Description

電子裝置與其觸控板操作方法 Electronic device and operation method thereof

本發明是有關於一種電子裝置,且特別是有關於一種具有觸控板的電子裝置以及其觸控板操作方法。 The present invention relates to an electronic device, and more particularly to an electronic device having a touch panel and a method of operating the same.

隨著科技的日新月異,觸控面板已漸漸地取代了傳統的按鍵輸入裝置,越來越多的電子產品皆可透過觸控面板接收操作指令。另一方面,為了提供資訊產品可正常運作的電力或使資訊產品可支援更多層面的應用,電子產品通常可以與其他的外部裝置(週邊元件)連接。例如,手機可以與充電器連接以將手機充電。然而,當具有觸控面板的電子產品與外部裝置(週邊元件)連接時,由於電子產品中用來驅動觸控面板的驅動單元的操作可能受干擾於所述外部裝置(週邊元件)的工作頻率。此時,因為外部裝置(週邊元件)的干擾而導致大量雜訊產生於觸控面板的感測結果,進而影響觸控面板的性能(performance)。 With the rapid development of technology, touch panels have gradually replaced traditional button input devices, and more and more electronic products can receive operational commands through the touch panel. On the other hand, in order to provide power for the information products to function properly or to enable the information products to support a wider range of applications, electronic products can usually be connected to other external devices (peripheral components). For example, the phone can be connected to a charger to charge the phone. However, when an electronic product having a touch panel is connected to an external device (peripheral component), the operation of the driving unit for driving the touch panel in the electronic product may be disturbed by the operating frequency of the external device (peripheral component) . At this time, a large amount of noise is generated by the sensing result of the touch panel due to interference of the external device (peripheral component), thereby affecting the performance of the touch panel.

傳統技術會以高壓方式或跳頻方式來改善觸控面板的性能。傳統跳頻操作是以無關於所連接的外部裝置(週邊元件)的方式,盲目地將觸控面板的掃描頻率由預設工作頻率逐漸往下調降(或往上調升),直到觸控面板的性能至可接受範圍為止。然而,上述傳統之跳頻操作方式需要花費大量的時間在盲目嘗試尋找較佳的掃描頻率上。 The conventional technology improves the performance of the touch panel by high voltage or frequency hopping. The traditional frequency hopping operation blindly lowers the scanning frequency of the touch panel from the preset operating frequency (or upwards) until the touch panel is closed, regardless of the connected external device (peripheral components). Performance is up to the acceptable range. However, the above conventional frequency hopping operation requires a lot of time to blindly try to find a better scanning frequency.

有鑑於此,本發明提供一種電子裝置與其觸控板操作方法,可快速地依據週邊元件而調整驅動單元的工作組態,以改善觸控面板的性能(performance)。 In view of this, the present invention provides an electronic device and a touch panel operating method thereof, which can quickly adjust the working configuration of the driving unit according to peripheral components to improve the performance of the touch panel.

為讓本發明之上述特徵和優點能更明顯易懂,下文特舉實施例,並配合所附圖式作詳細說明如下。 The above described features and advantages of the present invention will be more apparent from the following description.

在本案說明書全文(包括申請專利範圍)中所使用的「耦接」一詞可指任何直接或間接的連接手段。舉例而言,若文中描述第一裝置耦接於第二裝置,則應該被解釋成該第一裝置可以直接連接於該第二裝置,或者該第一裝置可以透過其他裝置或某種連接手段而間接地連接至該第二裝置。 The term "coupled" as used throughout the specification (including the scope of the patent application) may be used in any direct or indirect connection. For example, if the first device is described as being coupled to the second device, it should be construed that the first device can be directly connected to the second device, or the first device can be connected through other devices or some kind of connection means. Connected to the second device indirectly.

圖1為根據本發明之一範例實施例所繪示之電子裝置的功能方塊示意圖。請參照圖1,電子裝置100包括觸控板(touch panel或touch pad)110、驅動單元120、處理單元130以及介面電路160。在本範例實施例中,電子裝置100可以是任何資訊產品,例如手機、個人數位助理(personal digital assistant,PDA)、智慧型手機(smart phone)、電子書、遊戲機、平板電腦或個人電腦等,本發明並不對其限制。 FIG. 1 is a functional block diagram of an electronic device according to an exemplary embodiment of the invention. Referring to FIG. 1 , the electronic device 100 includes a touch panel or a touch pad 110 , a driving unit 120 , a processing unit 130 , and an interface circuit 160 . In the exemplary embodiment, the electronic device 100 can be any information product, such as a mobile phone, a personal digital assistant (PDA), a smart phone, an e-book, a game console, a tablet computer, or a personal computer. The invention is not limited thereto.

