Background technology
Along with the development of electronics technology, the keyboard of mobile phone, digital camera, handheld device, vehicle-carrying DVD, MP3, instrument etc. or mouse are touched gradually to shield and substitute at present.The product of touch-screen is not very burning hot several years ago, and Along with people's is more and more for the contact of touch screen product, is also approved that speed of development was accelerated gradually in nearly 2 years by more people.Touch-screen is grown up rapidly, has not only evoked fierce more industry competition, has also promoted technological development indirectly, and the mode of operation of its multi-point touch has risen to a new height to the influence power of touch-screen product especially, is also paid close attention to by people gradually.
Touch-screen is mainly formed by touching detection part and touch screen controller, touches detection part and is installed in the indicator screen front, is used to detect user touch location, send touch screen controller after the reception; And the main effect of touch screen controller is to receive touch information from touch point detection device, and converts it to contact coordinate, gives CPU again, and its can receive simultaneously the order that CPU sends and carry out.
According to the principle of work of touch-screen medium with transmission information; Touch-screen can be divided into four kinds; Be respectively resistance-type, capacitor induction type, infrared-type and surface acoustic wave type, current what be widely used is resistive touch screen, and it utilizes pressure sensitive to carry out resistance control; Resistive touch screen is a kind of laminated film of multilayer, and its major part is a resistance film screen that cooperates very much with display surface.Resistance film screen be with one deck glass or duroplasts flat board as basic unit, the surface scribbles layer of transparent oxidized metal (transparent conductive resistance) ITO (tin indium oxide) conductive layer, is stamped the smooth anti-friction plastic layer of one deck outside surface cure process above again; Its inside surface also scribbles one deck ITO coating; Between them, have the transparent isolating points of many tiny (less than 1/1000 inches) to separate insulation to two conductive layers, when the finger touch screen, two conductive layers has just had contact in the position, touch point; Resistance changes; On X and Y both direction, produce signal, send touch screen controller, controller to detect this contact then and calculate (X; Y) position, the mode according to analog mouse operates again.
The ultimate principle of capacitive touch screen is to utilize the induction by current of human body to carry out work, and capacitive touch screen is two layers of compound glass screen, and the inside surface interlayer of glass screen scribbles ITO (tin indium oxide) conducting film (plated film electro-conductive glass); Outermost layer is a skim silicon soil glassivation, and the ITO coating is drawn four electrodes as workplace on four angles; When finger touch was on screen, because people's bulk electric field, user and touch screen surface formed a coupling capacitance; For high-frequency current, electric capacity is direct conductor, so finger siphons away a very little electric current from contact point; This electric current flows out the electrode from four jiaos of touch-screen respectively; And the electric current of these four electrodes of flowing through is directly proportional with the distance of pointing four jiaos, and controller draws touch point position through the accurate Calculation to these four current ratios.
In capacitive touch screen, projection-type capacitive touch screen is that current application is a kind of comparatively widely, has characteristics such as simple in structure, transmittance height.The touch sensible parts of projection-type capacitive touch screen are generally a plurality of column electrodes and the row electrode is staggered to form the induction matrix.Usually the design that adopts comprises the two sides that column electrode and row electrode is separately positioned on same transparency carrier, prevents short circuit to occur at intervening portion; Perhaps column electrode and row electrode are arranged on the homonymy of same transparency carrier; Be formed on the same conducting film (being generally the ITO conducting film); Separate through the mode that insulation course and frame conducting bridge are set at column electrode and the staggered position of row electrode; Column electrode and row electrode are separated and guarantee conducting on direction separately, can prevent effectively that it is in the intervening portion short circuit.
Usually the design proposal that adopts is: one of column electrode or row electrode are provided with on conducting film continuously; Then another electrode electrode with continuous setting on conducting film serves as to be arranged to some electrode blocks at interval; Position at cross-point is electrically connected adjacent electrode block through conducting bridge, thereby forms the continuous electrode on the other direction; Separate by insulation course between the electrode of conducting bridge and setting continuously, thereby effectively stop column electrode and row electrode in the cross-point short circuit.Usually the design proposal that adopts is: (1) stepped construction is followed successively by transparency carrier, first direction electrode, insulation course, conducting bridge; Perhaps (2) stepped construction is followed successively by transparency carrier, conducting bridge, insulation course, first direction electrode.
But can there be the defective of the not high and poor work stability of transmittance in the capacitive touch screen that adopts traditional design proposal; The capacitive touch screen transmittance of traditional design proposal is difficult to break through 80%; And during whole stressed flexural deformation; Occur at the interface easily separating, cause electrode to open circuit and touch inefficacy, touch sensible parts damages.
