互電容式觸控板及組合式互電容觸控板Mutual capacitive touch panel and combined mutual capacitance touch panel

本發明係關於一種觸摸感應之輸入裝置,特別是關於用互電容作為感應器件之觸摸輸入裝置。The present invention relates to a touch-sensitive input device, and more particularly to a touch input device using a mutual capacitance as an inductive device.

觸控板是現在被廣泛應用的一種觸摸傳感輸入裝置。按照觸摸感應原理,現有技術觸控板包括電阻式觸控板、電容式觸控板、表面紅外觸控板等等。其中,電阻式觸控板因為其低成本、易實現、控制簡單等優點流行多年。近來,電容式觸控板以其透光率高、耐磨損、耐環境溫度變化、耐環境濕度變化、壽命長、可實現如多點觸摸的高級複雜功能而受到大眾的歡迎。The touchpad is a touch sensing input device that is now widely used. According to the principle of touch sensing, the prior art touch panel includes a resistive touch panel, a capacitive touch panel, a surface infrared touch panel, and the like. Among them, the resistive touch panel has been popular for many years because of its low cost, easy implementation, and simple control. Recently, capacitive touch panels have been popularly welcomed by the public for their high light transmittance, wear resistance, environmental temperature resistance, environmental humidity resistance, long life, and advanced complex functions such as multi-touch.

利用電容變化作為傳感原理由來已久,為使觸控板有效工作,需要一個透明的電容傳感陣列。當人體或者如手寫筆的專用觸摸裝置接近電容的感應電極時,會改變傳感控制電路檢測到電容值的大小,根據觸摸區域內電容值變化的分布,就可以判斷出人體或者專用觸摸裝置在觸摸區域內的觸摸情况。按照電容形成的方式,現有技術觸控板包括自電容式觸控板和互電容式觸控板。自電容式觸控板是利用傳感電極與交流或直流電憑電極形成的電容值變化作為觸摸傳感的信號;互電容式觸控板是利用兩個電極間形成的電容值變化作為觸摸傳感的信號,有時也把互電容稱為投射電容。The use of capacitance changes as a sensing principle has been around for a long time. In order for the touchpad to work effectively, a transparent capacitive sensing array is required. When the human body or a special touch device such as a stylus approaches the sensing electrode of the capacitor, the magnitude of the capacitance value detected by the sensing control circuit is changed, and according to the distribution of the capacitance value change in the touch region, it can be determined that the human body or the dedicated touch device is Touch the touch in the area. According to the manner in which the capacitor is formed, the prior art touch panel includes a self-capacitive touch panel and a mutual capacitive touch panel. The self-capacitive touch panel utilizes a change in capacitance value formed by the sensing electrode and the alternating current or direct current electrode as a touch sensing signal; the mutual capacitive touch panel utilizes a change in capacitance value formed between the two electrodes as a touch sensing The signal is sometimes referred to as a projected capacitor.

