Description of the Invention: [Technical Field] The present invention relates to an electronic device having a touch function electronic device, a butterfly control wheel function, and a key input function. 1 Regulations [Previous Skills] _ In recent years, due to the rapid development of wireless networks and the electronics industry, portable electronic devices with both transmission and small size have been widely used in various fields to meet market demand, for example, personal digital Assistant or mobile phone. In order to balance the portability and functionality of the portable electronic device, the small-sized touch panel gradually replaces the traditional input devices such as a keyboard, a mouse, a trackball, and a track point because of the simple money saving of the electronic device itself. Such products have become the focus of research in all fields. With the in-depth development of touch technology, portable electronic devices can have more functions and are easier to operate and more intuitive to use. For example, 'multi-touch technology allows the touch panel to make more complex input commands, and the user can achieve these input commands without having to memorize more input methods. On the other hand, the touch panel can also be used as a measure of contact external force and mobility. However, although touch technology brings a lot of convenience to users, there are still some problems. For example, when a user dials using a touch panel, it is often the case that a false touch or a bad feeling occurs. The touch panel is not like the conventional button-type structure, and has a pressing feel. Therefore, some messengers are not used to pressing the touch panel. In order to improve the above-mentioned problem of 201028897 and to provide the user with a feeling of press-pressing, the existing method is different - an appropriate position near the touch panel, and the increase is more - the button area = for the user to press. Although the method of setting the button area can solve the problem of pressing and touching, but also causes the appearance of the portable electronic device in the appearance of the portable electronic device, the appearance of the portable electronic device is one of the factors that the user considers to buy. If there is a seam in the appearance, it will reduce the competition purchased by the user and affect the profit of the enterprise. ",

The decision unit 39 is electrically connected to the sensing element 47 and the flexible circuit board 38. 201028897 For example, when the user applies an external force to push and press its function _ 313A via the second area 3112, the _ element π will be touched by the oblique force, and then a touch signal T1 is rotated and output to the judgment unit. 39. Its _, the touch signal T1 has a coordinate position touched by an external force. Then, the protruding portion 331 is pushed by an external force, and the metal dome 381 disposed on the flexible circuit board 38 is pushed again to contact the contact contact on the corresponding flexible circuit board 38, and further When the signal T2 is pressed, the pressing signal T2 is output to the judging unit 39. In particular, during the pressing process by the user to apply an external force, the projection 331 of the button module 33 provides a feeling of pressing, allowing the user to feel the feeling of pressing the button. In addition, when receiving the touch signal T1 from the sensing element 47 and the pressing signal T2 from the flexible circuit board 38, the determining unit 39 compares the touch signal Τ1 and the pressing signal Τ2 with each other. The following will be illustrated. Table 1 Function pattern X coordinate Y coordinate Coordinate error percentage 313A 30 60 —---- 10% 313B 40 80 10% Table 1 is the coordinate position corresponding to the functional pattern. As shown in Table 1, when the user wants to execute the Wei pattern 313, the external force can be applied and the pattern 313 is discarded. At this point, sensing element 47 will be able to sense the position the user has pressed. Here, it is assumed that the coordinates pressed by the maker # are (32, 6 ι). And the 'sensing τ means 47 outputs a touch signal τ judging unit 39 having coordinates (32, 61). & 9 201028897 When the function pattern 313A is pressed by an external force, the button module phantom pushes the metal dome 381 via the projection 331 and contacts the corresponding contact contact, thereby outputting the pressing signal T2. Therefore, after the judging unit 39 receives the pressing signal d, the inspection indicates that the coordinate represented by the pressing signal T2 is (3G, 6G). And judging, the unit 39 will use the coordinate of the pressing signal T2 as a comparison reference, and perform a (four) with the touch. The comparison method is to multiply the coordinate of the pressing signal T2 by the coordinate error percentage to obtain a touch coordinate range. Then, it is judged that the touch fabric T1 is secretly used to determine whether the user is actually pressing the function pattern 313A. For example, in this implementation, the error percentage _ is set to ·, then = the X coordinate system of the touch coordinate range is calculated to be between 27 and 33, and the gamma coordinate system of the touch coordinate range can be calculated. Between 54 and 66. Press the seat of the touch signal T1. Marked as (3) state, it is located within the above-mentioned touch coordinates. Therefore, the judgment unit 39 can accurately determine that the user is pressed on the function pattern ^13A. By the above-mentioned simultaneous electronic device 3 for pressing the touch signal T1 and pressing the signal, the electronic device 3 of the present invention can surely confirm that the user really wants to perform the function predetermined by the function pattern 313A. Among them, the coordinate error percentage can be defined by the Langer. If the percentage of no difference is smaller, it means that the user must more accurately adjust the position of the 313A to perform the function scheduled by the power month b pattern 313A. On the other hand, if the percentage of error is larger, it means that the user does not have to touch the position of the function pattern 3i3A • very accurately, and the function predetermined by the function pattern 313A can be executed. According to the prior art, the electronic device with touch function of the present invention has a protective layer extending from the touch layer to the button module, and the electronic device with touch function includes the touch wheel. Function and key input function 201028897 == body molding without any seams. The touch device of the present invention can utilize a sensing element disposed between the protective layer and the button module, and a touch signal. The button module can provide a button for the __ signal and press the job to accurately determine the pressing position of the finger to avoid the user's accidental touch. f, f 2 or more is a detailed description of the specific details, and the scale can be more clearly characterized and spirited, and the present invention is not limited by the preferred embodiment disclosed above. On the contrary, it is intended that the various changes and equivalents are within the scope of the invention as claimed.