觸控板110作為使用者輸入操作指令之用,例如觸控板110可以偵測使用者的輸入指令以使電子裝置100執行對應動作。在本範例實施例中,觸控板110可以是電阻式觸控面板、電容式觸控面板、光學觸控面板、紅外線觸控面板或電磁感應觸控面板等,本發明並不對觸控板110的種類加以限制。 The touch panel 110 is used as a user input operation command. For example, the touch panel 110 can detect an input command of the user to cause the electronic device 100 to perform a corresponding action. In the present exemplary embodiment, the touch panel 110 can be a resistive touch panel, a capacitive touch panel, an optical touch panel, an infrared touch panel, or an electromagnetic induction touch panel. The present invention does not apply to the touch panel 110. The type is limited.

驅動單元120耦接至觸控板110與介面電路160。在本實施例中,驅動單元120可以是面板驅動電路、面板驅動晶片或觸控面板控制器等,本發明並不對其限制。驅動單元120以一工作組態(working configuration)驅動觸控板110,以讀取在觸控板110的觸碰座標。所述工作組態包括掃描頻率、感測門檻值(threshold)或重複確認次數值等。例如,驅動單元120會依據所述工作組態持續地以一特定的掃描頻率(scanning frequency)來掃描/驅動觸控板110,以致於當使用者觸碰到觸控板110時,驅動單元120可以即時地讀取觸控板110上對應於觸碰位置的觸碰信號,並將觸碰信號轉換為觸碰位置有關的資訊,例如觸碰座標。又例如,驅動單元120會依據所述工作組態的感測門檻值來過濾觸控板110的觸碰信號,並將大於感測門檻值的觸碰信號轉換為觸碰座標。 The driving unit 120 is coupled to the touch panel 110 and the interface circuit 160. In this embodiment, the driving unit 120 may be a panel driving circuit, a panel driving chip, or a touch panel controller, etc., and the invention is not limited thereto. The driving unit 120 drives the touch panel 110 in a working configuration to read the touch coordinates on the touch panel 110. The working configuration includes a scanning frequency, a threshold of a sensing threshold, or a value of a repeated acknowledgment number. For example, the driving unit 120 continuously scans/drives the touch panel 110 at a specific scanning frequency according to the working configuration, so that when the user touches the touch panel 110, the driving unit 120 The touch signal corresponding to the touch position on the touch panel 110 can be read instantly, and the touch signal is converted into information related to the touch position, such as a touch coordinate. For another example, the driving unit 120 filters the touch signal of the touch panel 110 according to the sensing threshold value of the working configuration, and converts the touch signal larger than the sensing threshold value into a touch coordinate.

再例如,驅動單元120會依據所述工作組態的重複確認次數值來過濾觸控板110的偽觸碰信號,並將真觸碰信號轉換為觸碰座標。假設「重複確認次數值」為「4次」,當觸控板110的一觸碰位置的觸碰信號大於感測門檻值,驅動單元120會連續4次重複確認同一觸碰位置的觸碰信號是否大於感測門檻值。若連續4次感測同一觸碰位置的觸碰信號均大於感測門檻值,則驅動單元120可以判斷該觸碰位置的觸碰信號應該是實體物件碰觸觸控板110所造成的真觸碰信號,而不是雜訊所造成的偽觸碰信號。因此, 在連續4次重複確認後,驅動單元120可以將觸碰信號轉換為觸碰座標。 For another example, the driving unit 120 filters the pseudo touch signal of the touch panel 110 according to the repeated confirmation times value of the working configuration, and converts the true touch signal into a touch coordinate. Assuming that the "repeated confirmation number value" is "4 times", when the touch signal of a touch position of the touch panel 110 is greater than the sensing threshold value, the driving unit 120 repeatedly confirms the touch signal of the same touch position four times in succession. Is it greater than the sensing threshold? If the touch signal of the same touch position is greater than the sense threshold value, the driving unit 120 can determine that the touch signal of the touch position should be the true touch caused by the physical object touching the touch panel 110. Touch the signal, not the pseudo-touch signal caused by the noise. therefore, After repeating the confirmation four times in succession, the driving unit 120 can convert the touch signal into a touch coordinate.

處理單元130耦接至驅動單元120與介面電路160。在本範例實施例中,處理單元130可以是中央處理單元(central processing unit)、鍵盤控制器、微控制器(micro-controller)或控制晶片組(control chipset)等,本發明並不對其限制。驅動單元120將觸控板110的觸碰信號轉換為觸碰座標後,會將觸碰座標傳送給處理單元130。因此,處理單元130可以通過驅動單元120與觸控板110接收使用者輸入操作指令。 The processing unit 130 is coupled to the driving unit 120 and the interface circuit 160. In the present exemplary embodiment, the processing unit 130 may be a central processing unit, a keyboard controller, a micro-controller, or a control chipset. The invention is not limited thereto. After the driving unit 120 converts the touch signal of the touch panel 110 into a touch coordinate, the touch coordinates are transmitted to the processing unit 130. Therefore, the processing unit 130 can receive a user input operation instruction through the driving unit 120 and the touch panel 110.

