The touch panel η further has a layer sensing layer (not drawn), also connected to the touch sensing circuit 14, for the induced current generated by the side object touches, and then the object _ collision coordinates. Because the capacitive touch panel before the object touches the touch panel That will produce an amount of induction. Therefore, usually in order to prevent The external noise and unnecessary accidental events will be judged by -_(Thresh.丨(1) as the "touch" or not when making the touch coordinates. That is, for non-touch The event, because its coordinates can not be accurately obtained 'and' because of the unreal touch of Lin, the current control panel technology * is handled.
