The present invention relates to a capacitive button circuit, in particular to a capacitive touch button circuit.

In general, the most important touch button technology at present can be divided into two types: an electric resistive touch button and a capacitively sensitive button. The electrical resistance type touch button needs to attach a thin touch resistance film to the surface of the equipment. It is known that the durability of the touch resistance film is relatively weak. In contrast, capacitive touch technology eliminates the need for drilling on non-metallic surfaces and is waterproof, anti-pollution, and easy to clean. In addition, there is no hole, so there is no wear of the mechanical switch, and the long life is an advantage. In addition, in the future, more and more electronic products, home appliances, etc. are focusing on product development by introducing capacitive touch-sensitive buttons to all products. Accordingly, many electronic component suppliers who supply components to electronic products and home appliance manufacturers are also expanding their application research on capacitive touch sensitive buttons, and are also releasing specialized chips that work with many capacitive touch sensitive buttons. However, the cost of these chips is relatively high, making them difficult to apply to a series of low-cost circuits. In addition, the current series of touch-sensitive button circuits have a disadvantage in that their radio wave AC defense capability is relatively low and malfunctions are easy to occur.

The present invention discloses a capacitive touch button circuit (Touch switch). The capacitive touch button circuit includes a square wave signal generating circuit, a sinusoidal step-up circuit, and an electrostatic response sampling circuit.

And the signal output part of the electrostatic reaction sampling circuit and the signal input part of the square wave signal generator are connected. The present invention generates a spherical signal through a microcontroller and receives the electrostatic voltage signal of the electrostatic sensitive circuit to the A/D terminal of the microcontroller. The signal passes through the microcontroller to cause large and small changes in the electrostatic signal at both ends of the electrostatic signal. This makes it possible to identify the capacitive touch-sensitive button, and it is possible to manufacture a button with high stability and easy realization at low cost.

This makes it possible to identify the electrostatic-sensitive button, and it is possible to realize a circuit with high stability and easy realization at low cost.

Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in more detail through specific examples with reference to the drawings for the convenience of understanding the present invention.

As shown in Fig. 1, the capacitive touch button circuit includes a square wave signal generating circuit, a sinusoidal step-up circuit, and an electrostatic sensitive sampling circuit. The above-described square wave signal generating circuit output unit and the signal input unit of the sine boosting circuit are connected, and the signal output unit of the sine boosting circuit and the signal input unit of the electrostatic reaction sampling circuit are connected. And it is connected to the signal output part of the electrostatic response sampling circuit and the signal input part of the square wave signal generator.

The sinusoidal boosting circuit includes a transistor Q1, a first resistor R1, a second resistor R2, a third resistor R3, a first capacitor C1, a second capacitor C2, a third capacitor C3, a first diode D1, and an inductor L1.

One terminal of the first register is used as a signal input unit of the sine step-up circuit, the other terminal is connected to the base of the transistor Q1, and the above-described first capacitor C1 and the first register R1 are connected in parallel. In addition, the third resistor R3, the second resistor R2, and the inductor L1 are connected in series in this order, and the other terminal of the inductor L1 is connected to the collector of the transistor. The other terminal of the third register R3 and the power source VCC are connected, and one terminal of the second capacitor C2 is connected between the second resistor R2 and the third register R3. Here, the other terminal is grounded. The positive terminal of the first diode, one terminal of the third capacitor C3, and the emitter terminal of the transistor are connected to each other. The collector of the transistor serves as a signal input part of the sine booster circuit, and the positive terminal of the first diode D1 and the other terminal of the third capacitor C3 are connected to the collector of the transistor Q1.

The above-described electrostatic sensitive sampling circuit includes an electrostatic sensitive button K, a second diode D2, a third diode D3, a fourth register R4, a fifth register R5, and a fourth capacitor C4. The second diode D2 and the anode of D3 of the third diode described above, one terminal of the fourth, resistor R4, and fifth register R5 are connected to the sensitive electrode of the electrostatic sensitive button K. The anode of the second diode D2 and the other end of the fourth register R4 are connected together to become a signal input part of the electrostatic responsive sampling circuit and is connected to the collector of the transistor Q1. The other terminal of the anode fifth register R5 of the third diode D3 and one terminal of the fourth capacitor C4 are connected together to become a signal output part of the electrostatic sensitive sampling circuit and connected to the signal input part of the square wave generator circuit.

The above-described square wave signal generating circuit is configured by a microcontroller, and has a PWM terminal of the output square wave signal as a signal input terminal and is connected to a signal input part of the sine step-up circuit. Use the A/D terminal of the microcontroller as a signal input part and connect it to the signal output part of the capacitive sampling circuit.

The following is a description of an embodiment of the present invention.

First, the output frequency of the PWM terminal of the microcontroller is set to 500 kHz, and the impulse coefficient is made to be a square wave signal of 50%. After the sine step-up circuit is processed, the signal moves to the capacitive sampling circuit, and finally, the 4th sensor C4 of the capacitive sampling circuit and the voltage signal input from both sides are advanced to the A/D port of the microcontroller for processing. When the square wave signal reaches a high level, the circuit expands to the fourth register R4, and due to the fourth register R4, the fifth register R5 has the same electrical parameters, the second diode D2, the third diode D3 also has the same parameters, so that the charging time constant and the electric discharge time constant are the same. Meanwhile, the microcontroller may convert the voltage values of both sides of the fourth capacitor into numerical values through the A/D port, thereby calculating and comparing the magnitude of change in the voltage values of both sides of the fourth capacitor. When a finger touches the electrostatic sensitive button, the electromagnetic field existing in the electrostatic sensitive button changes, and the electric charge of the fourth capacitor also changes, and accordingly, the voltage on both sides of the fourth capacitor C4 changes. In other words, when the amount of voltage change on both sides of the fourth capacitor C4 reaches a certain level of demand, the microcontroller system can recognize whether the electrostatic response button is pressed due to this. Therefore, the amplitude value of the output square wave signal is small due to the limitation of the output start-up capability of the microcontroller, and in order to stabilize the amplitude value of the output square wave signal, the microcontroller receives the output square wave signal boosting process and then powers off again Generates a signal to the inductive sampling circuit. And it avoids the possibility that a button reading error can be formed even if there is no finger touch button.

The present invention can be used in a low-cost and stable capacitive touch button circuit.
