individual channels, e.g. N1Random noise representing the first channel, the random noise being mainly caused by the AFE itself; n is a radical ofcDisplaying the amount of noise, k, for the source1To k isnFor the scale factor of display noise coupled to the respective channel, e.g. k1Indicating the display noise figure, or k, of the first channel1Represents a ratio of the display noise signal of the first channel with respect to the reference display noise signal, and k1To k isnIs a vector, k1To k isnIndicating that the amplitude and phase of the display noise coupled to different RX channels are different. For example, with the display noise figure k of the first channel1For example, if the amplitude of the display noise signal of the first channel is half of the amplitude of the reference display noise signal and the phase of the display noise signal of the first channel differs from the phase of the reference display noise signal by 30 °, then the display noise figure k of the first channel is determined to be the same as the display noise figure k of the first channel1Can be expressed as 0.5 × e ^ (j30 °).
Therefore, according to this formula (1), the display noise coefficients k of a plurality of channels can be determined1To k isn. Specifically, S110 in the method 100 may specifically include: when the touch screen is not touched and the touch screen is in a screen resting state, determining a basic output signal of each channel in the channels according to the output signal of each channel in the channels; when the touch screen is not touched and is in a bright screen state, determining a sampling output signal of each channel corresponding to each frame of display image in the multi-frame display image; determining a display noise figure for each channel based on a difference between the sampled output signal for each channel and the base output signal for each channel.
It should be understood that when the touch screen is not touched and the touch screen is in the touch screen resting state, it can be considered that no noise is displayed in the touch detection system, i.e. N in formula (1)cThe touch screen display state is zero, wherein no image is displayed when the touch screen is in the screen resting state; also, taking a target channel of the plurality of channels as an example, an average value of the plurality of output signals of the target channel is measured, and the average value may be determined as a base output signal of the target channel, that is, a base output signal of each channel may be obtained, for example, the base output signals of 1 to n channels are respectively represented as CH herein1,b,CH2,b,CH3,b,…,CHn,b
The duration of the preset time can be set according to practical application. For example, the preset time may be set to a longer time, and the amount of random noise may be considered to be not contained therein for the base output signal of each signal obtained within the preset time.
Therefore, in the case that the touch screen is in a bright screen state and each channel is not touched, each channel output signal can be rewritten from formula (1) to the following formula (2):
Figure BDA0002974649820000081
for convenience of calculation, a second reference channel may be determined among the plurality of channels, and the noise coefficient of the second reference channel may be determined as 1, that is, the noise signal of the second reference channel is determined as a reference noise signal, where the second reference channel may be any one of the plurality of channels. For example, in the embodiment of the present application, k is usednThe explanation is given by taking 1 as an example, and N is consideredn<<NcThen, the following formula (3) can be obtained according to the formula (2):
Nc≈CHn-CHn,b (3)
combining the formula (2) and the formula (3), for a target channel in the plurality of channels, if the target channel is expressed as an mth channel, and m can sequentially take any positive integer from 1 to n, the following formula (4) can be obtained:
CHm-CHm,b=km*Nc=km*(CHn-CHn,b) (4)
therefore, according to the formula (4), when the touch screen is not touched and the touch screen is in a bright screen state, the output signal of each RX channel corresponding to multiple frames of images is collected to obtain the sampling output signals CH of the multiple channels corresponding to each frame of display image in the multiple frames of display images1To CHnObtaining multiple sets of sampling output signals CH corresponding to multiple frames of images1To CHn. For example, the multiframe mapThe image may be 200 frames of images in the same environment, but the embodiment of the present application is not limited thereto.
A plurality of channels corresponding to the obtained multi-frame image adopt the output signals CH1To CHnRespectively substituted into the formula (4), and by using least square method, the display noise coefficient k corresponding to each channel can be obtained1To k isn. Wherein, in the formula (4), CHmSampling output signals of a target channel corresponding to each frame of image; CH (CH)m,bOutputting a signal for a basis of a target channel; CH (CH)nSampling output signals of a second reference channel corresponding to each frame of image; CH (CH)n,bIs the base output signal of the second reference channel, and the reference noise signal is CHn-CHn,b
In the above process, because the number of the collected frames is large, the influence of random noise is negligible. The process of determining the noise factor of each channel can be carried out in the stage of mass production test of the chip, and the test is realized according to the actually carried touch screen and stored in the chip. The display noise coefficient of each channel is only related to the characteristics of the touch screen and basically does not change along with the change of a use picture and use time, so that the display noise coefficient can be used in the subsequent noise removing process.