如第11圖所示,現有技術互電容式觸控板包括觸摸平面100' ,不在同一平面的驅動線210' 和傳感線310' ,以及夾在該驅動線210' 和傳感線310' 之間的介質平面910' 。如第11-1圖和第11-2圖所示,各該驅動線210' 互相平行,各該傳感線310' 互相平行,並且該驅動線210' 與傳感線310' 在空間垂直交叉。該驅動線210' 電連接激勵信號,該傳感線310' 電連接傳感控制電路,從而在驅動線210' 與傳感線310' 間形成互電容。在該驅動線210' 與傳感線310' 交叉之處形成的互電容C是傳感控制電路檢測的主要電容數據信號。如第11-3圖所示,該互電容C包括驅動線210' 與傳感線310' 底部之間的電容CB和驅動線210' 與傳感線310' 頂部之間的電容CT ,即C=CB +CT 。如第11-4圖所示,當手指150' 接觸觸摸平面100' 並在觸摸區域內時,該手指150' 相當於在傳感線310' 之上的一個電極,改變了驅動線210' 與傳感線310' 頂部之間電場,這種改變可以看作手指150' 將驅動線210' 到傳感線310' 頂部的電場線吸走,從而使CT 發生變化,導致該互電容C發生變化。該傳感控制電路檢測觸摸平面100' 整個觸摸區域內的互電容C變化情况,以確定觸摸區域內被觸摸點的位置和強度。透過合理設計傳感控制電路,該傳感控制電路能够同時檢測觸摸平面100' 上發生的多點觸摸之分布情况,實現傳感多點觸摸功能。所述CT 值的變化範圍在未發生觸摸時的互電容C中所占比例被稱為有效電容率。As shown in FIG. 11, the prior art mutual capacitive touch panel includes a touch plane 100 ' , a drive line 210 ' and a sense line 310 ' that are not in the same plane, and are sandwiched between the drive line 210 ' and the sense line 310 '. Between the media plane 910 ' . As shown in FIGS. 11-1 and 11-2, each of the driving lines 210 ' is parallel to each other, and the sensing lines 310 ' are parallel to each other, and the driving lines 210 ' and the sensing lines 310 ' vertically intersect in space. . The drive line 210 'is electrically connected to the excitation signal, the sensing line 310' is electrically connected to the sensor control circuit, so as to form a mutual capacitance between the drive line 210 'and the sensing line 310'. The mutual capacitance C formed at the intersection of the drive line 210 ' and the sense line 310 ' is the main capacitance data signal detected by the sensing control circuit. As shown in FIG. 11-3, the mutual capacitance C includes driving lines 210 'and the sensing lines 310' and the drive line capacitance CB between the bottom 210 'and the sensing line 310' between the top of the capacitance C T, i.e., C=C B +C T . As shown in Figures 11-4, when the finger 150 ' contacts the touch plane 100 ' and is within the touch area, the finger 150 ' corresponds to an electrode above the sensing line 310 ' , changing the drive line 210 ' with The electric field between the tops of the sensing line 310 ' can be seen as the finger 150 ' sucking away the electric field lines from the top of the driving line 210 ' to the sensing line 310 ' , thereby causing the C T to change, causing the mutual capacitance C to occur. Variety. The sensing control circuit detects a change in the mutual capacitance C within the entire touch area of the touch plane 100 ' to determine the position and intensity of the touched point within the touch area. Through reasonable design of the sensing control circuit, the sensing control circuit can simultaneously detect the distribution of multi-touch generated on the touch plane 100 ' , and realize the sensing multi-touch function. The proportion of the change in the C T value in the mutual capacitance C when no touch occurs is referred to as the effective permittivity.

如第11圖所示,當現有技術觸控板被觸摸時,該驅動 線210' 與傳感線310' 底部之間的電容CB不受觸摸影響,由於該傳感線310' 底部與驅動線210' 正對,使該電容CB 在互電容C中所占比例較大,從而令該有效電容率較低。現有技術互感式觸控板的有效電容率一般只能達到30%左右,造成該觸控板信噪比低,需要設計複雜的傳感控制電路以精確判斷人體或者專用觸摸裝置以針對該觸控板的觸摸情况,增加了該觸控板的設計和製造成本。As shown in FIG. 11, when the prior art touch panel is touched, the capacitance CB between the driving line 210 ' and the bottom of the sensing line 310 ' is not affected by the touch, since the sensing line 310 ' bottom and the driving line 210 ' is right, so that the capacitance C B accounts for a large proportion in the mutual capacitance C, so that the effective capacitance ratio is low. The effective permittivity of the prior art mutual-sensing touch panel can only reach about 30%, which results in low signal-to-noise ratio of the touch panel. It is necessary to design a complex sensing control circuit to accurately determine the human body or a dedicated touch device for the touch. The touch of the board increases the design and manufacturing cost of the touchpad.

In this embodiment, there are 25 rectangular driving electrodes 211; each of the sensing electrodes 310 is a rectangular sensing electrode 311. In the present embodiment, there are 36 rectangular sensing electrodes 311.

如第1-1圖所示,該矩形傳感電極311透過傳感電極 連接線320被分組串聯成6組傳感電極組340,每組傳感電極組340中的各矩形傳感電極311的幾何中心和各矩形傳感電極310連接線320在同一直線上,而且各傳感電極組340內的傳感電極連接線320所在的直線互相平行。各傳感電極組340借助傳感電極引出線330與觸控板外設的傳感控制模塊700電連接。As shown in FIG. 1-1, the rectangular sensing electrode 311 passes through the sensing electrode. The connecting lines 320 are grouped into a group of six sensing electrode groups 340, and the geometric centers of the rectangular sensing electrodes 311 in each of the sensing electrode groups 340 and the rectangular sensing electrodes 310 connecting lines 320 are on the same line, and each The lines in which the sensing electrode connection lines 320 in the sensing electrode group 340 are located are parallel to each other. Each sensing electrode group 340 is electrically connected to the sensing control module 700 of the touch panel peripheral via the sensing electrode lead line 330.