週邊元件170包括充電器172、高解析度多媒體介面(High-Definition Multimedia Interface,HDMI)元件174或其他週邊元件。週邊元件170透過對應的介面電路160耦接至電子裝置100。例如,充電器172可以透過對應的通用序列匯排流(Universal Serial Bus,USB)介面電路162而被連接至電子裝置100,以便提供電子裝置100運作與充電所需的電力。又例如,電子裝置100可以透過對應的HDMI介面電路164傳送HDMI影像資料至HDMI元件174(例如電視機或監視器)。在其他實施例中,週邊元件170還可以是滑鼠、鍵盤或其他週邊裝置等。 Peripheral component 170 includes a charger 172, a High-Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI) component 174, or other peripheral components. The peripheral component 170 is coupled to the electronic device 100 through a corresponding interface circuit 160. For example, the charger 172 can be connected to the electronic device 100 through a corresponding Universal Serial Bus (USB) interface circuit 162 to provide power required for the operation and charging of the electronic device 100. For another example, the electronic device 100 can transmit the HDMI image data to the HDMI component 174 (eg, a television or a monitor) through the corresponding HDMI interface circuit 164. In other embodiments, the peripheral component 170 can also be a mouse, keyboard, or other peripheral device or the like.

當週邊元件170連接至電子裝置100的介面電路160,或是連接至電子裝置100的週邊元件170被致能時,介面電路160會將週邊元件170的特性資訊通知驅動單元120與處理單元130。因此,驅動單元120與處理單元130 可以透過對應的介面電路160以輪詢(polling)或中斷(interrupt)方式獲知週邊元件170的特性資訊,例如廠牌、型號、裝置類別或是其他資訊。例如,驅動單元120與處理單元130可以透過USB介面電路162獲知充電器172的廠牌、型號或是其他資訊。在其他實施例中,週邊元件170的特性資訊與週邊元件170本身的元件特性有關,例如週邊元件170的工作頻率。 When the peripheral component 170 is connected to the interface circuit 160 of the electronic device 100, or the peripheral component 170 connected to the electronic device 100 is enabled, the interface circuit 160 notifies the driving unit 120 and the processing unit 130 of the characteristic information of the peripheral component 170. Therefore, the driving unit 120 and the processing unit 130 The characteristic information of the peripheral component 170, such as the brand, model, device category or other information, can be obtained through polling or interrupting through the corresponding interface circuit 160. For example, the driving unit 120 and the processing unit 130 can obtain the brand, model or other information of the charger 172 through the USB interface circuit 162. In other embodiments, the characteristic information of the peripheral component 170 is related to the component characteristics of the peripheral component 170 itself, such as the operating frequency of the peripheral component 170.

在其他實施例中,所述特性資訊包括旗標信號。例如,以第一旗標信號為真(true)表示充電器172連接至USB介面電路162(或充電器172被致能(enable)),以第一旗標信號為偽(false)表示充電器172沒有連接至USB介面電路162(或充電器172被禁能(disable)),以第二旗標信號為真表示HDMI元件174連接至HDMI介面電路164(或HDMI元件174被致能),以第二旗標信號為偽表示HDMI元件174沒有連接至HDMI介面電路164(或HDMI元件174被禁能)。因此,驅動單元120與處理單元130可以從介面電路160所提供週邊元件170的特性資訊來分辨出週邊元件170有無連接至電子裝置100,以及連接至電子裝置100的週邊元件170的裝置類別(例如USB元件類、HDMI元件類等)。 In other embodiments, the characteristic information includes a flag signal. For example, the first flag signal is true (true) indicates that the charger 172 is connected to the USB interface circuit 162 (or the charger 172 is enabled), and the first flag signal is false (false) for the charger. 172 is not connected to the USB interface circuit 162 (or the charger 172 is disabled), and the second flag signal is true to indicate that the HDMI component 174 is connected to the HDMI interface circuit 164 (or the HDMI component 174 is enabled) to The second flag signal is false indicating that the HDMI component 174 is not connected to the HDMI interface circuit 164 (or the HDMI component 174 is disabled). Therefore, the driving unit 120 and the processing unit 130 can distinguish, from the characteristic information of the peripheral component 170 provided by the interface circuit 160, whether the peripheral component 170 is connected to the electronic device 100, and the device category connected to the peripheral component 170 of the electronic device 100 (for example, USB component class, HDMI component class, etc.).

