一般的4線電阻式觸控面板係透過4線的連接頭與控制器連接,同樣地,5線電阻式觸控面板係透過5線的連接頭與控制器連接。因此本發明提出一5線連接頭的偵測裝置與方法,可以用一5線連接頭連接4線或5線電阻式觸控面板,並且偵測出5線連接頭中的5個接腳與4線或5線電阻式觸控面板間的連接關係。A general 4-wire resistive touch panel is connected to the controller through a 4-wire connector.

The connection relationship between 4-wire or 5-wire resistive touch panels.

本發明之第一具體實施例係一種偵測4線或5線電阻式觸控面板接線方式的裝置,如第二圖所示,包含一偵測單元40與平行排列的五接腳,包含依序平行排列之一第一接腳11、一第二接腳12、一第三接腳13、一第四接腳14與一第五接腳15,其中該五接腳之至少四接腳連接於一觸控面板20。偵測單元40透過五接腳與觸控面板20連接,負責偵測五接腳與觸控面板20的連接關係,其中偵測單元40可以是包含於控制器60中,亦可以是外接於控制器60外。控制器60透過五接腳連接觸控面板20,並且依據偵測單元40所偵測到的連接 關係控制觸控面板20,以偵測被觸碰位置。在本發明之一較佳範例中,5接腳可以是直接連接到觸控面板20,不必然需要經過連接頭來連接。A first embodiment of the present invention is a device for detecting a wiring manner of a 4-wire or 5-wire resistive touch panel. As shown in the second figure, the present invention includes a detecting unit 40 and five pins arranged in parallel, including One of the first pin 11, the second pin 12, the third pin 13, the fourth pin 14 and the fifth pin 15 are arranged in parallel, wherein at least four pins of the five pins are connected. On a touch panel 20. The detecting unit 40 is connected to the touch panel 20 through the five pins, and is responsible for detecting the connection relationship between the five pins and the touch panel 20. The detecting unit 40 may be included in the controller 60 or externally connected to the control unit. Outside the device 60. The controller 60 is connected to the touch panel 20 through five pins, and is connected according to the detection unit 40. The relationship controls the touch panel 20 to detect the touched position. In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the 5 pins may be directly connected to the touch panel 20, and do not necessarily need to be connected through the connector.

在本發明之一較佳範例中,偵測單元可包含提供高電位與低電位之驅動元件、偵測電壓、電流或邏輯準位之偵測元件(例如差動放大器)、由偵測元件輸出之訊號進行判斷之判斷元件。其中判斷元件可以是由電路構成或透過可程式處理器來實施。In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the detecting unit may include a driving component that provides a high potential and a low potential, a detecting component that detects a voltage, a current, or a logic level (eg, a differential amplifier), and is output by the detecting component. The signal is judged by the signal. The determining component can be implemented by a circuit or by a programmable processor.

本發明之第二具體實施例係一種偵測4線或5線電阻式觸控面板接線方式的方法,如第三圖所示。首先,如步驟310所示,分別提供一第一高電位與一第一低電位於上述第一接腳11與第五接腳15。接下來,如步驟320所示,依據第一接腳11與第五接腳15間是斷路還是通路,來判斷觸控面板20是一4線電阻式觸控面板還是一5線電阻式觸控面板。其中,當觸控面板20為5線電阻式觸控面板時,第一接腳11與第五接腳15係連接於5線電阻式觸控面板之相同層。A second embodiment of the present invention is a method for detecting a wiring manner of a 4-wire or 5-wire resistive touch panel, as shown in the third figure. First, as shown in step 310, a first high potential and a first low power are respectively provided at the first pin 11 and the fifth pin 15. Next, as shown in step 320, whether the touch panel 20 is a 4-wire resistive touch panel or a 5-wire resistive touch is determined according to whether the first pin 11 and the fifth pin 15 are open or closed. panel. When the touch panel 20 is a 5-wire resistive touch panel, the first pin 11 and the fifth pin 15 are connected to the same layer of the 5-wire resistive touch panel.

在本發明之一較佳範例中,第一高電位與第一低電位的提供、及第一接腳11與第五接腳15間是斷路還是通路的感測係由上述偵測單元40來執行。第四A圖、第四B圖係本具體實施例以偵測單元40透過五接腳中的四接腳連接4線電阻式觸控面板22之示意圖,並且第四C圖係本具體實施例以偵測 單元40透過五接腳連接5線電阻式觸控面板24之示意圖。在第四A圖與第四B圖中,4線電阻式觸控面板22必然只連接到第一接腳11或只連接到第五接腳15。因此當五接腳中四接腳連接4線電阻式觸控面板22,並且第一接腳11與第五接腳15分別被提供第一高電位VH1與第一低電位VL1時,第一接腳11與第五接腳15間必然為斷路。In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the sensing of the first high potential and the first low potential, and the sensing of the open or the path between the first pin 11 and the fifth pin 15 are performed by the detecting unit 40. carried out. 4A and 4B are schematic diagrams of the detection unit 40 connecting the 4-wire resistive touch panel 22 through the four pins of the five pins, and the fourth C is a specific embodiment. To detect The unit 40 is connected to the five-wire resistive touch panel 24 through five pins. In the fourth A and fourth B diagrams, the 4-wire resistive touch panel 22 is necessarily only connected to the first pin 11 or only to the fifth pin 15. Therefore, when the four pins of the five pins are connected to the 4-wire resistive touch panel 22, and the first pin 11 and the fifth pin 15 are respectively supplied with the first high potential VH1 and the first low potential VL1, the first connection The foot 11 and the fifth pin 15 are necessarily disconnected.

