Description

感測裝置及偵測方法Sensing device and detecting method

本發明係關於一種感測裝置及偵測方法,特別是一種觸碰面板的感測裝置及偵測方法。The invention relates to a sensing device and a detecting method, in particular to a sensing device and a detecting method of a touch panel.

隨著科技的發展,面板觸控的技術越趨成熟。以目前來說,面板觸控技術主要分為自容式投射式電容觸控技術與互容式投射式電容觸控技術。自容式投射式電容觸控技術係將電極充電並對其作電容值偵測。由於手指觸控時所偵測到的電容值與未觸碰的電容值不同,依據電容值的變化,便可以得知手指觸碰的座標資訊。互容式投射式電容觸控技術係將電極分為兩組,先對一組電極充電,再對另一組電極作電容值的偵測。由於手指觸控所偵測到的電容值與未觸碰的電容值不同,依據兩組電極的相對位置關係,進而得到手指觸碰的座標資訊。然而不管是自容式投射式電容觸控技術或互容式投射式電容觸控技術,僅能偵測到觸碰的位置,卻無法偵測到觸碰時按壓的力量。With the development of technology, the technology of panel touch has become more mature. At present, panel touch technology is mainly divided into self-capacitive projected capacitive touch technology and mutual capacitive projected capacitive touch technology. Self-capacitive projected capacitive touch technology charges the electrodes and detects their capacitance values. Since the capacitance value detected by the finger touch is different from the untouched capacitance value, the coordinate information touched by the finger can be known according to the change of the capacitance value. The mutual capacitive projection capacitive touch technology divides the electrodes into two groups, first charging one set of electrodes, and then detecting the capacitance value of the other set of electrodes. Since the capacitance value detected by the finger touch is different from the untouched capacitance value, the coordinate information of the finger touch is obtained according to the relative positional relationship between the two groups of electrodes. However, whether it is self-capacitive projected capacitive touch technology or mutual capacitive projected capacitive touch technology, only the touch position can be detected, but the force of pressing when touched cannot be detected.

For convenience of description, FIG. 3 only shows the second electrodes 111a-111b. In practice, when the plurality of third electrodes 111a-111c receive the second driving signal S2 from the sensing circuit SC, the plurality of third electrodes 111a-111c are charged. In one embodiment, the plurality of first electrodes 101a-101c and the plurality of third electrodes 111a-111c are charged to the same potential. At this time, there is no potential difference between the first electrode and the third electrode corresponding to the upper and lower sides in FIG. . For example, there is no potential difference between the first electrode 101a and the third electrode 111a corresponding to the upper and lower sides. The plurality of fourth electrodes 111d to 111e are in the second operation mode. In an embodiment, the second operation mode is the same as the first operation mode, and includes a reset phase Tr and a sensing phase Ts, and the reset phase Tr and the sensing phase Ts are closely connected. Similarly, in the reset phase Tr, the plurality of fourth electrodes 111d-111e are reset back to a predetermined potential, and in the following sensing phase Ts, the plurality of fourth electrodes 111d-111e and the sensing circuit The switching unit SW between the SCs is turned on, and the sensing circuit SC detects the potentials of the plurality of fourth electrodes 111d to 111e.