在本實施例中,驅動單元120使用的工作組態會隨著電子裝置100的運作狀態作適當的動態調整。當週邊元件170耦接或電性連接至電子裝置100的介面電路160,或是被連接至電子裝置100的週邊元件170被致能時,例如充 電器172或HDMI元件174電性連接至電子裝置100的介面電路160時,驅動單元120可以得知週邊元件170的特性資訊,以及依據週邊元件170的特性資訊從多個組態參數集(configuration parameter set)中查找出對應於週邊元件170的一個組態參數集,以及依據所找出的該組態參數集調整驅動單元120的工作組態。所述組態參數集包括一工作頻率設定、一感測門檻值、一重複確認次數值或其他工作參數。在本實施例中,於電子裝置100出廠時,所述多個組態參數集就已經被記錄於電子裝置100的驅動單元120中,然而本發明不以此為限。在其他實施例中,於電子裝置100出廠時,所述多個組態參數集的內容可以是空白,而由使用者決定組態參數集的內容。 In the present embodiment, the working configuration used by the driving unit 120 is appropriately dynamically adjusted according to the operating state of the electronic device 100. When the peripheral component 170 is coupled or electrically connected to the interface circuit 160 of the electronic device 100, or is enabled by the peripheral component 170 connected to the electronic device 100, for example, charging When the electrical device 172 or the HDMI component 174 is electrically connected to the interface circuit 160 of the electronic device 100, the driving unit 120 can know the characteristic information of the peripheral component 170, and according to the characteristic information of the peripheral component 170, from a plurality of configuration parameter sets (configuration parameter A set of configuration parameters corresponding to the peripheral component 170 is found in set), and the working configuration of the driving unit 120 is adjusted according to the found configuration parameter set. The configuration parameter set includes an operating frequency setting, a sensing threshold value, a repeated confirmation number value, or other operating parameters. In the embodiment, when the electronic device 100 is shipped from the factory, the plurality of configuration parameter sets are already recorded in the driving unit 120 of the electronic device 100, but the invention is not limited thereto. In other embodiments, when the electronic device 100 is shipped from the factory, the content of the plurality of configuration parameter sets may be blank, and the content of the configuration parameter set is determined by the user.

當週邊元件170耦接或電性連接至電子裝置100的介面電路160,或是被連接至電子裝置100的週邊元件170被致能時,驅動單元120可以依據週邊元件170的特性資訊查找出對應於週邊元件170的一個組態參數集,以及依據該組態參數集調整驅動單元120的工作組態。因此,驅動單元120在對觸控板110進行掃描/驅動時可以動態採用最佳化的工作組態,以減少來自於週邊元件170的干擾雜訊。例如,驅動單元120依據該組態參數集的工作頻率設定而決定驅動單元120的掃描頻率(避免受週邊元件170干擾的掃描頻率),然後以該掃描頻率驅動觸控板110,以減少來自於週邊元件170的干擾雜訊。 When the peripheral component 170 is coupled or electrically connected to the interface circuit 160 of the electronic device 100, or the peripheral component 170 connected to the electronic device 100 is enabled, the driving unit 120 can find a corresponding information according to the characteristic information of the peripheral component 170. A set of configuration parameters of the peripheral component 170 and an operational configuration of the drive unit 120 are adjusted according to the set of configuration parameters. Therefore, the driving unit 120 can dynamically adopt an optimized working configuration when scanning/driving the touch panel 110 to reduce interference noise from the peripheral components 170. For example, the driving unit 120 determines the scanning frequency of the driving unit 120 according to the operating frequency setting of the configuration parameter set (avoiding the scanning frequency interfered by the peripheral component 170), and then drives the touch panel 110 at the scanning frequency to reduce the Interference noise of peripheral component 170.

在本發明之一實施例中,驅動單元120具有記憶體,以便記錄觸控板110的工作組態。驅動單元120會根據此工作組態而決定其對觸控板110的操作方式,例如座標演算法、感測門檻值、掃描頻率等。在本實施例中,驅動單元120的記憶體記錄的工作組態包含初始默認組態與目前工作組態。在初始狀態下,該目前工作組態會被設定為初始默認組態,因此驅動單元120根據此初始默認組態而決定其對觸控板110進行驅動的工作組態。 In an embodiment of the invention, the drive unit 120 has a memory for recording the operational configuration of the touchpad 110. The driving unit 120 determines its operation mode on the touch panel 110 according to the working configuration, such as a coordinate algorithm, a sensing threshold, a scanning frequency, and the like. In this embodiment, the working configuration of the memory record of the drive unit 120 includes an initial default configuration and a current working configuration. In the initial state, the current working configuration is set to the initial default configuration, so the driving unit 120 determines its working configuration for driving the touch panel 110 according to the initial default configuration.