相反地,如果五接腳連接5線電阻式觸控面板24,其中第一接腳11與第五接腳15分別被提供第一高電位VH1與第一低電位VL1,並且第一接腳11與第五接腳15間為通路時,便可以據此判斷觸控面板20是一4線電阻式觸控面板22還是一5線電阻式觸控面板24。為了達成此目的,當五接腳連接5線電阻式觸控面板24時,第一接腳與第五接腳必需連接於5線電阻式觸控面板24之相同層。另外,連接5線電阻式觸控面板24之另一層的接腳(wiper terminal)係連接第二接腳12、第三接腳13、第四接腳14三者之一。Conversely, if the five-pin resistive touch panel 24 is connected to the five-pin, the first pin 11 and the fifth pin 15 are respectively provided with the first high potential VH1 and the first low potential VL1, and the first pin 11 When the path between the fifth pin 15 and the fifth pin 15 is used, it can be determined whether the touch panel 20 is a 4-wire resistive touch panel 22 or a 5-wire resistive touch panel 24. In order to achieve this, when the five-wire resistive touch panel 24 is connected to the five-pin, the first pin and the fifth pin must be connected to the same layer of the 5-wire resistive touch panel 24. In addition, a Wiper terminal connecting another layer of the 5-wire resistive touch panel 24 is connected to one of the second pin 12, the third pin 13, and the fourth pin 14.

在本發明之一範例中,第一接腳11與第五接腳15間是斷路還是通路的判斷可以是如第四A圖至第四C圖所示,以一電流計A量測第一接腳11或第五接腳15之電流,來判斷第一接腳11與第五接腳15間是斷路還是通路。在本發明之另一範例中,如第四D圖與第四E圖所示,第一高電位VH1或第一低電位VL1係經一電性元件M來提供,第一接腳11與 第五接腳15間是斷路還是通路係透過對電性耦合於電性元件M之接腳的感測,其中電性元件M之電阻值大於該觸控面板。例如在第四D圖中,電性元件M為一提升電阻,因此當電壓計V感測到第一接腳11之電位為第一高電位VH1時,第一接腳11與第五接腳15間為斷路,反之,當第一接腳11之電位低於一門檻限值時,第一接腳11與第五接腳15間為通路。同理,第一低電位VL1亦可以經由電性元件M提供。In an example of the present invention, the determination of whether the first pin 11 and the fifth pin 15 are open or closed may be as shown in the fourth to fourth C charts, and the first measurement is performed by an ammeter A. The current of the pin 11 or the fifth pin 15 determines whether there is an open circuit or a path between the first pin 11 and the fifth pin 15. In another example of the present invention, as shown in the fourth D diagram and the fourth E diagram, the first high potential VH1 or the first low potential VL1 is provided via an electrical component M, and the first pin 11 is Whether the fifth pin 15 is open or the path is sensed by a pin electrically coupled to the electrical component M, wherein the electrical component M has a resistance greater than the touch panel. For example, in the fourth D diagram, the electrical component M is a boosting resistor, so when the voltmeter V senses that the potential of the first pin 11 is the first high potential VH1, the first pin 11 and the fifth pin 15 is an open circuit. Conversely, when the potential of the first pin 11 is lower than a threshold value, the first pin 11 and the fifth pin 15 are paths. Similarly, the first low potential VL1 can also be provided via the electrical component M.

換言之,通路與斷路的判斷,可藉由電流計或電壓計來感測,亦可藉由電性元件M與接腳間的訊號準位來判斷。當電性元件M之阻值夠大(大於或遠大於觸控面版40),並且被提供高電位與低電位之接腳間為通路時,電性元件M兩端必然產生明顯壓差。例如,低電位係由電性元件M提供時,在被提供高電位與低電位之接腳間分別為通路與斷路時,可使得電性元件與接腳間的訊號分別趨近或等於高電位與低電位。其中電性元件與接腳間的訊號可以是高邏輯準位或低邏輯準位,可直接作為其他電性元件之控制或輸入訊號。因此,上述之感測包含但不限於依據電性元件與接腳間的訊號的邏輯準位來判斷,由於不需要量測訊號的實際值,效能上較為迅速。In other words, the determination of the path and the open circuit can be sensed by an ammeter or a voltmeter, or can be judged by the signal level between the electrical component M and the pin. When the resistance of the electrical component M is sufficiently large (greater than or farther than the touch panel 40), and the path between the pin providing the high potential and the low potential is a path, a significant pressure difference is inevitably generated at both ends of the electrical component M. For example, when the low potential is provided by the electrical component M, the signal between the electrical component and the pin approaches or equals the high potential when the path between the high potential and the low potential pin is open and disconnected, respectively. With low potential. The signal between the electrical component and the pin can be a high logic level or a low logic level, and can be directly used as a control or input signal for other electrical components. Therefore, the above sensing includes, but is not limited to, determining according to the logic level of the signal between the electrical component and the pin. Since the actual value of the measurement signal is not required, the performance is relatively fast.

