Description

觸控輸入裝置 Touch input device

本發明係關於一種觸控輸入裝置以及觸控感測電路,且特別是有關一種可抑制電磁干擾的觸控輸入裝置與觸控感測電路。 The present invention relates to a touch input device and a touch sensing circuit, and more particularly to a touch input device and a touch sensing circuit capable of suppressing electromagnetic interference.

由於科技日益進步,帶動資訊、通訊、電子等產品愈來愈多元化及人性化。舉例而言,透過觸控面板、手寫板等產品,使用者即可直接以手指或觸控筆在面板上操作程式或輸入訊息,省去以往使用滑鼠或鍵盤等輸入裝置的麻煩。 As technology advances, the products, communications, electronics and other products are becoming more diversified and humanized. For example, through touch panels, tablets, and other products, users can directly use the finger or stylus to operate programs or input messages on the panel, eliminating the need for input devices such as mice or keyboards.

現有的觸控面板之技術大致可分為電阻式、電容式、光學式以及超音波式幾種。電阻式觸控面板其主要組成包括上下兩層氧化銦錫導電玻璃(ITO glass)。當物體碰觸上層導電玻璃使其凹陷而與下層導電玻璃接觸時,該面板的控制器將偵測出一電壓信號,並據此判斷接觸點的座標位置。 The technology of the existing touch panel can be roughly classified into a resistive type, a capacitive type, an optical type, and an ultrasonic type. The main components of the resistive touch panel include upper and lower layers of indium tin oxide conductive glass (ITO glass). When the object touches the upper conductive glass to be recessed to contact the underlying conductive glass, the controller of the panel detects a voltage signal and determines the coordinate position of the contact point accordingly.

電容式觸控面板又分為表面電容式觸控面板與投影電容式觸控面板。表面電容式觸控面板的結構組成包括一塊導電玻璃,在導電玻璃兩面皆塗佈有導電材料,且導電玻璃的外側會再覆上一層防刮塗膜。玻璃板周圍的電極會在玻璃表面形成一均勻電場。每當使用者以手指觸控面板,其手指就會與外側導電層上的電容耦合,吸去面板上微小 的電流。從位於觸控面板各角落的電極流出的電流量與手指到角落的距離成正比,觸控面板之控制器通過對這電流比例的計算得出接觸點的位置資訊。 The capacitive touch panel is further divided into a surface capacitive touch panel and a projected capacitive touch panel. The structure of the surface capacitive touch panel comprises a piece of conductive glass coated on both sides of the conductive glass with a conductive material, and the outer side of the conductive glass is further coated with a scratch-resistant coating film. The electrodes around the glass plate create a uniform electric field on the surface of the glass. Whenever the user touches the panel with a finger, his finger will be coupled with the capacitance on the outer conductive layer, sucking the tiny on the panel. Current. The amount of current flowing from the electrodes located at each corner of the touch panel is proportional to the distance from the finger to the corner. The controller of the touch panel obtains the position information of the contact point by calculating the current ratio.

而近來,投影電容式觸控面板更是廣泛用於各種觸控電子裝置(如智慧型手機)。投影電容式觸控面板的定位原理是利用埋設於觸控面板內的感應網格之電容變化來判斷接觸點的位置。請參閱圖一A,圖一A繪示先前技術中觸控面板10的示意圖。如圖一A所示,觸控面板10以分層方式埋設有複數條X方向導線(包含X1~Xm)以及複數條Y方向導線(包含Y1~Yn)。X方向導線與Y方向導線交錯排列共同形成感應網格,在每個X方向導線與Y方向導線的交叉點即形成一個電容節點(例如圖一A中電容節點100a、100b、100c),例如於此例中,共有m*n個電容節點。當手指觸摸螢幕的時候,手指對感應網格的耦合關係將改變感應網格上鄰近之電容節點之電容值。偵測電路方可利用感應網格上的電容節點之電容變化量來計算接觸點的座標位置。 Recently, projected capacitive touch panels are widely used in various touch electronic devices (such as smart phones). The positioning principle of the projected capacitive touch panel is to determine the position of the contact point by using the capacitance change of the induction grid embedded in the touch panel. Please refer to FIG. 1A. FIG. 1A is a schematic diagram of the touch panel 10 in the prior art. As shown in FIG. 1A, the touch panel 10 is embedded in a plurality of X-directional wires (including X1 to Xm) and a plurality of Y-directional wires (including Y1 to Yn) in a layered manner. The X-direction wire and the Y-direction wire are alternately arranged to form an induction grid, and a capacitance node is formed at the intersection of each X-direction wire and the Y-direction wire (for example, the capacitance nodes 100a, 100b, 100c in FIG. 1A), for example, In this example, there are a total of m*n capacitor nodes. When the finger touches the screen, the coupling relationship of the finger to the sensing grid will change the capacitance value of the adjacent capacitive node on the sensing grid. The detection circuit can calculate the coordinate position of the contact point by using the capacitance change of the capacitance node on the sensing grid.