當週邊元件170連接至電子裝置100的介面電路160,或是連接至電子裝置100的週邊元件170被致能時,處理單元130依據週邊元件170的特性資訊從多個組態參數集中查找出對應於週邊元件170的一個組態參數集,然後依據對應於週邊元件170的組態參數集決定是否變更驅動單元120的目前工作組態。在驅動單元120的目前工作組態被變更後,驅動單元120便依據新的目前工作組態對應改變用於驅動觸控板110的操作方式(例如改變掃描頻率)。 When the peripheral component 170 is connected to the interface circuit 160 of the electronic device 100, or the peripheral component 170 connected to the electronic device 100 is enabled, the processing unit 130 searches for a corresponding correspondence from a plurality of configuration parameter sets according to the characteristic information of the peripheral component 170. A set of configuration parameters of the peripheral component 170 is then used to determine whether to change the current operational configuration of the drive unit 120 based on the set of configuration parameters corresponding to the peripheral component 170. After the current working configuration of the driving unit 120 is changed, the driving unit 120 changes the operation mode for driving the touch panel 110 (for example, changing the scanning frequency) according to the new current working configuration.

驅動單元120依據與週邊元件170相對應的組態參數集的「工作頻率設定」而決定驅動單元120的掃描頻率,並以該掃描頻率驅動觸控板110。當驅動單元120對觸控板110的掃描頻率與週邊元件170相衝突時,週邊元件170將會影響觸控面板110的性能。於本實施例中,當驅動單元120對觸控板110的掃描頻率與週邊元件170相衝突時,驅動單元120變更對觸控板110的掃描頻率,以及對 應修正與週邊元件170相對應的組態參數集的「工作頻率設定」,以避開相衝突的週邊元件170的頻率範圍。 The driving unit 120 determines the scanning frequency of the driving unit 120 according to the "operating frequency setting" of the configuration parameter set corresponding to the peripheral component 170, and drives the touch panel 110 at the scanning frequency. When the scanning frequency of the touch panel 110 of the driving unit 120 collides with the peripheral component 170, the peripheral component 170 will affect the performance of the touch panel 110. In this embodiment, when the scanning frequency of the touch panel 110 conflicts with the peripheral component 170, the driving unit 120 changes the scanning frequency of the touch panel 110, and The "operating frequency setting" of the configuration parameter set corresponding to the peripheral component 170 should be corrected to avoid the frequency range of the conflicting peripheral component 170.

於本實施例中,當驅動單元120對觸控板110的掃描頻率與週邊元件170相衝突時,驅動單元120可以使用「跳頻操作」變更該掃描頻率,以尋找不受週邊元件170干擾的頻帶。在找到不受週邊元件170干擾的頻帶後,驅動單元120改變目前工作組態以變更對觸控板110的掃描頻率,以及對應修正對應於週邊元件170的組態參數集的「工作頻率設定」。 In this embodiment, when the scanning frequency of the touch panel 110 conflicts with the peripheral component 170 by the driving unit 120, the driving unit 120 may change the scanning frequency by using a “frequency hopping operation” to find that it is not interfered by the peripheral component 170. frequency band. After finding a frequency band that is not interfered by the peripheral component 170, the driving unit 120 changes the current working configuration to change the scanning frequency of the touch panel 110, and correspondingly corrects the "operating frequency setting" corresponding to the configuration parameter set of the peripheral component 170. .

於本實施例中,驅動單元120的記憶體記錄的工作組態包含初始默認組態與目前工作組態。驅動單元120根據此目前工作組態而決定其對觸控板110的驅動操作方式。當週邊元件170被禁能或被拔除時,驅動單元120可以將驅動單元120內部記憶體的目前工作組態回復為與初始默認組態相同內容。在另一實施例中,當週邊元件170被禁能或被拔除時,驅動單元120是依據預先記錄於驅動單元120內的一初始參數集將目前工作組態回復為初始默認組態。 In this embodiment, the working configuration of the memory record of the driving unit 120 includes an initial default configuration and a current working configuration. The driving unit 120 determines the driving operation mode of the touch panel 110 according to the current working configuration. When the peripheral component 170 is disabled or removed, the drive unit 120 can restore the current working configuration of the internal memory of the drive unit 120 to the same content as the initial default configuration. In another embodiment, when the peripheral component 170 is disabled or removed, the drive unit 120 returns the current working configuration to the initial default configuration in accordance with an initial set of parameters pre-recorded in the drive unit 120.