上述感測是斷路還是通路之各種方式亦可適用本發明之其他具體實施例中,本發明包含但不限於上述之感測方式,熟知相關技藝者可以推知其他可應用於本發明之方法與方式。The various ways in which the above sensing is an open circuit or a path may also be applied to other specific embodiments of the present invention. The present invention includes, but is not limited to, the sensing method described above, and those skilled in the art can infer other methods and methods that can be applied to the present invention. .

本發明之第三具體實施例係一種偵測4線電阻式觸控面板接線方式是連接前四接腳(第一接腳至第四接腳)還是後四接腳的方法,如第五圖所示。首先,如步驟510所示,當觸控面板20為4線電阻式觸控面板22時,提供一第二高電位與一第二低電位兩者之一於五接腳中四相鄰接腳之一接腳,並且輪流或同時提供第二高電位與第二低電位兩者之另一於四相鄰接腳之另外三相鄰接腳。接下來如步驟520所示,依據被提供第二高電位與第二低電位之接腳中是否有兩接腳間為通路,來判斷觸控面板20是連接於五接腳之前四接腳還是五接腳之後四接腳,其中被提供第二高電位與第二低電位之接腳僅包含第一接腳11與第五接腳15兩者之一。A third embodiment of the present invention is a method for detecting a 4-wire resistive touch panel connection method of connecting the first four pins (the first pin to the fourth pin) or the rear four pins, as shown in the fifth figure. Shown. First, as shown in step 510, when the touch panel 20 is a 4-wire resistive touch panel 22, one of a second high potential and a second low potential is provided to four adjacent pins of the five pins. One of the pins and alternately provides another three-phase abutment foot of the other four adjacent pins of the second high potential and the second low potential. Next, as shown in step 520, it is determined whether the touch panel 20 is connected to the four pins before the five pins according to whether there is a path between the two pins that are provided with the second high potential and the second low potential. After the five pins are four pins, the pin that is provided with the second high potential and the second low potential includes only one of the first pin 11 and the fifth pin 15.

當被提供第二高電位與第二低電位之接腳包含第一接腳11之四相鄰接腳(前四接腳),並且被提供第二高電位與第二低電位之接腳間皆為斷路時,觸控面板20連接於後四接腳,反之,觸控面板20連接於前四接腳。同理,當被提供第二高電位與第二低電位之接腳包含第五接腳15之四相鄰接腳(後四接腳),並且被提供第二高電位與第二低電位之接腳間皆為斷路時,觸控面板20連接於前四接腳,反之,觸控面板20連接於後四接腳。When the pin provided with the second high potential and the second low potential includes four adjacent pins of the first pin 11 (the first four pins), and is provided between the second high potential and the second low potential pin When the circuit is broken, the touch panel 20 is connected to the rear four pins, and the touch panel 20 is connected to the first four pins. Similarly, when the pin provided with the second high potential and the second low potential includes four adjacent pins of the fifth pin 15 (the last four pins), and is provided with the second high potential and the second low potential When the pins are both open, the touch panel 20 is connected to the first four pins, and the touch panel 20 is connected to the rear four pins.

在本發明之一較佳範例中,第二高電位與第二低電位的提供、與第一接腳11與第五接腳15間是斷路還是通路的判斷 係由上述偵測單元40來執行。In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the provision of the second high potential and the second low potential, and the determination of whether the first pin 11 and the fifth pin 15 are open or otherwise It is executed by the above detecting unit 40.

例如第六A圖與第六B圖所示,第二高電位VH2係提供給第一接腳11,並且第二低電位VL2係輪流或同時提供給第二接腳12、第三接腳13、第四接腳14等另外三相鄰接腳。透過對第一接腳11進行上述判斷斷路還是通路的方式,可以在4線電組式觸控面板連接前四接腳時判斷出第一接腳11與另外三相鄰接腳之一為通路,並且可以在4線電組式觸控面板連接後四接腳時感測到第一接腳11與另外三相鄰接腳皆為斷路。依此類推,可以如第六C圖與第六D圖所示,第二高電位VH2係提供給第五接腳11,並且第二低電位VL2係輪流或同時提供給第二接腳12、第三接腳13、第四接腳14等另外三相鄰接腳。For example, as shown in FIGS. 6A and 6B, the second high potential VH2 is supplied to the first pin 11, and the second low potential VL2 is alternately supplied to the second pin 12 and the third pin 13 at the same time. The fourth pin 14 and the like have three other adjacent legs. By performing the above-mentioned determination of the disconnection or the path of the first pin 11, it is possible to determine that one of the first pin 11 and the other three-phase abutment leg is a path when the four-wire group touch panel is connected to the first four pins. And the four pins can be disconnected when the four pins are connected after the four-wire group touch panel is connected. And so on, as shown in the sixth C diagram and the sixth D diagram, the second high potential VH2 is provided to the fifth pin 11, and the second low potential VL2 is provided in turn or simultaneously to the second pin 12, The third pin 13, the fourth pin 14 and the like have three other adjacent legs.