請一併參閱圖一B,圖一B繪示先前技術中觸控輸入裝置1的示意圖。如圖一B所示,先前技術中的觸控輸入裝置1包含了配合觸控面板10使用的觸控感測電路。觸控感測電路內部可包含多工選擇器12、控制電路120、偵測模組14。實際電路中,偵測模組14可為電容量測電路。 Please refer to FIG. 1B. FIG. 1B is a schematic diagram of the touch input device 1 in the prior art. As shown in FIG. 1B , the touch input device 1 of the prior art includes a touch sensing circuit used in conjunction with the touch panel 10 . The touch sensing circuit can include a multiplexer 12, a control circuit 120, and a detection module 14 therein. In the actual circuit, the detection module 14 can be a capacitance measuring circuit.

實際應用中,控制電路120可控制多工選擇器12, 並透過多工選擇器12選擇特定的X方向導線(X1~Xm)與Y方向導線(Y1~Yn),以選定特定的電容節點,例如多工選擇器12可選擇X方向導線X3與Y方向導線Y3以對應到電容節點100a。偵測模組14可產生偵測脈波訊號Sdet,並將偵測脈波訊號Sdet透過多工選擇器12輸入至電容節點100a。隨後,偵測模組14可根據輸入至電容節點100a之偵測脈波訊號Sdet的訊號回饋進而判斷電容節點100a之觸控偵測狀態。 In practical applications, the control circuit 120 can control the multiplex selector 12, And selecting a specific X-direction wire (X1~Xm) and a Y-direction wire (Y1~Yn) through the multiplexer 12 to select a specific capacitor node, for example, the multiplexer 12 can select the X-direction wire X3 and the Y direction. Wire Y3 corresponds to capacitor node 100a. The detection module 14 can generate the detection pulse signal Sdet and input the detection pulse signal Sdet to the capacitance node 100a through the multiplex selector 12. Then, the detecting module 14 can determine the touch detection state of the capacitor node 100a according to the signal feedback of the detected pulse signal Sdet input to the capacitor node 100a.

控制電路120亦可控制多工選擇器12,以多工選擇器12逐一選定一條X或Y方向導線,以逐行/逐列方式掃描電容節點(等效為一次偵測一整行或一整列的電容節點)。請參閱圖二,圖二繪示觸控輸入裝置1對不同電容節點產生偵測脈波訊號Sdet的時序示意圖。由圖二可知,偵測脈波訊號Sdet依序被輸入至X1、X2、X3、X4...等X方向導線。 The control circuit 120 can also control the multiplexer 12 to select one X or Y direction wire one by one by the multiplexer 12 to scan the capacitor node row by row/row by column (equivalent to one line or one column at a time) Capacitor node). Please refer to FIG. 2 . FIG. 2 is a timing diagram of the touch input device 1 generating a detection pulse signal Sdet for different capacitance nodes. As can be seen from FIG. 2, the detected pulse signal Sdet is sequentially input to the X-directional wires such as X1, X2, X3, X4, and the like.

