Description of the Invention: [Technical Field] The present invention relates to a panel, and more particularly to a panel device incorporating a proximity sensing unit. [Prior Art] With the development of optoelectronic technology, the proximity switching device has been widely used in different machines, such as: smart phones, transportation ticket purchasing systems, digital cameras, remote controls, LCD screens, etc. . Common Proximity Devices include, for example, a proximity sensor and a touch panel, and are mainly used to switch system states. The proximity sensor operates in the sense that when an object approaches the sensing range of the sensor, the proximity sensor detects the location of the object by proximity sensing when the object is touched or not touched. The proximity sensor converts the induced signal into an electronic signal, and the system or machine responds appropriately according to the electronic signal to achieve the purpose of controlling the state of the system. Proximity sensors, also known as Proximity switches, are used in many LCD TVs, power switches, home appliance switches, access control systems, handheld remote controls and mobile phones. In recent years, these devices and devices are indispensable. One of the roles. It is responsible for detecting the proximity of an object so that the controller knows where the current object is. In the case of home appliance applications, the proximity sensor is used in a large number of sources to control the light source. As long as it is close to the proximity sensor or touches the proximity sensor, the light source can be turned on or off according to the sensing signal source. The types and appearances of proximity sensors are numerous, such as rectangular, square, cylindrical, round, groove, and multi-point. According to its principle, it can be divided into the following four types: inductive, capacitive, photoelectric and magnetic. Please refer to FIG. 1 , which is a panel device 1 〇 () function block 201206279 diagram of a general integrated proximity sensing unit, which includes an object 10 , a proximity sensing unit 101 , a sensing circuit 105 and a microcontroller 1 〇 6 物 物 物 物 物When the proximity sensing unit 101 is close to the sensing unit 101, the capacitance induced by the proximity sensing unit 1〇1 varies with the distance of the object. At this time, the magnitude of the oscillation frequency/amplitude generated by the oscillator 1〇2 depends on the object. The distance changes and produces an oscillating signal. The detection circuit 1〇3 converts the oscillation signal to a fixed DC voltage and transmits it to the output circuit 1〇4, and the output circuit 1〇4 receives the fixed DC voltage and enhances the driving force as an output signal, and transmits it to the microcontroller 1〇6.