As shown in fig. 4, the method 100 includes: s120, determining a noise signal of a first reference channel according to output signals of the first reference channel when the touch screen is in a bright screen state and in a screen resting state, wherein the first reference channel is any one of the channels which are not touched.
Specifically, the method 100 may further include: in the channels which are not touched in the plurality of channels, a first reference channel is determined, namely the first reference channel can be any one of the channels which are not touched. For example, the embodiment of the present application takes the first channel of the multiple channels as the first reference channel for example. From equation (2), equation (5) satisfied by the ith channel can be obtained:
CHl=CHl,b+Nl+kl*Nc (5)
according to the above formula (5), the output signal CH of the first reference channel when the touch screen is in the bright state can be obtainedlAnd the basic output signal CH of the first reference channell,bIs determined as the noise signal Δ CH of the first reference channellI.e. the noise signal Δ CH of the first reference channellSatisfies formula (6):
ΔCHl=CHl-CHl,b=Nl+kl*Nc (6)
as shown in fig. 4, the method 100 further includes: s130, determining a noise signal of the target channel according to the display noise coefficient of the target channel and the noise signal of the first reference channel; and S140, removing the noise signal of the target channel from the original output signal of the target channel to obtain the target output signal of the target channel, wherein the target output signal of the target channel is used for touch detection of the target channel, and the original output signal of the target channel is the output signal of the target channel without removing the noise signal when the touch screen is in a bright screen state.
It should be appreciated that the noise signal N of the target channel may be determined according to equation (7) belowm
Nm=km*ΔCHl/kl (7)
Wherein k ismFor the display noise figure, k, of the target channellFor the display noise figure of the first reference channel, Δ CHlIs the noise signal of the first reference channel. Optionally, in this embodiment of the present application, the target channel may be each of the plurality of channels, or the target channel may also be another channel of the plurality of channels except for the first reference channel.
According to the noise signal N of the determined target channelmAt the original output signal CH of the target channelmRemoving the noise signal N of the target channelmThen the target output signal CH of the target channel can be obtainedm,caTarget output signal CH of the target channelm,caThe method can be used for touch detection of the target channel.
From the above equation (6), the following equation (8) can be obtained:
Nc’=(CHl-CHl,b)/kl=Nc+Nl/kl (8)
combining equations (7) and (8), if the target channel determined by the embodiment of the present application is not touched, the target output signal CH of the target channel is determinedm,caThe following formula (9) can be satisfied:
CHm,ca=CHm-km*Nc
=CHm,b+Nm+km*Nc-km*Nc’ (9)
=CHm,b+Nm-km/kl*Nl
as can be seen from equation (9), the target output signal CH of the embodiment of the present application is processed to remove the noise signalm,caIn which only a random noise amount remains, i.e. the target channel noise signal NmAnd a noise signal N of the first reference channell. In the embodiment of the present application, the random noise amount of each channel is taken as an example, and the root mean square value is σ, so that the residual noise is σ × (1+ k)m 2/kl 2)1/2It follows that to minimize the residual noise, the first reference channel in the embodiments of the present application may select the channel displaying the largest noise figure.
For example, in 1 to n channels, if the display noise figure of each channel satisfies | k1|<|k2|<|k3|<…<|kn-1|<|knL, and k n1, then the nth channel may be selected as the first reference channel and the residual noise is σ × (1+ k)m 2)1/2Compared with display noise, the noise is greatly reduced, so that the signal-to-noise ratio of the touch detection system can be obviously improved.
Therefore, according to the method for touch detection of multiple channels in the touch screen, the display noise coefficient of each channel in the multiple channels relative to the reference display noise is respectively determined by utilizing the similarity of the display noise, and the process can be completed in a mass production test stage, so that the multi-channel touch detection chip can flexibly adapt to different carried screens; furthermore, the touch detection chip can perform noise removal operation on I/Q demodulation data obtained by the RX end according to the display noise coefficients of all channels obtained in the mass production test stage, and remove the display noise part in the AFE output signal, so that the signal-to-noise ratio of the touch detection system is greatly improved.