若在驅動單元120查找組態參數集的過程中,發現某一新週邊元件(如,HDMI元件174)的特性資訊沒有被預先登錄於驅動單元120中,則驅動單元120創建一個新組態參數集,並記錄所述新週邊元件的特性資訊與所述新組態參數集之關係。所述新組態參數集的初始內容可以相同於所述「初始參數集」的內容,以及/或是由使用者依需 求設定所述新組態參數集的內容。在其他實施例中,所述新組態參數集的初始內容可以相同於同類型週邊元件的組態參數集的內容。例如,假設組態參數集A1適用於充電器B1,當驅動單元發現新充電器B2的特性資訊沒有被預先登錄於驅動單元中時,驅動單元創建一新組態參數集A2,並且將新組態參數集A2的初始內容設定為相同於同類型週邊元件B1的組態參數集A1的內容。 If the characteristic information of a new peripheral component (eg, HDMI component 174) is not previously registered in the drive unit 120 during the process of the drive unit 120 looking up the configuration parameter set, the drive unit 120 creates a new configuration parameter. And collecting the relationship between the characteristic information of the new peripheral component and the new configuration parameter set. The initial content of the new configuration parameter set may be the same as the content of the "initial parameter set", and/or may be required by the user Find the content of the new configuration parameter set. In other embodiments, the initial content of the new configuration parameter set may be the same as the content of the configuration parameter set of the same type of peripheral component. For example, suppose the configuration parameter set A1 is applied to the charger B1. When the drive unit finds that the characteristic information of the new charger B2 is not previously registered in the drive unit, the drive unit creates a new configuration parameter set A2, and the new group The initial content of the state parameter set A2 is set to be the same as the content of the configuration parameter set A1 of the peripheral component B1 of the same type.

驅動單元120可以依據所述新週邊元件的特性資訊動態調整所述新組態參數集的內容。例如,當驅動單元120對觸控板110的掃描頻率遭受到此新的週邊元件170干擾時,驅動單元120可以使用跳頻操作來變更驅動單元120對觸控板110的掃描頻率,以尋找不受此新的週邊元件170干擾的頻帶。在以跳頻操作的方式找到不受週邊元件170干擾的頻帶後,驅動單元120將不受週邊元件170干擾的頻帶登錄於所述新組態參數集。至此,驅動單元120已經「認識」了新的週邊元件170。當下一次週邊元件170(例如HDMI元件174)再次被致能或再次被連接至電子裝置100時,驅動單元120可快速地對應決定是否變更驅動單元120的掃描頻率,而不需要進行傳統耗時的跳頻操作。 The driving unit 120 can dynamically adjust the content of the new configuration parameter set according to the characteristic information of the new peripheral component. For example, when the scanning frequency of the touch panel 110 of the driving unit 120 is disturbed by the new peripheral component 170, the driving unit 120 may use a frequency hopping operation to change the scanning frequency of the touch panel 110 by the driving unit 120 to find no A frequency band that is interfered by this new peripheral component 170. After finding a frequency band that is not interfered by the peripheral component 170 in a frequency hopping operation, the drive unit 120 logs the frequency band that is not interfered by the peripheral component 170 to the new configuration parameter set. At this point, the drive unit 120 has "knowed" the new peripheral component 170. When the next peripheral component 170 (eg, HDMI component 174) is enabled or reconnected to the electronic device 100 again, the driving unit 120 can quickly determine whether to change the scanning frequency of the driving unit 120 without conventional time-consuming Frequency hopping operation.

Referring to FIG. 1 and FIG. 2 simultaneously, in step S210, at least one interface circuit 160 detects whether at least one peripheral component 170 is connected to the interface circuit 160, or whether the peripheral component 170 connected to the interface circuit 160 is enabled ( Enable). Wherein the peripheral component The 170 is connected to the electronic device 100 through the interface circuit 160. In step S220, the driving unit 120 drives the touch panel 110 in a working configuration to read the touch coordinates of the touch panel 110. The sequence of steps S210 and S220 shown in FIG. 2 is merely an example. In another embodiment, after step S220 is completed, step S210 is performed. In other embodiments, step S210 and step S220 can be performed simultaneously.

在開機後的初始狀態中,驅動單元120於步驟S220中所使用的工作組態為一初始默認組態。例如,依據原廠設定,驅動單元120用來驅動觸控板110的初始掃描頻率為300kHz(千赫茲)。 In the initial state after the power-on, the operation used by the drive unit 120 in step S220 is configured as an initial default configuration. For example, according to the factory setting, the initial scanning frequency of the driving unit 120 for driving the touch panel 110 is 300 kHz (kilohertz).