如第1-2圖所示,該矩形驅動電極211透過驅動電極連接線220被分組串聯成5組驅動電極組240,每組驅動電極組240中的各矩形驅動電極211的幾何中心和各驅動電極連接線220在同一直線上,而且各驅動電極組240內的驅動電極連接線220所在的直線互相平行。各驅動電極組240借助驅動電極引出線230與觸控板外設的激勵信號模塊600電連接。As shown in FIG. 1-2, the rectangular driving electrodes 211 are grouped in series through the driving electrode connection lines 220 into five groups of driving electrode groups 240, and the geometric centers and driving directions of the rectangular driving electrodes 211 in each group of driving electrode groups 240 are shown. The electrode connection lines 220 are on the same straight line, and the straight lines in which the drive electrode connection lines 220 in the respective drive electrode groups 240 are located are parallel to each other. Each of the driving electrode groups 240 is electrically connected to the excitation signal module 600 of the touch panel peripheral via the driving electrode lead wires 230.

如第1-3圖所示,各該矩形傳感電極311分布在傳感層300中與驅動層200中各該矩形驅動電極211相互間空隙區域正對著的區域內,令該矩形驅動電極211和傳感電極311一起填充該觸控板的觸摸區域110。該驅動電極連接線220與傳感電極連接線320互相垂直。As shown in FIG. 1-3, each of the rectangular sensing electrodes 311 is distributed in a region of the sensing layer 300 opposite to the gap region between the rectangular driving electrodes 211 of the driving layer 200, and the rectangular driving electrode is arranged. The 211 and the sensing electrode 311 together fill the touch area 110 of the touch panel. The driving electrode connection line 220 and the sensing electrode connection line 320 are perpendicular to each other.

如第1-3圖和第1-4圖所示,在整個觸摸區域110內該矩形傳感電極311所占區域與矩形驅動電極211所占區域互補,使矩形傳感電極311與矩形驅動電極211不會出現正對的位置關係。As shown in FIGS. 1-3 and 1-4, the area occupied by the rectangular sensing electrode 311 is complementary to the area occupied by the rectangular driving electrode 211 in the entire touch region 110, so that the rectangular sensing electrode 311 and the rectangular driving electrode 211 will not have a correct positional relationship.

對於第1-4圖所示的O1 點,當沒有對O1 點觸摸時,該O1 點的電場分布情况如第1-5圖所示;當手指150對 O1 點觸摸時,該O1 點的電場分布情况如第1-6圖所示。由於矩形傳感電極311底部沒有正對矩形驅動電極211,所以矩形傳感電極311底部與矩形驅動電極211之間形成的電容CB 的電容值相對現有技術有大幅减小,即該矩形傳感電極311底部與矩形驅動電極211之間形成的電容CB 在O1 點的互電容C中所占比例大幅減小,從而有效提高了互電容式觸控板的互電容C的有效電容率。For shown in FIG 1-4 O 1:00, 1:00 when no touch to the O, the electric field distribution in the case of this one point O as shown in FIG. 1-5; and when the finger 150 touches one point O on the The electric field distribution at point O 1 is shown in Figures 1-6. Since the bottom of the rectangular sensing electrode 311 does not have the rectangular driving electrode 211, the capacitance of the capacitor C B formed between the bottom of the rectangular sensing electrode 311 and the rectangular driving electrode 211 is greatly reduced compared with the prior art, that is, the rectangular sensing The capacitance C B formed between the bottom of the electrode 311 and the rectangular driving electrode 211 is greatly reduced in the mutual capacitance C of the O 1 point, thereby effectively increasing the effective permittivity of the mutual capacitance C of the mutual capacitive touch panel.