此處之偵測脈波訊號Sdet通常為具有高頻率週期性脈波的電壓訊號或電流訊號。當偵測模組14將這些高頻偵測脈波訊號輸入特定的電容節點(如電容節點100a)時,將對電子系統中鄰近觸控面板10的其它電子元件(例如液晶顯示屏幕等)造成電磁干擾的現象,亦可能對鄰近的電容節點(例如電容節點100b,100c)造成電磁干擾。 The detection pulse signal Sdet here is usually a voltage signal or a current signal with a high frequency periodic pulse wave. When the detecting module 14 inputs the high frequency detecting pulse signals into a specific capacitor node (such as the capacitor node 100a), it will cause other electronic components (such as liquid crystal display screens) adjacent to the touch panel 10 in the electronic system. The phenomenon of electromagnetic interference may also cause electromagnetic interference to adjacent capacitor nodes (such as capacitor nodes 100b, 100c).

在現今觸控面板精確度逐步提高的要求之下,設計者急欲縮小觸控訊號判斷時的誤差。另一方面,在各種消費性電子裝置的體積愈來愈薄型化的驅勢之下,消除或避免 不同電子元件之間電磁干擾也成為很重要的課題。 Under the gradual improvement of the accuracy of touch panels today, designers are anxious to reduce the error in the judgment of touch signals. On the other hand, under the temptation to make the volume of various consumer electronic devices thinner and thinner, eliminate or avoid Electromagnetic interference between different electronic components has also become an important issue.

At this time, corresponding to the change of the capacitance value, the detecting module 34 can know the signal feedback of the detected pulse signal Sdet input to the first capacitive node set N1, thereby knowing the first capacitive node set N1. Touch detection status.

需特別注意的是,於本發明中當偵測模組34的訊號產生器340產生偵測脈波訊號Sdet至第一電容節點集合N1的同時,亦一併產生與偵測脈波訊號Sdet相位相反之反相脈波訊號Sinv,如圖三所示於此實施例中,反相脈波訊號Sinv可基於偵測脈波訊號Sdet通過簡單的反相電路產生,但本發明並不以此為限。於另一實施例中,亦可獨立設置兩組同步但反相輸出的訊號產生器分別產生或以其他訊號反相之方法產生,此為習知技藝之人所熟知,在此不另贅述。此處之反相脈波訊號Sinv透過選擇模組32被輸入至鄰近第一電容節點集合N1的第二電容節點集合N2。 It should be noted that, in the present invention, when the signal generator 340 of the detecting module 34 generates the detecting pulse signal Sdet to the first capacitive node set N1, it also generates and detects the phase of the pulse signal Sdet. In contrast, the inverted pulse signal Sinv, as shown in FIG. 3, in this embodiment, the inverted pulse signal Sinv can be generated by a simple inverter circuit based on the detected pulse signal Sdet, but the present invention does not limit. In another embodiment, two sets of synchronized but inverted output signal generators may be separately generated or generated by other signals, which are well known to those skilled in the art and will not be further described herein. Here, the inverted pulse signal Sinv is input through the selection module 32 to the second capacitive node set N2 adjacent to the first capacitive node set N1.

請一併參閱圖五,圖五繪示觸控輸入裝置3依序對不同電容節點集合產生偵測脈波訊號Sdet以及反相脈波訊號Sinv的時序示意圖。由圖五可知,在一個特定的偵測週期內(如圖五中的時間點t0到時間點t1),偵測模組34同時產生偵測脈波訊號Sdet以及反相脈波訊號Sinv並輸入至鄰近的兩組電容節點集合中。如此一來,偵測脈波訊號Sdet可用以感測電容節點的觸控偵測狀態,而同時,與其反相的反相脈波訊號Sinv可用以抑制偵測脈波訊號Sdet對其他電子元件的電磁輻射干擾,亦有助於抑制偵測脈波訊號Sdet對其他電容節點的電磁傳導干擾。 Referring to FIG. 5 together, FIG. 5 illustrates a timing diagram of the touch input device 3 sequentially generating the detected pulse signal Sdet and the inverted pulse signal Sinv for different sets of capacitance nodes. As shown in FIG. 5, during a specific detection period (such as time point t0 to time point t1 in FIG. 5), the detection module 34 simultaneously generates and detects the pulse signal Sdet and the inverted pulse signal Sinv. To the adjacent two sets of capacitor nodes. In this way, the detection pulse signal Sdet can be used to sense the touch detection state of the capacitor node, and at the same time, the inverted pulse signal Sinv can be used to suppress the detection of the pulse signal Sdet to other electronic components. Electromagnetic radiation interference also helps to suppress the electromagnetic conduction interference of the pulse signal Sdet to other capacitor nodes.