本發明之第四具體實施例係一種偵測4線電阻式觸控面板接線方式的方法,如第七圖所示。首先,如步驟710所示,在四接腳連接一4線電阻式觸控面板22時分別提供一第三高電位與一第三低電位於連接4線電阻式觸控面板22不同層的一第一對接腳。接下來,如步驟720所示,依據連接4線電阻式觸控面板22之另外一第二對接腳中至少一接腳的訊號,來判斷出連接於4線電阻式觸控面板22中相同層的接腳。A fourth embodiment of the present invention is a method for detecting a wiring manner of a 4-wire resistive touch panel, as shown in the seventh figure. First, as shown in step 710, a fourth high potential and a third low power are respectively provided on the different layers of the 4-wire resistive touch panel 22 when the four-wire resistive touch panel 22 is connected to the four pins. The first pair of pins. Next, as shown in step 720, it is determined that the same layer is connected to the 4-wire resistive touch panel 22 according to the signal connecting at least one of the other second pair of pins of the 4-wire resistive touch panel 22. The pin.

當連接4線電阻式觸控面板22不同層的第一對接腳為已知時,在觸控面板20沒被觸碰的情況下,同一層的接腳會維 持相同的電位,因此第一對接腳與第二對接腳中相同電位的接腳位於4線電阻式觸控面板22之相同層。When the first pair of pins connecting the different layers of the 4-wire resistive touch panel 22 are known, if the touch panel 20 is not touched, the pins of the same layer will be dimensioned. The same potential is maintained, so that the pins of the first pair of pins and the same potential of the second pair of pins are located on the same layer of the 4-wire resistive touch panel 22.

在本發明之一較佳範例中,第三高電位與第三低電位的提供、及第二對接腳的判斷係由上述偵測單元40來執行,如第八圖所示。如果被感測的接腳與被提供第三高電位VH3的接腳連接於4線電阻式觸控面板22相同層,在觸控面板20沒被觸碰時,被提供第三高電位VH3與被提供第三低電位VL3的接腳間為斷路,因此被感測的接腳與被提供第三高電位VH3的接腳維持相同的電位。同理,如果被感測的接腳與被提供第三低電位VL3的接腳連接於4線電阻式觸控面板22相同層,被感測的接腳與被提供第三高電位VH3的接腳維持相同的電位。In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the supply of the third high potential and the third low potential, and the determination of the second pair of pins are performed by the detecting unit 40, as shown in the eighth figure. If the sensed pin is connected to the same layer of the 4-wire resistive touch panel 22 as the pin provided with the third high potential VH3, the third high potential VH3 is provided when the touch panel 20 is not touched. The pin provided with the third low potential VL3 is open, so that the sensed pin maintains the same potential as the pin to which the third high potential VH3 is supplied. Similarly, if the sensed pin is connected to the same layer of the 4-wire resistive touch panel 22 as the pin provided with the third low potential VL3, the sensed pin is connected to the third high potential VH3. The feet maintain the same potential.

據此,便可以藉由感測第二對接腳中其中一接腳判斷出連接於4線電阻式觸控面板22中相同層的接腳。熟知相關技術者亦可推知,可輪流或同時感測第二對接腳,來判斷出連接於4線電阻式觸控面板22中相同層的接腳。Accordingly, it is possible to determine the pin connected to the same layer in the 4-wire resistive touch panel 22 by sensing one of the second pair of pins. Those skilled in the art can also infer that the second pair of pins can be sensed in turn or simultaneously to determine the pins connected to the same layer in the 4-wire resistive touch panel 22.

