Description

互電容式觸控螢幕及其觸控感應方法Mutual capacitive touch screen and touch sensing method thereof

本發明屬於觸控螢幕技術領域,特別是有關於一種互電容式觸控螢幕及其觸控感應方法。
The invention belongs to the field of touch screen technology, and particularly relates to a mutual capacitive touch screen and a touch sensing method thereof.

隨著技術發展,手寫輸入技術越來越為人所重視,目前在電子終端中,普遍採用互電容式觸控螢幕實現對手寫輸入的觸控感應。With the development of technology, handwriting input technology has become more and more important. At present, in the electronic terminal, the mutual capacitive touch screen is commonly used to realize the touch sensing of handwriting input.

互電容式觸控螢幕內部包括驅動電極和接收電極,驅動電極用以發出低電壓高頻訊號並投射到接收電極,以形成穩定的電流。當人體或觸控筆接觸到觸控螢幕時,指尖或筆尖與觸控螢幕之間會形成一個等效電容,而高頻訊號可藉由等效電容入地,則接收電極所接收到的電荷量減小,藉由接收電極上的電流強度,即可確認觸碰點的位置。The mutual capacitive touch screen includes a driving electrode and a receiving electrode, and the driving electrode is configured to emit a low voltage high frequency signal and project to the receiving electrode to form a stable current. When the human body or the stylus touches the touch screen, an equivalent capacitance is formed between the fingertip or the tip of the pen and the touch screen, and the high frequency signal can enter the ground by the equivalent capacitance, and the receiving electrode receives the The amount of charge is reduced, and the position of the touch point can be confirmed by the intensity of the current on the receiving electrode.

由於觸控筆的筆尖直徑一般均小於指尖,這樣在感應筆尖輸入時,各接收電極之間的間距相對較小,其原因如下:如第1a圖所示,R為接收電極,T為驅動電極,A點為觸碰點,X軸表示雜訊值,Y軸表示接收電極上電流強度值(即感應值),若各接收電極之間的間距保持當前的較大值,則當筆尖從左向右運動時,由於筆尖直徑較小,當筆尖處於兩個接收電極的中間位置A時,感應值與雜訊值接近或一致,則無法判斷出筆尖的當前位置;為此,如第1b圖所示,可以減小各接收電極之間的間距,則當筆尖處於兩個接收電極的中間位置A時,雖然感應值有所下降,但仍高於雜訊值,故可檢測到筆尖的觸碰點位置。Since the tip diameter of the stylus is generally smaller than the fingertip, the spacing between the receiving electrodes is relatively small when the pen tip is input, for the following reasons: as shown in Fig. 1a, R is the receiving electrode, and T is the driving. Electrode, point A is the touch point, the X axis represents the noise value, and the Y axis represents the current intensity value (ie, the sensing value) on the receiving electrode. If the spacing between the receiving electrodes maintains the current larger value, then the tip of the pen When moving from left to right, since the diameter of the nib is small, when the nib is at the middle position A of the two receiving electrodes, the sensing value is close to or coincides with the noise value, and the current position of the nib cannot be determined; for this, as in 1b As shown in the figure, the spacing between the receiving electrodes can be reduced. When the nib is at the middle position A of the two receiving electrodes, although the sensing value is decreased, it is still higher than the noise value, so the nib can be detected. Touch the point location.

因此,習知互電容式觸控螢幕為了能夠精確檢測到各種類型觸碰物體的觸碰點,往往將各接收電極之間的間距固定做小,這樣雖然有助於檢測觸控筆等細小觸碰物體的輸入,但對於手指等較大觸碰物體的輸入則意義不大,反倒是由於間距小、感應通道數量多而增加了整體的掃描時間,且浪費了較多的系統資源;同時,掃描時間的增加意味著報點速度慢,系統反應不靈敏,用戶體驗性較差。

Therefore, in order to accurately detect the touch points of various types of touching objects, the conventional mutual capacitive touch screen often fixes the spacing between the receiving electrodes to be small, which helps to detect small touches such as a stylus. Touching the input of an object, but the input to a large touch object such as a finger is not significant. On the contrary, because of the small pitch and the large number of sensing channels, the overall scanning time is increased, and more system resources are wasted; The increase in scan time means that the report rate is slow, the system response is insensitive, and the user experience is poor.

本發明實施例的目的在於提供一種互電容式觸控螢幕,旨在解決習知的互電容式觸控螢幕由於各接收電極之間的間距固定做小,使得對較大觸碰物體的掃描時間變長、浪費系統資源、進而使得系統反應不靈敏、用戶體驗性差的問題。The purpose of the embodiments of the present invention is to provide a mutual-capacitive touch screen, which aims to solve the scanning time of the conventional mutual-capacitive touch screen due to the small spacing between the receiving electrodes. The problem of lengthening, wasting system resources, and making the system insensitive, and user experience is poor.

該薄膜場效應電晶體液晶顯示器的製造流程為:首先在玻璃極板上真空濺鍍鉬鋁釹,並光刻圖案開關電極;之後,藉由等離子體增強化學氣相沉積法形成第一絕緣層;之後,藉由真空濺鍍ITO,光刻圖案形成X方向公共電極;之後,藉由等離子體增強化學氣相沉積法形成薄膜場效應電晶體,光刻圖案;之後,藉由等離子體增強化學氣相沉積法形成第二絕緣層,光刻圖案;之後,真空濺鍍鉬鋁釹,光刻圖案形成訊號電極與薄膜場效應電晶體汲極;之後,藉由等離子體增強化學氣相沉積法形成第三絕緣層,光刻圖案;之後,真空濺鍍ITO,光刻圖案形成Y方向公共電極和畫素電極。The thin film field effect transistor liquid crystal display is manufactured by first vacuum-sputtering molybdenum aluminum crucible on a glass plate and lithographically patterning the electrode; and then forming a first insulating layer by plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition.