在步驟S230中,驅動單元120判斷是否有電子裝置100的週邊元件170被致能或被連接至電子裝置100的介面電路160。例如,驅動單元120依據介面電路160的回報信號來判斷是否有週邊元件170被致能或被連接至電子裝置100。當週邊元件170被致能或被連接至介面電路160時,驅動單元120執行步驟S240,否則回到步驟S210與/或步驟S220。 In step S230, the driving unit 120 determines whether the peripheral component 170 of the electronic device 100 is enabled or connected to the interface circuit 160 of the electronic device 100. For example, the driving unit 120 determines whether the peripheral component 170 is enabled or connected to the electronic device 100 according to the reward signal of the interface circuit 160. When the peripheral element 170 is enabled or connected to the interface circuit 160, the drive unit 120 performs step S240, otherwise returns to step S210 and/or step S220.

驅動單元120於步驟S230中透過介面電路160獲得週邊元件170的特性資訊。驅動單元120於步驟S240中依據週邊元件170的特性資訊從多個組態參數集中查找出對應於所述週邊元件170的一個組態參數集。在驅動單元120獲得對應於週邊元件170的組態參數集之後,驅動單元120進行步驟S250,以依據該組態參數集調整驅動單元 120的工作組態。然後,驅動單元120回到步驟S210與/或步驟S220。 The driving unit 120 obtains characteristic information of the peripheral component 170 through the interface circuit 160 in step S230. The driving unit 120 searches for a configuration parameter set corresponding to the peripheral component 170 from a plurality of configuration parameter sets according to the characteristic information of the peripheral component 170 in step S240. After the driving unit 120 obtains the configuration parameter set corresponding to the peripheral component 170, the driving unit 120 proceeds to step S250 to adjust the driving unit according to the configuration parameter set. 120 working configuration. Then, the drive unit 120 returns to step S210 and/or step S220.

例如,表1說明週邊元件170的特性資訊與組態參數集之關係。在此僅以充電器172與HDMI元件174作為說明範例,本領域具有通常知識者可以參照本實施例的教示而類推至更多週邊元件。當充電器172與HDMI元件174皆被禁能或被拔除時,由驅動單元120依據初始參數集將驅動單元120的工作組態回復為初始默認組態。 For example, Table 1 illustrates the relationship between the characteristic information of the peripheral component 170 and the configuration parameter set. Here, only the charger 172 and the HDMI component 174 are taken as an illustrative example, and those skilled in the art can refer to more peripheral components with reference to the teachings of the present embodiment. When both the charger 172 and the HDMI component 174 are disabled or removed, the operating configuration of the drive unit 120 is restored by the drive unit 120 to the initial default configuration in accordance with the initial set of parameters.

請參照表1與圖1,當充電器172被禁能或被拔除,且HDMI元件174被致能或被連接至所述介面電路160時,由驅動單元120依據週邊元件的特性資訊查找出適用於HDMI元件174的組態參數集A,且依據組態參數集A調整驅動單元120的工作組態。以工作組態中的掃描頻率為例,假設HDMI元件174的工作頻率為305kHz,其與於初始默認組態中驅動單元120對觸控板110的工作頻率設定值300kHz極為接近,則HDMI元件174的工作頻率 將會干擾於初始默認組態中驅動單元120的操作,而導致在觸控板110的感測結果產生大量的雜訊,進而影響觸控板110的感測性能。因此,在驅動單元120套用了適於HDMI元件174的組態參數集A後,驅動單元120會依據該組態參數集A的工作頻率設定而變更掃描頻率,例如將掃描頻率變更為350kHz。然後,驅動單元120使用變更後的掃描頻率驅動觸控板110來讀取使用者在觸控板110上的觸碰座標。 Referring to Table 1 and FIG. 1, when the charger 172 is disabled or removed, and the HDMI component 174 is enabled or connected to the interface circuit 160, the driving unit 120 finds out the applicable information according to the characteristic information of the peripheral components. The configuration parameter set A of the HDMI component 174 is adjusted, and the operational configuration of the drive unit 120 is adjusted according to the configuration parameter set A. Taking the scanning frequency in the working configuration as an example, assuming that the operating frequency of the HDMI component 174 is 305 kHz, which is very close to the operating frequency setting value 300 kHz of the touch panel 110 by the driving unit 120 in the initial default configuration, the HDMI component 174 Working frequency The operation of the driving unit 120 in the initial default configuration will be disturbed, and a large amount of noise is generated in the sensing result of the touch panel 110, thereby affecting the sensing performance of the touch panel 110. Therefore, after the drive unit 120 applies the configuration parameter set A suitable for the HDMI component 174, the drive unit 120 changes the scan frequency according to the operating frequency setting of the configuration parameter set A, for example, changes the scan frequency to 350 kHz. Then, the driving unit 120 drives the touch panel 110 to use the changed scanning frequency to read the touch coordinates of the user on the touch panel 110.