然而,在感測第二對接腳時,並且觸控面板20被觸碰時,被提供第三高電位VH3與被提供第三低電位VH3的接腳間為通路,因此上述判斷出連接於4線電阻式觸控面板22中相同層的接腳的方式就不見得適用。特別是利用上述電性元件M來提供高電位或低電位時,第二對接腳可能皆趨近相同電位或 為相同邏輯準位。據此,在本發明之一較佳範例中,如第九A圖與第九B圖所示,更包含判斷4線電阻式觸控面板22是否正被觸碰。首先,如步驟910所示,在四接腳連接一4線電阻式觸控面板22時分別提供一第三高電位VH3與一第三低電位VL3於連接4線電阻式觸控面板22不同層的一第一對接腳,其中第三高電位VH3或第四低電位VL3係經由電性元件M所提供,電性元件M之電阻值大於4線電阻式觸控面板22。接下來如步驟920所示,感測連接4線電阻式觸控面板22之另外一第二對接腳的訊號。之後,如步驟930所示,在第二對接腳的訊號同時接近第三高電位VH3或第三低電位VL3時,判斷出4線電阻式觸控面板22正被觸碰中。並且,如步驟940所示,在4線電阻式觸控面板22沒被觸碰時,依據第二對接腳中至少一接腳的訊號,判斷出連接於4線電阻式觸控面板22中相同層的接腳。However, when the second pair of pins are sensed, and the touch panel 20 is touched, the third high potential VH3 is provided to be connected to the pin provided with the third low potential VH3, so the above determination is connected to 4 The manner of the pins of the same layer in the line resistive touch panel 22 is not necessarily applicable. In particular, when the above-mentioned electrical component M is used to provide a high potential or a low potential, the second pair of pins may approach the same potential or For the same logic level. Accordingly, in a preferred embodiment of the present invention, as shown in the ninth A and ninth B, it is further included whether or not the 4-wire resistive touch panel 22 is being touched. First, as shown in step 910, a fourth high potential VH3 and a third low potential VL3 are respectively connected to the different layers of the 4-wire resistive touch panel 22 when the four-wire resistive touch panel 22 is connected to the four pins. A first pair of pins, wherein the third high potential VH3 or the fourth low potential VL3 is provided via the electrical component M, and the electrical component M has a resistance greater than the 4-wire resistive touch panel 22. Next, as shown in step 920, the signal connecting the other second pair of pins of the 4-wire resistive touch panel 22 is sensed. Then, as shown in step 930, when the signal of the second pair of pins approaches the third high potential VH3 or the third low potential VL3, it is determined that the 4-wire resistive touch panel 22 is being touched. In addition, as shown in step 940, when the 4-wire resistive touch panel 22 is not touched, it is determined that the same is connected to the 4-wire resistive touch panel 22 according to the signal of at least one of the second pair of pins. The pins of the layer.

在本發明之一較佳範例中,亦可以是在第二對接腳的訊號同時為一高邏輯準位或同時為一低邏輯準位時,判斷出4線電阻式觸控面板22正被觸碰中。在本發明之另一較佳範例中,可以是在電性元件M與經由電性元件M被提供高電位接腳間訊號趨近低電位或為一低邏輯準位時,判斷出4線電阻式觸控面板22正被觸碰中。同理,亦可以是在電性元件M與經由電性元件M被提供低電位接腳間訊號趨近高電位或為一高 邏輯準位時,判斷出4線電阻式觸控面板22正被觸碰中。換言之,係在電性元件M與第一接腳中連接電性元件M之接腳間訊號不同於提供給電性元件M之訊號時,判斷出該4線電阻式觸控面板正被觸碰中。In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, when the signal of the second pair of pins is simultaneously a high logic level or a low logic level, it is determined that the 4-wire resistive touch panel 22 is being touched. Hit. In another preferred embodiment of the present invention, the 4-wire resistance may be determined when the electrical component M and the high-potential pin provided by the electrical component M approach a low potential or a low logic level. The touch panel 22 is being touched. Similarly, it is also possible that the signal between the electrical component M and the low potential pin via the electrical component M approaches a high potential or is high. At the logic level, it is judged that the 4-wire resistive touch panel 22 is being touched. In other words, when the signal between the pin connecting the electrical component M and the first pin to the electrical component M is different from the signal supplied to the electrical component M, it is determined that the 4-wire resistive touch panel is being touched. .

兩接腳訊號的比較可以是同時或輪流感測後比較是否為相同或相近,亦可以同時經過比較器、減法器或差動放大器來判斷是否相同或相近,本發明包含但不限於上述判斷方式,熟知相關技術者可推知其他可應用於本發明之各具體實施例判斷方式。在本發明另一較佳範例中,可依據電性元件M與被提供高電位之接腳間訊號的邏輯準位判斷4線電阻式觸控面板22中相同層的接腳是否正被觸碰中。The comparison between the two pin signals may be whether the comparison is the same or similar at the same time or after the round of influenza test, and may also be judged whether the same or similar by the comparator, the subtractor or the differential amplifier at the same time, and the present invention includes but is not limited to the above judgment manner. Those skilled in the art will be able to deduce other methods of determining the specific embodiments of the present invention. In another preferred embodiment of the present invention, whether the pin of the same layer in the 4-wire resistive touch panel 22 is being touched can be determined according to the logic level of the electrical component M and the signal between the pins that provide the high potential. in.

據此,只要連接4線電阻式觸控面板22不同層的第一對接腳為已知,就算4線電阻式觸控空面板22可能被觸碰,只要等到4線電阻式觸控空面板22沒被觸碰時,連接於4線電阻式觸控面板22中相同層的接腳接便可以被判斷出來。Accordingly, as long as the first pair of pins connecting the different layers of the 4-wire resistive touch panel 22 are known, even if the 4-wire resistive touch panel 22 may be touched, it is only necessary to wait until the 4-wire resistive touch panel 22 When not touched, the pin connection connected to the same layer in the 4-wire resistive touch panel 22 can be judged.