綜上所述,觸控輸入裝置3透過產生與偵測脈波訊號Sdet反相的反相脈波訊號Sinv,並輸入至欲偵測的電容節點集合附近,以降低偵測脈波訊號Sdet產生的電磁干擾影響,但本發明並不以此為限。 In summary, the touch input device 3 generates an inverted pulse signal Sinv that is inverted from the detected pulse signal Sdet and is input to the vicinity of the set of capacitance nodes to be detected to reduce the detection of the pulse signal Sdet. The electromagnetic interference effect, but the invention is not limited thereto.

請參閱圖六。圖六繪示根據本發明之第二具體實施例中的觸控輸入裝置5的示意圖。與第一具體實施例的最大不同之處在於,觸控輸入裝置5共包含兩組偵測模組,如圖五中的第一偵測模組54與第二偵測模組56。 Please refer to Figure 6. FIG. 6 is a schematic diagram of the touch input device 5 in the second embodiment of the present invention. The maximum difference from the first embodiment is that the touch input device 5 includes a plurality of detection modules, such as the first detection module 54 and the second detection module 56 in FIG.

於此實施例中,第一偵測模組54與第二偵測模組56分別包含各自的訊號產生器(540、560)以產生第一偵測脈波訊號Sdet+以及第二偵測脈波訊號Sdet-。第一偵測脈波訊號Sdet+可透過選擇模組52被輸入至第一電容節點集合,用以判斷第一電容節點集合之觸控偵測狀態。第二偵測脈波訊號Sdet-可透過選擇模組52被輸入至鄰近第一電容節點集合的第二電容節點集合,用以判斷第二電容節點集合之觸控偵測狀態。 In this embodiment, the first detection module 54 and the second detection module 56 respectively include respective signal generators (540, 560) to generate a first detection pulse signal Sdet+ and a second detection pulse wave. Signal Sdet-. The first detection pulse signal Sdet+ can be input to the first capacitive node set through the selection module 52 for determining the touch detection state of the first capacitive node set. The second detection pulse signal Sdet- can be input to the second set of capacitance nodes adjacent to the first set of capacitance nodes through the selection module 52 for determining the touch detection state of the second collection of capacitance nodes.

需特別說明的是,第一偵測脈波訊號Sdet+與第二偵測脈波訊號Sdet-彼此反相,也就是說,第一偵測脈波訊號Sdet+與第二偵測脈波訊號Sdet-互相抑制彼此的電磁干擾,提高系統的穩定性。且另一方面,第一偵測模組54與第二偵測模組56可同時根據第一偵測脈波訊號Sdet+與第二偵測脈波訊號Sdet-分別判斷兩個電容節點集合的觸控偵測狀態,理論上可將觸控偵測的判斷速度提高至少兩倍。請參閱圖七。圖七繪示觸控輸入裝置5依序對不同電容節點集合產生第一偵測脈波訊號Sdet+以及第二偵測 脈波訊號Sdet-的時序示意圖。 It should be specially noted that the first detection pulse signal Sdet+ and the second detection pulse signal Sdet- are mutually inverted, that is, the first detection pulse signal Sdet+ and the second detection pulse signal Sdet- Mutual suppression of each other's electromagnetic interference and improve the stability of the system. On the other hand, the first detecting module 54 and the second detecting module 56 can simultaneously determine the touch of the two capacitive node sets according to the first detecting pulse signal Sdet+ and the second detecting pulse signal Sdet-, respectively. Controlling the detection state can theoretically increase the speed of touch detection by at least two times. Please refer to Figure 7. FIG. 7 illustrates that the touch input device 5 sequentially generates the first detected pulse signal Sdet+ and the second detection for different sets of capacitance nodes. Schematic diagram of the pulse signal Sdet-.

