Background
Mutual capacitance (Mutual Capacitance) is a type of capacitance that is commonly used to describe the capacitive relationship between two or more conductors, and involves the interaction of an electric field between two or more conductors that creates an electric field when a charge changes on one conductor that can affect other conductors in the vicinity, resulting in a change in the distribution of charge on them. Mutual capacitance is widely used in capacitive touch screens.

During detection, the mutual capacitance transmitting end TX outputs a sine wave with the amplitude of A, the sine wave sequentially passes through the mutual capacitance Cm and the mutual capacitance receiving end RX and then is input into the operational amplifier A1, and then the operational amplifier A1 amplifies the sine wave and then converts the amplified sine wave into digital quantity through the analog-to-digital converter U1 for analysis by a subsequent processing circuit.
When a touch signal exists on the capacitive touch screen, the capacitance value of the mutual capacitance Cm is reduced, and at the moment, the voltage signal at the output end of the operational amplifier A1 is also changed, and the voltage change amount is in proportional relation with the capacitance change amount.
By adopting the scheme, when the capacitance value of the mutual capacitance Cm is larger, the operational amplifier A1 is easy to saturate, so that the detection range is reduced, and the detection precision is reduced.

Referring to fig. 2, in some embodiments, the present application provides a mutual capacitance detection circuit, including: the system comprises a signal transmitting end, a signal receiving end, a counteracting module and a signal amplifying module.
The mutual capacitance to be measured is connected in series between the signal transmitting end and the signal receiving end. The signal transmitting end is used for transmitting a detection signal to the mutual capacitance to be detected; the signal receiving end is used for receiving the detection signal after passing through the mutual capacitance to be detected and transmitting the detection signal to the signal amplifying module. The signal amplifying module is used for amplifying the detection signal which is subjected to the mutual capacitance to be detected and is used for subsequent analysis. It should be understood that if the capacitance value of the mutual capacitance to be measured changes due to the presence of the touch signal, the detection signal sent by the signal sending end will carry the information of the capacitance value change after passing through the mutual capacitance to be measured.
Referring to fig. 1, in general, the detection signal is a sine wave, and the signal transmitting terminal TX outputs a sine wave Asin (2pi ft) with an amplitude a, where f represents the frequency of the sine wave, and t represents the time of the sine wave. The sine wave is amplified into a sine wave with the amplitude of ACm/Cf after sequentially passing through a capacitor Cm to be detected, a signal receiving end RX and an operational amplifier A1, and the expression is as follows:
When a touch signal exists on the capacitive touch screen, the capacitance value of the mutual capacitance Cm is reduced to be Cm- Δcm, and then the output voltage expression of the operational amplifier A1 is as follows:
Wherein, the signal quantity caused by the capacitance value change of the mutual capacitance Cm is as follows:
Therefore, the output voltage of the operational amplifier A1 is related to the capacitance of the mutual capacitance to be measured, and if the capacitance of the mutual capacitance to be measured is large, the operational amplifier A1 easily enters a saturated state. Based on the above, the application introduces the offset module between the signal receiving end and the signal amplifying module on the basis of fig. 1, and the offset module is used for offset the influence of the mutual capacitance to be detected on the signal amplifying module when detecting the mutual capacitance, so that the problems of smaller mutual capacitance detection range and low detection precision caused by the saturation of the signal amplifying module are avoided.
With continued reference to fig. 2, specifically, the cancellation module includes a cancellation capacitor, a first switching unit, and a switching signal generating unit.
And one end of the counteracting capacitor is respectively connected with the signal receiving end and the input end of the signal amplifying module, and the other end of the counteracting capacitor is connected with the first switch unit.

By adopting the scheme, the connection state of the counteracting capacitor Cc can be grounded or the first voltage; meanwhile, the feedback form of the feedback loop can be adjusted by controlling the on-off of the third switch K3, so that the output of the signal amplifying module is adjusted.

Specifically, the feedback mode of the feedback loop is adjusted by controlling the third switch K3 to be turned on or off, so that the inverting input terminal and the output terminal of the signal amplifying module are directly connected, or the inverting input terminal and the output terminal are connected through the feedback capacitor Cf. Specifically, when the third switch K3 is turned on, the inverting input terminal and the output terminal of the operational amplifier A1 are shorted, and at this time, the output voltage of the operational amplifier A1 follows the voltage of the inverting input terminal.

It should be noted that, the input clock signal is usually a periodic electrical signal, which may be a square wave or a sine wave, and the reverse control of the first switch K1 and the second switch K2 may be implemented by connecting an inverter before the first switch K1 or the second switch K2.