本具體實施例中的四接腳包含但不限於獨立的四接腳,或是上述五接腳中的前四接腳或後四接腳,熟知相關技藝者可推知四接腳亦可以包含在其他數量的複數個接腳中,本發明並不加以限制。The four pins in this embodiment include, but are not limited to, independent four pins, or the first four pins or the last four pins of the above five pins. Those skilled in the art can infer that the four pins can also be included in the four pins. The invention is not limited in the number of other pins.

本具體實施例係建立在連接4線電阻式觸控面板22不同層的第一對接腳為已知的基礎上,據此,本發明之第五具體實 施例係一種偵測4線電阻式觸控面板接線方式的方法,如第十圖所示,能夠判斷出連接4線電阻式觸控面板22不同層的第一對接腳。首先,如步驟1010所示,在四接腳連接一4線電阻式觸控面板22時分別提供一第四高電位與一第四低電位於連接4線電阻式觸控面板22之兩接腳。再接下來,如步驟1020所示,依據被提供第四高電位與第四低電位之接腳間是斷路還是通路,來判斷出連接4線電阻式觸控面板22不同層的第一對接腳。The specific embodiment is based on the fact that the first pair of pins connecting the different layers of the 4-wire resistive touch panel 22 are known, and accordingly, the fifth embodiment of the present invention The embodiment is a method for detecting the wiring manner of the 4-wire resistive touch panel. As shown in the tenth figure, the first pair of pins connecting the different layers of the 4-wire resistive touch panel 22 can be determined. First, as shown in step 1010, when a four-wire resistive touch panel 22 is connected to the four pins, a fourth high potential and a fourth low power are respectively provided to connect the two pins of the 4-wire resistive touch panel 22. . Then, as shown in step 1020, the first pair of pins connecting the different layers of the 4-wire resistive touch panel 22 are determined according to whether the pins connected to the fourth high potential and the fourth low potential are open or through. .

在本發明之一較佳範例中,第四高電位與第四低電位的提供、及被提供第四高電位與第四低電位之接腳間是斷路還是通路的判斷係由上述偵測單元40來執行,如第十一A圖所示。如果被提供第四高電位VH4與第四低電位VL4之接腳連接4線電阻式觸控面板22不同層,在觸控面板20沒被觸碰時,被提供第四高電位VH4與第四低電位VL4之接腳間為斷路。相反地,如第十一B圖所示,如果被提供第四高電位VH4與第四低電位VL4之接腳連接4線電阻式觸控面板22相同層,在觸控面板20沒被觸碰時,被提供第四高電位VH4與第四低電位VL4之接腳間為通路,因此可以判斷出連接4線電阻式觸控面板22不同層的第一對接腳。In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the provision of the fourth high potential and the fourth low potential, and the determination of whether the fourth high potential and the fourth low potential are connected to the open circuit or the path are determined by the detecting unit 40 to perform, as shown in Figure 11A. If the pin of the fourth high potential VH4 and the fourth low potential VL4 is connected to the different layers of the 4-line resistive touch panel 22, when the touch panel 20 is not touched, the fourth high potential VH4 and the fourth are provided. The pin of the low potential VL4 is open. On the contrary, as shown in FIG. 11B, if the fourth high potential VH4 and the fourth low potential VL4 are connected to the same layer of the 4-wire resistive touch panel 22, the touch panel 20 is not touched. When the pins of the fourth high potential VH4 and the fourth low potential VL4 are provided as paths, it is possible to determine the first pair of pins connecting the different layers of the 4-wire resistive touch panel 22.

換言之,感測單元40係分別提供高電位與低電位給一對接腳,藉由判斷被提供高電為與低電位的接腳間是否為斷路, 來判斷出被提供高電位與低電位的接腳是否連接於4線電阻式觸控面板22相同層。若被提供高電位與低電位的接腳連接於4線電阻式觸控面板22相同層,則被提供高電位或低電位的接腳與另一對接腳之任一連接於4線電阻式觸控面板22不同層。在連接於4線電阻式觸控面板22相同層的接腳都為已知時,便可省去進一步的偵測。In other words, the sensing unit 40 provides a high potential and a low potential to each pair of pins, respectively, by determining whether the high-powered low-potential pin is disconnected. It is determined whether the pin provided with the high potential and the low potential is connected to the same layer of the 4-wire resistive touch panel 22. If the pin provided with high potential and low potential is connected to the same layer of the 4-wire resistive touch panel 22, the pin provided with high potential or low potential is connected to the other pair of pins to the 4-wire resistive touch. The control panel 22 has different layers. When the pins connected to the same layer of the 4-wire resistive touch panel 22 are known, further detection can be omitted.

