Description
The present invention relates to a hovering object detection method, a hovering object detection apparatus using the same, a switching matrix and a compensation capacitance determination method.
Currently, sensing methods used in touch screens are mainly composed of resistive film type, surface ultrasonic type, and capacitance type. In case of capacitive type, multi-touch detection is possible and durability and visibility are excellent. And is adopted as an input means.
The capacitive touch screen recognizes the user input by sensing the change in the amount of charge charged on the capacitive sensors on the touch screen panel due to user intervention, and recognizes the user input by self-capacitive type according to the charge storage method. And mutual-capacitive. The self-capacitance scheme forms one conductor per capacitive sensor to form a reference ground and a charge plane outside the touch screen panel, while the mutual capacitive scheme forms two reference electrodes on the touch screen panel Of the electric conductors form a charging surface to function as one charging sensor.
In general, the self-capacitance type uses an X / Y orthogonal arrangement of conductors. In this case, each power sensor functions as a line sensor. Therefore, when sensing each touch screen, an X- Detection information and Y-sense information from only one Y-line sensor group and one Y-line sensor group, respectively. Thus, a typical self-capacitance touchscreen can detect and track a single touch but not multiple touches. The reciprocal capacitance method uses the X / Y orthogonal arrangement of conductors, but each charging sensor is configured in the form of a grid sensor at each orthogonal position of the conductor. When the user input on the touch screen is detected, The point that is detected independently is different from the self-capacitance method. Each lattice sensor corresponds to a different X / Y coordinate and provides independent reaction results. Therefore, in the mutual storage type touch screen, the user inputs from the X / Y-sense information set provided from the X / Information can be extracted and the multi-touch of the user can be detected and tracked.
Typical mutual capacitance touchscreen panel conductor configurations and sensing methods are as follows. The first electrodes composed of a conductor extending in one direction and the second electrodes composed of a conductor extending in a direction perpendicular to the first electrodes are connected to each other through a dielectric material between the two electrodes, to form a mutual-capacitive sensor. The capacitance C of this sensor is defined as the distance d between two electrodes, the area a of the charge surface, and the dielectric constant ε of all the dielectric materials present between the charge surfaces, C = ε × a / d, the charge Q accumulated in the sensor, and the voltage V and Q = CV applied to the two electrodes / the charge surface. When the user approaches the sensor, interference occurs in the electric field formed between the two electrodes, which prevents the charge from accumulating in the sensor. As a result, the amount of charge stored in the sensor is reduced, resulting in a decrease in capacitance. It can be understood that the capacitance changes due to the change of the equivalent dielectric constant between the charged surfaces due to the user's approach. However, the fact that a portion of the electric field between the charged surfaces is shunted by the user approach, Phenomenon. When an AC voltage source is connected to the first electrode and an AC waveform is applied to one charging surface of the sensor, a charge amount variation (Q) corresponding to DELTA Q = C DELTA Q is generated with respect to C variable depending on the access degree of the user, A read-out circuit (read-out circuit) connected to the second electrode converts the current or voltage. The converted information is generally used for a coordinate tracking algorithm and a gesture recognition algorithm through signal processing steps such as noise filtering, demodulation, digital conversion, and accumulation.
Prior art patents relating to the construction of the touch screen panel and the configuration of the electrodes are U.S. Patent No. 7,920,129.
The conventional touch detection apparatus developed to detect multi-touch from a single touch, but stopped detecting objects touching the surface of the apparatus. To overcome these limitations, the touch detection device has advanced to detecting objects hovering on the device surface without touching the device surface.
The reciprocal capacitance method is a method in which an object touches and absorbs an electric field in which an object is formed on a driving electrode and a sensing electrode, and detects a change thereon. Therefore, it is difficult to detect objects floating in the touch sensing device surface without touching the surface of the touch sensing device by electrostatic capacitive sensing.
A method of detecting a hovering object is preferably a self capacitance method of detecting a capacitance formed between one electrode of a touch panel and an object hovering. However, the change in the capacitance formed between the driving electrode and the moving object as the hovering object moves is several tens to several hundreds of fF, which is 1/10 to 1/100 of the capacitance difference to be detected in the mutual capacitance method. Furthermore, as the touch panel is becoming smaller and thinner, the parasitic capacitance between the electrode and the ground and the parasitic capacitance between the electrode and the electrode, as well as the electrical resistance of the electrode, are several hundreds to several tens of times greater than the capacitance value formed by the hovering object. Therefore, according to the related art, it is difficult to overcome the influence of the parasitic capacitance and to detect the object hovering.

