如圖10所示,下方觸摸感應層70設置在玻璃基板50的下表面,下方觸摸感應層70包含感測電極跡線圖案RxP (Rx pattern)、感測信號導線78及接地線79,感測電極跡線圖案RxP形成在該基板50的觸摸有效區域AA,感測信號導線78及接地線79設置在該基板50的觸摸有效區域AA外側,感測電極跡線圖案RxP包含多數順沿X軸方向平行排列的感測電極組71,且任意二個相鄰的感測電極組71之間具有相同的電極組節距EP7,其中,在感測電極組71內包含三條順沿X軸方向平行排列的X軸導電條72,各個X軸導電條72具有相同寬度W7,且彼此之間以相同節距P7設置,在任意二條相鄰的X軸導電條72之間由一絕緣間隙73將彼此隔開,將其中一條X軸導電條72設定為有效感測電極單元Rx,並將該有效感測電極單元Rx連接至電極信號導線78,再將其中沒有被連接至該有效感測電極單元Rx的那二條X軸導電條72連接至接地線79;其中,Y軸導電條61之間的節距P6與X軸導電條71之間的節距P7相同,該等節距P6、P7被設定為2mm,而該Y軸的絕緣間隙63被設定20μm,X軸的絕緣間隙73被設定300μm,從而使Y軸導電條61的寬度W6大於X軸導電條71的寬度W7,換言之,Y軸導電條61的面積將會大於X軸導電條71的面積。在圖7中顯示由玻璃基板50、上方觸摸感應層60以及下方觸摸感應層70共同組成後的電容式觸摸感應器的平面圖;在本實施例中,驅動電極被設置在上方觸摸感應層60,感測電極被設置在下方觸摸感應層70,其中,該驅動電極組61之間的電極組節距EP6相同於該感測電極組71之間的電極組節距EP7,亦即該等電極組節距EP6、EP7的寬度均為6mm,且該有效驅動電極單元Tx的面積將大於該有效感測電極單元Rx的面積。As shown in FIG. 10, the lower
進言之,在前述實施例中驅動電極組61內包含了三條Y軸導電條62,感測電極組71內包含三條X軸導電條72,但如果應用在較大尺寸的感應器上時,可在該等電極組61、71內可包含較多數量的導電條62、71,例如是由原來的三條改變成六條或十條或是更多數量,以便增加電極組節距EP6、EP7的尺寸,適用於較大尺寸的感應器;此外,亦可藉由改變該等有效驅動電極單元Tx及有效感測電極單元Rx所連接的導電條62、71數量,來調設所擷取的觸摸感測電容值以符合不同廠家觸摸IC所設定的工作電容值範圍;據此可知,本發明可利用改變驅動電極組61與感測電極組71中的導電條組成數量,以及/或是變更有效驅動電極單元Tx與有效感測電極單元Rx中所連接的導電條數量,來調整設計該觸摸感應器的大小尺寸規格以及工作電容值範圍。In other words, in the foregoing embodiment, the driving
圖11至圖13描述了一種使用前述模組化觸摸玻璃板材製成的電容式觸摸感應器的第二實施例,與前述第一實施例對比,本實施例為一較簡化的電容式觸摸感應器結構,二者構造雷同的部分於此不再重複贅述,其主要的差別在於本實施例的上方觸摸感應層70 沒有導電條接地結構的設置,其中,如圖12所示,在上方觸摸感應層60的驅動電極組61內包含三條順沿Y軸方向平行排列的Y軸導電條62,並該三條Y軸導電條62彼此電性連接成為有效驅動電極單元Tx,使該有效驅動電極單元Tx連接至驅動信號導線68;另如圖13所示,在下方觸摸感應層70的感測電極組71內包含三條順沿X軸方向平行排列的X軸導電條72,將其中一條X軸導電條72設定為有效感測電極單元Rx,並將該有效感測電極單元Rx連接至電極信號導線78,再將其中沒有被連接至該有效感測電極單元Rx的那二條X軸導電條72連接至接地線79;其中,該有效驅動電極單元Tx的面積大於該有效感測電極單元Rx的面積,上方觸摸感應層60和下方觸摸感應層70共同形成一電容式觸摸感應器。據此可知,利用改變驅動電極組61與感測電極組71中的導電條組成數量,以及/或是變更有效驅動電極單元Tx與有效感測電極單元Rx中所連接的導電條數量,該觸摸感應器的電容感測效能及規格即可簡易地被調整。Figures 11 to 13 describe a second embodiment of a capacitive touch sensor made of the aforementioned modular touch glass sheet.