若被提供高電位與低電位的接腳連接於4線電阻式觸控面板22不同層,感測單元40可分別提供高電位與低電位給一對連接於4線電阻式觸控面板22不同層的接腳,並且感測另一對接腳之至少一接腳。假設4線電阻式觸控面板22不會被觸碰,被提供高電位與低電位的接腳間為斷路,因此被感測的接腳之訊號若為高電位,則被感測的接腳與被提供高電位的接腳連接於4線電阻式觸控面板22相同層,若感測的接腳之訊號若為低電位,則被感測的接腳與被提供低電位的接腳連接於4線電阻式觸控面板22相同層。如先前所述,接腳的感測可以是直接由接腳之訊號的邏輯準位來判斷,不一定需要量測出實際的訊號值。If the high-potential and low-potential pins are connected to different layers of the 4-wire resistive touch panel 22, the sensing unit 40 can provide a high potential and a low potential respectively to connect the pair of the 4-wire resistive touch panel 22 The pins of the layer and sense at least one of the other pair of pins. Assuming that the 4-wire resistive touch panel 22 is not touched, the pin between the high potential and the low potential is disconnected, so if the signal of the sensed pin is high, the sensed pin is sensed. The pin that is provided with a high potential is connected to the same layer of the 4-wire resistive touch panel 22, and if the signal of the sensed pin is low, the sensed pin is connected to the pin that is provided with a low potential. The same layer is on the 4-wire resistive touch panel 22. As described earlier, the sensing of the pin can be directly determined by the logic level of the signal of the pin, and it is not necessary to measure the actual signal value.

本發明之第六具體實施例係一種偵測5線電阻式觸控面板接線方式的方法,如第十二圖所示。首先,如步驟1210所示,在五接腳連接一5線電阻式觸控面板24時,分別提供一第五高電位與一第五低電位於連接5線電阻式觸控面板24之 同一層相鄰角落之一第一對相鄰接腳。接下來,如步驟1220所示,依據連接5線電阻式觸控面板24之同一層之另外一第二對相鄰接腳之訊號,來偵測連接5線電阻式觸控面板24之同一層之四接腳與5線電阻式觸控面板24之同一層被連接之四角落的連接關係。A sixth embodiment of the present invention is a method for detecting a wiring pattern of a 5-wire resistive touch panel, as shown in FIG. First, as shown in step 1210, when a 5-wire resistive touch panel 24 is connected to the five pins, a fifth high potential and a fifth low power are respectively provided to connect the 5-wire resistive touch panel 24. One of the adjacent pairs of adjacent corners of the same layer. Next, as shown in step 1220, the same layer of the 5-wire resistive touch panel 24 is detected according to the signal of another second pair of adjacent pins connected to the same layer of the 5-wire resistive touch panel 24. The fourth pin is connected to the four corners of the same layer of the 5-wire resistive touch panel 24.

在本發明之一較佳範例中,第五高電位與第五低電位的提供、及判斷連接第二對相鄰接腳之訊號係由上述偵測單元40來執行,如第十三圖所示。In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the supply of the fifth high potential and the fifth low potential, and the determination of the signal connecting the second pair of adjacent pins are performed by the detecting unit 40, as shown in FIG. Show.

由於被提供第五高電位VH5與第五低電位VL5的第一對相鄰接腳連接5線電阻式觸控面板24之同一層相鄰角落,因此第二對相鄰接腳中訊號較大的接腳與第一對相鄰接腳中被提供第五高電位VH5的接腳連接相鄰角落,並且第二對相鄰接腳中訊號較小的接腳與第二對相鄰接腳中被提供該第五低電位VL5的接腳連接相鄰角落。據此,便可以判斷出連接5線電阻式觸控面板24之同一層之四接腳與5線電阻式觸控面板24之同一層被連接之四角落的連接關係。Since the first pair of adjacent pins of the fifth high potential VH5 and the fifth low potential VL5 are connected to the same adjacent corners of the 5-line resistive touch panel 24, the signals in the second pair of adjacent pins are larger. The pin of the first pair of adjacent pins is connected to the adjacent corner by the pin provided with the fifth high potential VH5, and the pin with the smaller signal and the second pair of adjacent pins of the second pair of adjacent pins The pin provided with the fifth low potential VL5 is connected to the adjacent corner. Accordingly, it can be determined that the connection between the four pins of the same layer of the 5-wire resistive touch panel 24 and the four corners of the same layer of the 5-wire resistive touch panel 24 are connected.

上述5線電阻式觸控面板接線方式的方法與裝置係建立在第一對相鄰接腳為已知的前提下。因此在本發明之一較佳範例中,更包含判斷第一對相鄰接腳的方法,如第十四圖所示。首先,如步驟1410所示,在五接腳連接一5線電阻式觸控面板24時,分別提供一第六高電位與一第六低電位於連接5線 電阻式觸控面板24之同一層之一第三對接腳。接下來,如步驟1420所示,依據連接5線電阻式觸控面板24之同一層之另外一第四對接腳之訊號,來偵測出第一對相鄰接腳。The method and apparatus for the above-mentioned 5-wire resistive touch panel wiring method are based on the premise that the first pair of adjacent pins are known. Therefore, in a preferred embodiment of the present invention, there is further included a method of determining a first pair of adjacent pins, as shown in FIG. First, as shown in step 1410, when a 5-wire resistive touch panel 24 is connected to the five pins, a sixth high potential and a sixth low power are respectively provided to connect the 5 lines. One of the third pair of pins of the same layer of the resistive touch panel 24. Next, as shown in step 1420, the first pair of adjacent pins are detected according to the signal of the other fourth pair of pins connected to the same layer of the 5-wire resistive touch panel 24.