本發明第二實施例,如第2圖所示,該驅動層200和傳感層300與第一實施例完全相同,只是加入了屏蔽層400。該屏蔽層400設置於驅動層200和傳感層300中位於下方的一層的上方、下方或者嵌套在該層內;該屏蔽層400包括用透明導電材料製成的平板屏蔽電極410,各該屏蔽電極410正對著該驅動層200和傳感層300中位於上方的一層中各電極所占區域。In the second embodiment of the present invention, as shown in FIG. 2, the driving layer 200 and the sensing layer 300 are identical to the first embodiment except that the shielding layer 400 is added. The shielding layer 400 is disposed above or below the underlying layer of the driving layer 200 and the sensing layer 300 or nested within the layer; the shielding layer 400 includes a flat shielding electrode 410 made of a transparent conductive material, each of which The shield electrode 410 faces the area occupied by the electrodes in the upper layer of the driving layer 200 and the sensing layer 300.

在本實施例中,該傳感層300位於驅動層200的上方,因此,如第2-1圖所示,各該屏蔽電極410分布在屏蔽層400中正對著該傳感層300中各傳感電極310所占的區域,並且被連接成6個屏蔽電極410,換個角度說,該屏蔽電極410分布在屏蔽層400中與驅動層200的各驅動電極210相互之間的空隙區域正對著的區域。In this embodiment, the sensing layer 300 is located above the driving layer 200. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 2-1, each of the shielding electrodes 410 is distributed in the shielding layer 400 and directly opposite to the sensing layer 300. The area occupied by the sensing electrode 310 is connected to the six shielding electrodes 410. In other words, the shielding electrode 410 is distributed in the shielding layer 400 and the gap region between the driving electrodes 210 of the driving layer 200 is opposite to each other. Area.

如第2一2圖所示,該屏蔽電極410所占區域與矩形驅動電極211互補,本實施例中,將屏蔽層400與驅動層200嵌套在一起,如第2-3圖所示,即屏蔽層400與驅動層200在同一層中。As shown in FIG. 2-2, the area occupied by the shield electrode 410 is complementary to the rectangular driving electrode 211. In this embodiment, the shielding layer 400 and the driving layer 200 are nested together, as shown in FIG. 2-3. That is, the shield layer 400 is in the same layer as the drive layer 200.

對於第2-3圖所示的O2 點,當沒有對O2 點觸摸時,該O2 點的電場分布情况如第2-4圖所示;當手指150對O2 點觸摸時,該O2 點的電場分布情况如第2-5圖所示。由第2-4圖和第2-5圖可見,該屏蔽電極410的作用在於改變矩形傳感電極311底部的電場,使矩形傳感電極311底部與矩形驅動電極211之間形成的電容CB 進一步减小,這可以理解為,屏蔽電極410將矩形驅動電極211與矩形傳感電極311底部電場中的部分電場線吸走。For the O 2 point shown in Figure 2-3, when there is no O 2 point touch, the electric field distribution of the O 2 point is as shown in Figure 2-4; when the finger 150 touches the O 2 point, the The electric field distribution at point O 2 is shown in Figure 2-5. As can be seen from FIGS. 2-4 and 2-5, the shield electrode 410 functions to change the electric field at the bottom of the rectangular sensing electrode 311 so that the capacitance C B formed between the bottom of the rectangular sensing electrode 311 and the rectangular driving electrode 211 Further, it can be understood that the shield electrode 410 sucks away a part of the electric field lines in the electric field at the bottom of the rectangular drive electrode 211 and the rectangular sensing electrode 311.