In this specification, an object to which a user can apply an input to a touch panel is defined as an " object ". Such an object refers to an object capable of touching or hovering the
Referring to FIG. 1, the
(C: capacitance, A: area of electrode, d: distance between electrodes)
Referring to Equation (1) for calculating the capacitance of the capacitor, the capacitance of the mutual capacitors decreases as the distance d between the object hobbering electrode and the electrode increases, and as the distance d decreases, The capacitance of the capacitor increases. Assuming an object having a diameter of about 10 mm and having a capacitance of about several fF of 10 fF or less when the distance between the electrode and the object is 1 cm or more, the conventional hovering object detection method and detection device has hundreds it is not easy to detect the mutual capacitance beyond the influence of the parasitic capacitor of about pF.
In the
In the self-capacitor Cs, the electrode of the touch panel forms one electrode of the capacitor, and the object forms another electrode of the capacitor.

In one example, the second supply voltage Vdd2 provided to the amplifier is 2V, the first supply voltage Vddl is 9V, and the self-capacitor is negligible compared to Cp + Cs, which is the sum of the capacitance of the parasitic capacitor and the compensation capacitor Therefore, the above equation can be approximated as the right side.
The capacitance of the compensating capacitor should be 800 pF in order to form the parasitic capacitance (Cp) to 100 pF and Vn to 1 V, which is half of the wp2 supply voltage. However, a capacitance of 800 pF is a large capacitance value to be formed inside the chip, and it is uneconomical to form a capacitor having such a capacitance inside the chip.

In Equation (3) in Equation (3), the self-capacitor is negligibly smaller than Cp + Cs, which is the sum of the capacitance of the parasitic capacitor and the compensation capacitor, so that the above equation can be approximated as shown in Equation (2) below. A capacitor having a capacitance of 80 pF is required when the parasitic capacitance Cp, which is the same condition as in the first charge sharing phase, is 100 pF and Vn is to be 1 V which is half of the second supply voltage Vdd2 , Which is not a problem in forming inside the chip. In one embodiment, the capacitance of the compensation capacitor may be adjusted as described above to adjust the output voltage Vn of the
According to another embodiment, when the capacitance Cc of the compensation capacitor is matched with the parasitic capacitance in Equation (3), the influence of the parasitic capacitance Cp in the molecule can be canceled and the influence of the parasitic capacitance can be reduced. Therefore, the influence of the parasitic capacitance Cp at the output voltage Vn can be reduced and the influence by the self-capacitance formed by the hovering object O can be increased.
In the output phase P4, the
In one embodiment, the
Hereinafter, a case where the compensation capacitance is determined will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 7A is a circuit diagram schematically showing a capacitance array used in the compensation capacitance determination apparatus according to the present embodiment, and FIG. 7B is a diagram showing a simulation result of the compensation capacitance determination apparatus.
Referring to FIG. 7A, the compensation capacitance determination apparatus according to the present embodiment includes a capacitor array CCa. The capacitor array CCa includes a plurality of capacitors C1, C2, ..., Cn and a plurality of switches SW1, SW2, ..., SWn, and the plurality of switches SW1, ..., and SWn). For example, the
The plurality of capacitors included in the capacitor array CCa may all have the same capacitance value and the number of capacitors connected to the first node n1 and the second node n2 may be controlled to control the capacitance of the capacitor array Cca And determines the equivalent capacitance. In other embodiments, they may have different capacitance values.
The
The capacitor array CCa may be replaced by a compensation capacitor CC, which is illustratively shown in FIG. 1, and the capacitance of the compensation capacitor (see FIG. 1Cc) may be determined by the equivalent capacitance of the capacitor array CCa.
Figure 7 (b) illustrates adjusting the equivalent capacitance value of the capacitor array CCa to determine the capacitance of the compensation capacitor. Referring to FIG. 7 (b), in one embodiment, the
For example, the control unit can determine the output voltage while changing the equivalent capacitance of the capacitor array from maximum to minimum, and in another example, the control unit can grasp the output voltage while changing the equivalent capacitance of the capacitor array from maximum to minimum. In the embodiment shown in Fig. 7 (b), the target output voltage range is 1.8V, which is the second supply potential Vdd2 provided to the detection circuit section, and 0.9V, which is an intermediate level of the ground potential.
When the output voltage reaches a desired range (blue ellipse, Compenstation point) as the
The hovering object detecting apparatus may be fixedly disposed in any one place, but may be changed in position such as a mobile phone, a tablet, or a notebook computer. The parasitic capacitance Cp can be increased or decreased by changing the temperature, humidity and the like of the surroundings even when the position is fixed as well as when the position is fixed. So that the detection performance for the hovering object can be reduced by changing the parasitic capacitance value. However, according to the present embodiment, there is provided an advantage that the detection performance of the hovering object can be improved by actively coping with the parasitic capacitance varying according to the environment and the position of the hovering object detecting apparatus.
In addition, the hovering object detecting apparatus according to the present embodiment can increase the influence of the self-capacitor formed between the electrode and the hovering object by providing a compensation capacitor for compensating the parasitic capacitance of the touch panel. This provides the advantage of being able to detect hovering objects with higher sensitivity and precision.