在本發明之另一較佳範例中,第六高電位與第六低電位的提供、及感測連接第四對接腳之訊號係由上述偵測單元40來執行,如第十五圖所示。In another preferred embodiment of the present invention, the sixth high potential and the sixth low potential are provided, and the signal for connecting the fourth pair of pins is connected by the detecting unit 40, as shown in FIG. .

第三對接腳可以是連接5線電阻式觸控面板24之同一層之四角落的任一對接腳,並且第四對接腳為另一對接腳。無論第三對接腳是不是連接5線電阻式觸控面板24之同一層之相鄰角落時,第四對接腳中訊號較大的接腳與第四對接腳中被提供第六高電位VH6的接腳連接相鄰角落,並且第四對接腳中訊號較小的接腳與第四對接腳中被提供第六低電位VL6的接腳連接相鄰角落。The third pair of pins may be any pair of pins that connect the four corners of the same layer of the 5-wire resistive touch panel 24, and the fourth pair of pins are the other pair of pins. When the third pair of pins is connected to the adjacent corner of the same layer of the 5-wire resistive touch panel 24, the signal with the larger signal and the sixth higher potential VH6 of the fourth pair of pins are provided. The pins are connected to adjacent corners, and the pins of the fourth pair of pins that are smaller in signal are connected to the adjacent corners of the pins of the fourth pair of pins that are provided with the sixth low potential VL6.

如果第四對接腳的訊號相同或相近,則被提供第六高電位VH6與第六低電位VL6的接腳連接沒有相鄰角落,並且5線電阻式觸控面板24大體上呈一正方形,則第四對接腳與第三對接腳兩兩相鄰。If the signals of the fourth pair of pins are the same or similar, the pins connected to the sixth high potential VH6 and the sixth low potential VL6 are not adjacent corners, and the 5-wire resistive touch panel 24 is substantially square. The fourth pair of pins are adjacent to the third pair of pins.

在本發明之一最佳模式中,高電位係由電性元件M所提供。例如,高電位係由電性元件M所提供給第一接腳11,因此在判斷觸控面板20是4線電阻式觸控面板22還是5線電阻式觸控面板24時,可以依據電性元件M與第一接腳11間訊 號的邏輯準位迅速判斷出來。同樣地,在觸控面板20是4線電阻式觸控面板22時,可以依據電性元件M與第一接腳11間訊號的邏輯準位迅速判斷4線電阻式觸控面板22是連接於前四接腳還是後四接腳。In one of the best modes of the invention, the high potential is provided by the electrical component M. For example, the high potential is provided by the electrical component M to the first pin 11 , so when determining whether the touch panel 20 is a 4-wire resistive touch panel 22 or a 5-wire resistive touch panel 24, it can be based on electrical properties. Element M and first pin 11 The logical level of the number is quickly judged. Similarly, when the touch panel 20 is a 4-wire resistive touch panel 22, the 4-wire resistive touch panel 22 can be quickly connected according to the logic level of the signal between the electrical component M and the first pin 11. The first four pins are the last four pins.

如先前所述,兩接腳訊號的比較可以是同時或輪流感測後比較是否為相同或相近,亦可以同時經過比較器、減法器或差動放大器來判斷是否相同或相近,本發明包含但不限於上述判斷方式,熟知相關技術者可推知其他可應用於本發明之各具體實施例判斷方式。As described earlier, the comparison of the two pin signals may be the same or similar after the simultaneous or round influenza test, or may be judged whether the same or similar by the comparator, the subtractor or the differential amplifier at the same time, and the present invention includes It is not limited to the above-described judging manner, and those skilled in the art can infer other methods for judging the specific embodiments of the present invention.

在本發明之各實施例中,第一高電位至第六高電位包含但不限於相同的電位,亦可以部份或全部為不同的電位,本發明並不加以限制。同樣地,第一低電位至第六低電位包含但不限於相同的電位,亦可以部份或全部為不同的電位,本發明並不加以限制。In various embodiments of the present invention, the first high potential to the sixth high potential include but are not limited to the same potential, and may be partially or entirely different potentials, and the invention is not limited thereto. Similarly, the first low potential to the sixth low potential include but are not limited to the same potential, and may be partially or entirely different potentials, and the invention is not limited thereto.

以上所述僅為本發明之較佳實施例而已,並非用以限定本發明之申請專利範圍;凡其他為脫離本發明所揭示之精神下所完成之等效改變或修飾,均應包含在下述之申請專利範圍。The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention, and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention; all other equivalent changes or modifications made in the spirit of the present invention should be included in the following.