該屏蔽電極410可以是電懸空的,即不與互電容式觸控板外設的任何激勵信號、交流地和直流源電連接,也可以採用如下的方案:如第3圖所示,該屏蔽層400還包括屏蔽電極引出導線430,借助該屏蔽電極引出導線430,所有屏蔽電極410接地,或者與觸控板外設的直流源800電連接。另外,為减少該屏蔽電極引出導線430的數量,一般用一條或者兩條屏蔽電極引出導線430把所有的屏蔽電極410電連接至直流源800,或者直接接交流地;同時儘量避免屏蔽電極引出導線430與驅動電極引出導線230和傳感電極引出導線330交叉。對於本發明第二實施例,第3圖顯示出了四種情况以體現四種屏蔽電極引出線430的引出情况,其中,第3-1圖和第3-2圖示出用兩條屏蔽電極引出導線430將所有屏蔽電極410電連接交流地或者直流源800;第3-3圖和第3-4圖顯示出用一條屏蔽電極引出導線430將所有屏蔽電極410電連接交流地。對於本發明其它具有屏蔽層400的實施例,該屏蔽電極410接 地或者與觸控板外設的直流源800電連接方式可以採用第4圖所示的任何一種,也可以採用其它一切使該屏蔽電極引出線430與驅動電極引出線230在空間互不相交的其它方式。The shielding electrode 410 can be electrically suspended, that is, not electrically connected to any excitation signal, AC ground, and DC source of the mutual capacitive touch panel peripheral. The following scheme can also be adopted: as shown in FIG. 3, the shielding Layer 400 also includes a shield electrode lead wire 430 with which lead wire 430 is drawn, all of which are grounded or electrically coupled to a DC source 800 of the touchpad peripheral. In addition, in order to reduce the number of the shield electrode lead wires 430, one or two shield electrode lead wires 430 are generally used to electrically connect all the shield electrodes 410 to the DC source 800, or directly to the AC ground; and at the same time, the shield electrode lead wires are avoided as much as possible. 430 intersects the drive electrode lead wire 230 and the sense electrode lead wire 330. For the second embodiment of the present invention, FIG. 3 shows four cases to show the extraction of the four shield electrode lead lines 430, wherein the 3-1 and 3-2 illustrate the use of two shield electrodes. The lead wires 430 electrically connect all of the shield electrodes 410 to the AC ground or DC source 800; Figures 3-3 and 3-4 show that all of the shield electrodes 410 are electrically connected to the AC ground by a shield electrode lead wire 430. For other embodiments of the present invention having the shielding layer 400, the shielding electrode 410 is connected The ground connection or the DC source 800 of the touch panel peripheral can be electrically connected to any one of the four types shown in FIG. 4, or any other thing that makes the shield electrode lead-out line 430 and the driving electrode lead-out line 230 do not intersect each other in space. Other ways.

本發明第三實施例,如第4圖所示,該驅動層200和傳感層300與第一實施例完全相同,只是加入了次電極層500。該次電極層500設置於驅動層200和傳感層300中位於上方的一層的上方、下方或者嵌套在該層內;該次電極層500包括用透明導電材料製成的平板次電極510,各該次電極510正對著該驅動層200和傳感層300中位於下方的一層中各電極所占區域。In the third embodiment of the present invention, as shown in FIG. 4, the driving layer 200 and the sensing layer 300 are identical to the first embodiment except that the sub-electrode layer 500 is added. The sub-electrode layer 500 is disposed above or below the upper layer of the driving layer 200 and the sensing layer 300 or nested within the layer; the sub-electrode layer 500 includes a planar sub-electrode 510 made of a transparent conductive material. Each of the sub-electrodes 510 is opposite to the area occupied by each electrode in the lower layer of the driving layer 200 and the sensing layer 300.

本實施例該驅動層200位於傳感層300的下方,因此,如第4-1圖所示,各該次電極510正對著該驅動層200中各電極所占區域,換個角度說,該次電極510分布在次電極層500中與該驅動層200各驅動電極210所占區域正對著的區域內。在次電極層500中正對著驅動層200的某個驅動電極210的區域內,可以分布多個填滿該區域次電極510,也可以僅用一個次電極510;本實施例中,在次電極層500中每個與驅動電極210正對著的區域內就緊密排布了16個面積較小的次電極510,這種結構可以使電場分布更加均勻,有利於觸摸傳感。各該次電極510互不連接,而且不像普通的電極與任何信號激勵源、直流源或者地線電連接,處於電懸空狀態,因此被稱為次電極或者虛擬電池(Dummy Cell)。In this embodiment, the driving layer 200 is located below the sensing layer 300. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 4-1, each of the sub-electrodes 510 is opposite to the area occupied by each electrode in the driving layer 200. The sub-electrodes 510 are distributed in a region of the sub-electrode layer 500 that is directly opposite the region occupied by the driving electrodes 210 of the driving layer 200. In the region of the sub-electrode layer 500 facing a certain driving electrode 210 of the driving layer 200, a plurality of sub-electrodes 510 may be distributed to fill the region, or only one sub-electrode 510 may be used; in this embodiment, at the sub-electrode Sixteen sub-electrodes 510 having a small area are closely arranged in each of the layers 500 facing the driving electrodes 210. This structure can make the electric field distribution more uniform and facilitate touch sensing. Each of the sub-electrodes 510 are not connected to each other, and are not electrically connected to any signal excitation source, DC source or ground like ordinary electrodes, and are in an electrically floating state, and are therefore referred to as sub-electrodes or dummy cells.