舉例來說,圖七所對應的偵測可為第一偵測模組54由X方向導線X3輸入第一偵測脈波訊號Sdet+,而所有Y方向導線(Y1~Yn)接地或空接,以選取對應X3的所有電容節點形成第一電容節點集合N1,即偵測是否有觸控發生在(X3,Y1~Yn)上。第二偵測模組56由X方向導線X4輸入第二偵測脈波訊號Sdet-,並將所有Y方向導線(Y1~Yn)接地或空接,以選取對應X4的所有電容節點形成第二電容節點集合N2,即偵測是否有觸控發生在(X4,Y1~Yn)上。 For example, the detection corresponding to FIG. 7 may be that the first detection module 54 inputs the first detection pulse signal Sdet+ from the X-direction wire X3, and all the Y-direction wires (Y1~Yn) are grounded or connected. The first capacitive node set N1 is formed by selecting all the capacitor nodes corresponding to X3, that is, detecting whether a touch occurs on (X3, Y1~Yn). The second detecting module 56 inputs the second detecting pulse signal Sdet- from the X-direction wire X4, and grounds or nulls all the Y-directional wires (Y1~Yn) to select all the capacitor nodes corresponding to X4 to form a second. The capacitor node sets N2, that is, detects whether a touch occurs on (X4, Y1~Yn).

綜上所述,於本發明的觸控輸入裝置5中,所選擇第一電容節點組與該第二電容節點集合其組成之電容節點的相對位置關係並不限制於垂直或水平相鄰關係。例如於另一操作實例中,每個電容節點組內可包含水平相鄰、環形、方形、斜線或其他幾何圖形排列的相鄰近的電容節點而成,其電容節點的組成數目亦不限定為單個,亦可為兩個或兩個以上的多數個電容節點,皆可達到相似或更快速的偵測判斷的效果。於第二具體實施例中觸控輸入裝置5其他內部元件的作動及原理與第一具體實施例大致相同,在此不另贅述。 In summary, in the touch input device 5 of the present invention, the relative positional relationship between the selected first capacitive node group and the second capacitive node set capacitor node is not limited to a vertical or horizontal adjacent relationship. For example, in another operation example, each capacitor node group may be formed by adjacent adjacent capacitor nodes that are horizontally adjacent, ring-shaped, square, oblique, or other geometric arrangement, and the number of components of the capacitor node is not limited to a single. It can also be two or more capacitor nodes, which can achieve similar or faster detection and judgment effects. The operation and principle of the other internal components of the touch input device 5 in the second embodiment are substantially the same as those in the first embodiment, and are not described herein.

相較於先前技術,本發明將一組彼此同步但反向的脈波信號輸入相鄰電容節點或相鄰的電容節點組,進行觸控狀態的偵測判斷,利用脈波信號間彼此反向的關係降低對系統中其他元件的電磁干擾,可提高觸控輸入裝置的穩定性。 Compared with the prior art, the present invention inputs a set of mutually synchronized but inverted pulse wave signals into adjacent capacitor nodes or adjacent capacitor node groups, and performs touch state detection and judgment, and uses pulse signals to reverse each other. The relationship reduces electromagnetic interference to other components in the system and improves the stability of the touch input device.

藉由以上較佳具體實施例之詳述,係希望能更加清楚 描述本發明之特徵與精神,而並非以上述所揭露的較佳具體實施例來對本發明之範疇加以限制。相反地,其目的是希望能涵蓋各種改變及具相等性的安排於本發明所欲申請之專利範圍的範疇內。 With the details of the above preferred embodiments, it is hoped that it will be clearer.
