Description

The Trackpad of single-layer printed circuit board structure
Technical field
The present invention is relevant a kind of Trackpad, particularly about a kind of Trackpad of single-layer printed circuit board structure.
Background technology
Trackpad has been widely used on the electronic product, comprises hand-held computer, personal digital assistant, mobile phone or other electronic system.The touch control panel device person of being to use slides on level and smooth panel or contact with finger or conductive material pointer for example, cursor is produced relatively move, absolute coordinates moves or other extensibility function, emulation keypress function for example, input media.Traditional Trackpad is four layer printed circuit structures, its sectional view as shown in Figure 1, comprise that the line of induction 104 of a directions X is positioned at the ground floor of printed circuit board (PCB) 102, the line of induction 108 of one Y direction is positioned at the second layer of printed circuit board (PCB) 102, one insulation course 106 is between the line of induction 108 of the line of induction 104 of directions X and Y direction, one ground plane 112 is positioned at the 3rd layer of printed circuit board (PCB) 120, one insulation course 110 is between the line of induction 108 and ground plane 112 of Y direction, one part layer 118 is positioned at the 4th layer of printed circuit board (PCB) 102, one insulation course 114 is between ground plane 112 and part layer 118, and one insulated coverings 122 be attached at the top of printed circuit board (PCB) 102, operating area as finger or pointer, wherein, the line of induction 104 of directions X is connected to part layer 118 via perforation 116 and 120 respectively with the line of induction 108 of Y direction.Though the existing ground plane 112 that experimental results show that not is certain needs and be three layer printed circuit structures with four layer printed circuit designs simplifications, yet the Trackpad of this kind structure can't effectively reduce cost.
In order to reduce cost, therefore develop the Trackpad that two layer printed circuit structures, its sectional view as shown in Figure 2, the line of induction 204 that comprises a directions X, as shown in Figure 3A, be positioned at the upper strata of printed circuit board (PCB) 202, the line of induction 208 of one Y direction, shown in Fig. 3 B, with the lower floor that is positioned at printed circuit board (PCB) 202 in its peripheral part district 210, one insulation course 206 is between the line of induction 208 and peripheral component district 210 thereof of the line of induction 204 of directions X and Y direction, and one insulated coverings 214 be attached to the top of printed circuit board (PCB) 202, as the operating area of finger or pointer, wherein, the line of induction 204 of directions X is connected to part district 210 via perforation 212, and 208 of the lines of induction of Y direction need not bored a hole and are connected directly to part district 210.The vertical view of its printed circuit board (PCB) 202 of Trackpad of two layer printed circuit structures as shown in Figure 2 as shown in Figure 4, the line of induction 204 of directions X and the line of induction 208 of Y direction lay respectively at the corresponding zone in upper strata and lower floor of printed circuit board (PCB) 202, and part district 210 then is positioned at the outer peripheral areas of the line of induction 208 of Y direction of the lower floor of printed circuit board (PCB) 202.Fig. 5 is the understructure synoptic diagram of its printed circuit board (PCB) 202 of Trackpad of two layer printed circuit structures shown in Figure 2, the line of induction of directions X is connected to other part 218 via perforation behind 212 controllers 216 that are connected in the part district again, and the line of induction 208 of Y direction is connected to other part 218 after then being connected directly to controller 216 in the part district 210 again.
In order to keep two layer printed circuit structures and traditional four layer printed circuit structures have equal area, so that under the situation that does not change mechanism design, can replace mutually each other to make things convenient for modularization, further develop out two layer printed circuit structures, its sectional view as shown in Figure 6, the line of induction 604 that comprises a directions X and the line of induction 606 of Y direction all are positioned at the upper strata of printed circuit board (PCB) 602, one part layer 616 is positioned at the lower floor of printed circuit board (PCB) 602, one insulation course 608 is between the line of induction 606 and part layer 616 of the line of induction 604 of directions X and Y direction, and one insulated coverings 614 be attached to the top of printed circuit board (PCB) 602, operating area as finger or pointer, because the line of induction 604 and 606 of directions X and Y direction is positioned at the upper strata of printed circuit board (PCB) 602, therefore needing to see through respectively perforation 618 links to each other with the part layer 616 of printed circuit board (PCB) 602 lower floors with 620, and intersect for fear of the line of induction 606 of the line of induction 604 of directions X and Y direction and to cause short circuit, the line of induction 606 of Y direction does not link together, and stamp the line of induction 606 that carbon film lead 612 connects the Y direction with carbon film printing technology (carbon ink), having an insulant 610 this moment between the line of induction 604 of directions X and carbon film lead 612 avoids the two to intersect that to cause short circuit, Fig. 7 be the superstructure synoptic diagram of printed circuit board (PCB) 602 behind the line of induction 606 of carbon film lead 612 connection Y directions.Though the Trackpad cost of two layer printed circuit structures is low than the Trackpad of four layer printed circuit structures, but still can't satisfy the requirement of user to price, and the carbon film lead of printing on two layer printed circuit structures, meeting loss along with use causes shorten the serviceable life of Trackpad.
Therefore, a kind of reduction Trackpad manufacturing cost, and can prolong the Trackpad of the single-layer printed circuit board structure in Trackpad life-span, be to be the institute Ji.
Summary of the invention
One of purpose of the present invention is to propose a kind of Trackpad that reduces the single-layer printed circuit board structure of manufacturing cost.
One of purpose of the present invention, other is to propose a kind of Trackpad that increases the single-layer printed circuit board structure in Trackpad serviceable life.
According to the present invention, a kind of Trackpad of single-layer printed circuit board structure, comprise a printed circuit board (PCB), the part district that has induction zone and be positioned at this induction zone periphery in its lower floor, comprise first and second direction inductor line in this induction zone, this first and second direction inductor line is connected directly to this part district respectively, do not connect in this induction zone this first or the second direction line of induction connect with the carbon film lead.
Trackpad of the present invention uses single-layer printed circuit board structure and omits the step of perforation, reduce manufacturing cost effectively, and induction zone and part district are positioned at same one deck of printed circuit board (PCB), also simplified circuit design, reach best cost benefit, in addition, with operational zone, the upper strata of circuit board as the user, can omit the step that attaches insulated coverings, and the carbon film lead that connects the line of induction can the loss along with use, reaches further minimizing manufacturing cost and prolongs the Trackpad purpose in serviceable life.