請參照表1與圖1,當HDMI元件174被禁能或被拔除,且充電器172被致能或被連接至所述介面電路160時,由驅動單元120依據週邊元件的特性資訊查找出適用於充電器172的組態參數集B,且依據組態參數集B調整驅動單元120的工作組態。以工作組態中的掃描頻率為例,假設充電器172的工作頻率為355kHz,其與驅動單元120對觸控板110的目前掃描頻率350kHz極為接近,則充電器172的工作頻率將會干擾驅動單元120的操作,而影響觸控板110的感測性能。因此,在驅動單元120套用了適於充電器172的組態參數集B後,驅動單元120會依據該組態參數集B的工作頻率設定而變更掃描頻率,例如將掃描頻率變更為300kHz。然後,驅動單元120使用變更後的掃描頻率驅動觸控板110來讀取使用者在觸控板110上的觸碰座標。 Referring to Table 1 and FIG. 1, when the HDMI component 174 is disabled or removed, and the charger 172 is enabled or connected to the interface circuit 160, the driving unit 120 finds out the applicable information according to the characteristic information of the peripheral components. The configuration parameter set B of the charger 172 is used, and the working configuration of the driving unit 120 is adjusted according to the configuration parameter set B. Taking the scanning frequency in the working configuration as an example, assuming that the operating frequency of the charger 172 is 355 kHz, which is very close to the current scanning frequency of the touch panel 110 of the driving unit 120, the operating frequency of the charger 172 will interfere with the driving. The operation of the unit 120 affects the sensing performance of the touch panel 110. Therefore, after the drive unit 120 applies the configuration parameter set B suitable for the charger 172, the drive unit 120 changes the scan frequency according to the operating frequency setting of the configuration parameter set B, for example, changes the scan frequency to 300 kHz. Then, the driving unit 120 drives the touch panel 110 to use the changed scanning frequency to read the touch coordinates of the user on the touch panel 110.

請參照表1與圖1,當充電器172與HDMI元件174均被致能或均被連接至所述介面電路160時,由驅動單元 120依據週邊元件的特性資訊查找出適用於充電器172與HDMI元件174的組態參數集C,且依據組態參數集C調整驅動單元120的工作組態。以工作組態中的掃描頻率為例,假設充電器172的工作頻率為355kHz,HDMI元件174的工作頻率為305kHz,其與驅動單元120對觸控板110的目前掃描頻率300kHz極為接近,則充電器172及/或HDMI元件174的工作頻率將會干擾驅動單元120的操作,而影響觸控板110的感測性能。因此,在驅動單元120套用了適於充電器172的組態參數集C後,驅動單元120會依據該組態參數集C的工作頻率設定而變更掃描頻率,例如將掃描頻率變更為400kHz。然後,驅動單元120使用變更後的掃描頻率驅動觸控板110來讀取使用者在觸控板110上的觸碰座標。 Referring to Table 1 and FIG. 1, when both the charger 172 and the HDMI component 174 are enabled or both are connected to the interface circuit 160, the driving unit is 120 finds the configuration parameter set C applicable to the charger 172 and the HDMI component 174 according to the characteristic information of the peripheral components, and adjusts the working configuration of the driving unit 120 according to the configuration parameter set C. Taking the scanning frequency in the working configuration as an example, assuming that the operating frequency of the charger 172 is 355 kHz and the operating frequency of the HDMI component 174 is 305 kHz, which is very close to the current scanning frequency of the touch panel 110 of the touch panel 110, the charging is performed. The operating frequency of the 172 and/or HDMI component 174 will interfere with the operation of the drive unit 120 and affect the sensing performance of the touchpad 110. Therefore, after the drive unit 120 applies the configuration parameter set C suitable for the charger 172, the drive unit 120 changes the scan frequency according to the operating frequency setting of the configuration parameter set C, for example, changes the scan frequency to 400 kHz. Then, the driving unit 120 drives the touch panel 110 to use the changed scanning frequency to read the touch coordinates of the user on the touch panel 110.

據此,驅動電路120可以快速並輕易的依據週邊元件170的連接狀態(致能狀態)而切換不同的工作組態,以改善因週邊裝置170所產生的雜訊干擾問題。 Accordingly, the driving circuit 120 can quickly and easily switch between different operating configurations depending on the connection state (enable state) of the peripheral component 170 to improve the noise interference caused by the peripheral device 170.

綜上所述,在本發明的實施例中,驅動單元120依據週邊元件170的特性資訊查找出對應於所述週邊元件170的組態參數集,並依據該組態參數集調整驅動單元120的工作組態。據此,電子裝置100可快速地依據週邊元件170的連接狀態(致能狀態)而動態切換不同的工作組態。因此,電子裝置100可以改善觸控板110的性能。 In the embodiment of the present invention, the driving unit 120 searches for a configuration parameter set corresponding to the peripheral component 170 according to the characteristic information of the peripheral component 170, and adjusts the driving unit 120 according to the configuration parameter set.