如第4-2圖所示,該次電極410所占區域與矩形傳感電極311互補,本實施例中,將次電極層500與傳感層300嵌套在一起,如圖4-3所示,即次電極層500與傳感層300在同一層中。As shown in FIG. 4-2, the area occupied by the sub-electrode 410 is complementary to the rectangular sensing electrode 311. In this embodiment, the sub-electrode layer 500 and the sensing layer 300 are nested together, as shown in FIG. 4-3. It is shown that the secondary electrode layer 500 is in the same layer as the sensing layer 300.

對於第4-3圖所示的O3 點,當沒有對O3 點觸摸時,該O3 點的電場分布情况如第4-4圖所示;當手指150對O3 點觸摸時,該O3 點的電場分布情况如第5-5圖所示。由第4-4圖和第4-5圖可見,該次電極510的作用在於改變矩形傳感電極311頂部的電場,使矩形傳感電極311頂部與矩形驅動電極211之間形成的電容CT 進一步增大,以增加CT的變化範圍。這可以理解為,該次電極510增加矩形驅動電極211與矩形傳感電極311頂部電場中的電場線;另外,該次電極510的作用還在於使觸控板的透光率趨於一致。For the O 3 point shown in Figure 4-3, when there is no O 3 point touch, the electric field distribution of the O 3 point is as shown in Figure 4-4; when the finger 150 touches the O 3 point, The electric field distribution at point O 3 is shown in Figure 5-5. As can be seen from FIGS. 4-4 and 4-5, the secondary electrode 510 functions to change the electric field at the top of the rectangular sensing electrode 311 so that the capacitance C T formed between the top of the rectangular sensing electrode 311 and the rectangular driving electrode 211 Further increase to increase the range of variation of CT. It can be understood that the secondary electrode 510 increases the electric field lines in the electric field at the top of the rectangular driving electrode 211 and the rectangular sensing electrode 311; in addition, the secondary electrode 510 also functions to make the transmittance of the touch panel tend to be uniform.

本發明第四實施例,如第5圖所示,該驅動層200和傳感層300與第一實施例完全相同,只是加入了與第二實施例相同的屏蔽層400和與第三實施例相同的次電極層500。According to a fourth embodiment of the present invention, as shown in FIG. 5, the driving layer 200 and the sensing layer 300 are identical to the first embodiment except that the same shielding layer 400 as that of the second embodiment is added and the third embodiment is added. The same secondary electrode layer 500.

對於第5-1圖所示的O4 點,當沒有對O4 點觸摸時,該O4 點的電場分布情况如第5-2圖所示;當手指150對O4 點觸摸時,該O4 點的電場分布情况如第5-3圖所示。由第6-2圖和第5-3圖可見,在該屏蔽電極410和次電 極510的共同作用下,使矩形傳感電極311底部與矩形驅動電極211之間形成的電容CB 進一步减小,使矩形傳感電極311頂部與矩形驅動電極211之間形成的電容CT 進一步增大,從而進一步提高互電容C的有效電容率。For the O 4 point shown in Figure 5-1, when there is no O 4 point touch, the electric field distribution of the O 4 point is as shown in Figure 5-2; when the finger 150 touches the O 4 point, The electric field distribution at point 4 is shown in Figure 5-3. It can be seen from FIGS. 6-2 and 5-3 that, under the joint action of the shield electrode 410 and the sub-electrode 510, the capacitance C B formed between the bottom of the rectangular sensing electrode 311 and the rectangular driving electrode 211 is further reduced. The capacitance C T formed between the top of the rectangular sensing electrode 311 and the rectangular driving electrode 211 is further increased, thereby further increasing the effective permittivity of the mutual capacitance C.

In this embodiment, 25 diamond driving electrodes 212 are disposed. The diamond drive electrodes 212 are grouped into five groups of drive electrode groups 240 through the drive electrode connection lines 220. The geometric centers of the diamond drive electrodes 212 in each set of drive electrode groups 240 and the drive electrode connection lines 220 are on the same line. Further, the straight lines in which the driving electrode connection lines 220 in the respective driving electrode groups 240 are located are parallel to each other.