於所述的觸控偵測時段Tt內,感測裝置1係利用互容式感測來取得手指觸碰的座標資訊。以一個實際的例子來說,請參照圖5,圖5係依據本發明之一實施例所繪示的部分感測裝置結構的等效電路圖。如圖5所示,第一電極101a與第二電極101d之間具有電容CmA,第一電極101a與第三電極111a之間具有電容Cf2t,第二電極101d與第四電極111d 之間具有電容Cf2r,第三電極111a與第四電極111d 之間具有電容CmB。於觸控偵測時段內,第一電極101a與第三電極111a分別接收到第一驅動信號與第二驅動信號而開始充電至一電位。此時,第一電極101a與第三電極111a之間並無電位差。而第二電極101d與第四電極111d分別處於第一運作模式與第二運作模式。於此例子中,第一運作模式與第二運作模式均包含重置階段Tr與感測階段Ts,此時第二電極101d與第四電極111d之間實質上不具有電位差。也就是說,於觸控偵測時段內,電容Cf2t與電容Cf2r實質上為零。During the touch detection period Tt, the sensing device 1 uses the mutual capacitive sensing to obtain the coordinate information touched by the finger. For a practical example, please refer to FIG. 5. FIG. 5 is an equivalent circuit diagram of a structure of a portion of a sensing device according to an embodiment of the invention. As shown in FIG. 5, a capacitance CmA is provided between the first electrode 101a and the second electrode 101d, a capacitance Cf2t is provided between the first electrode 101a and the third electrode 111a, and a capacitance Cf2r is provided between the second electrode 101d and the fourth electrode 111d. There is a capacitance CmB between the third electrode 111a and the fourth electrode 111d. During the touch detection period, the first electrode 101a and the third electrode 111a respectively receive the first driving signal and the second driving signal to start charging to a potential. At this time, there is no potential difference between the first electrode 101a and the third electrode 111a. The second electrode 101d and the fourth electrode 111d are respectively in the first operation mode and the second operation mode. In this example, the first operation mode and the second operation mode both include the reset phase Tr and the sensing phase Ts, and there is substantially no potential difference between the second electrode 101d and the fourth electrode 111d. That is to say, during the touch detection period, the capacitance Cf2t and the capacitance Cf2r are substantially zero.

請一併參照圖2、圖3、圖5與圖6,圖6係依據本發明之另一實施例所繪示的部分感測裝置結構的等效電路圖。在圖5中,第一電極101a與第二電極101d之間產生電容CmA、第三電極111a與第四電極111d 之間產生電容CmB、第一電極101a與第三電極111a之間產生電容Cf2t、第二電極101d與第四電極111d 之間產生電容Cf2r、第三電極111a與手指(接地端) 之間產生電容Cf1、第四電極111d與手指(接地端) 之間產生電容Cf1r。舉例來說,相較於第一電極101a與第二電極101d之間所產生的電容CmA和第三電極111a與第四電極111d 之間所產生的電容CmB,因第一電極101a與第三電極111a之距離遠大於第一電極101a與第二電極101d之間的距離,故第一電極101a與第三電極111a之間所產生的電容Cf2t及第二電極101d與第四電極111d 之間所產生的電容Cf2r視為實質上為零時,圖5的等效電路圖可以簡化成圖6的等效電路圖。具體來說,於觸控偵測時段Tt內,第三電極111a會被充電,此時第三電極111a與第四電極111d 之間產生電容CmB。當手指(圖5、圖6的接地端)進行觸碰時,在第二運作模式的感測階段Ts中,感測電路導通開關單元,進而偵測到第三電極111a與第四電極111d 之間所產生的電容CmB產生變化,此時可以得知手指觸碰的座標資訊。於此例子中,由於電容Cf2t與電容Cf2r實質上為零,因此並不會偵測到第一電極101a與第二電極101d之間所產生的電容CmA。Referring to FIG. 2, FIG. 3, FIG. 5 and FIG. 6, FIG. 6 is an equivalent circuit diagram of a structure of a partial sensing device according to another embodiment of the present invention. In FIG. 5, a capacitance CmA is generated between the first electrode 101a and the second electrode 101d, a capacitance CmB is generated between the third electrode 111a and the fourth electrode 111d, and a capacitance Cf2t is generated between the first electrode 101a and the third electrode 111a. A capacitance Cf2r is generated between the second electrode 101d and the fourth electrode 111d, a capacitance Cf1 is generated between the third electrode 111a and the finger (ground), and a capacitance Cf1r is generated between the fourth electrode 111d and the finger (ground). For example, the capacitance CmA generated between the first electrode 101a and the second electrode 101d and the capacitance CmB generated between the third electrode 111a and the fourth electrode 111d are due to the first electrode 101a and the third electrode. The distance 111a is much larger than the distance between the first electrode 101a and the second electrode 101d, so the capacitance Cf2t generated between the first electrode 101a and the third electrode 111a and the second electrode 101d and the fourth electrode 111d are generated. When the capacitance Cf2r is regarded as substantially zero, the equivalent circuit diagram of FIG. 5 can be simplified to the equivalent circuit diagram of FIG. Specifically, during the touch detection period Tt, the third electrode 111a is charged, and a capacitance CmB is generated between the third electrode 111a and the fourth electrode 111d. When the finger (the grounding end of FIG. 5 and FIG. 6) is touched, in the sensing phase Ts of the second operation mode, the sensing circuit turns on the switching unit, thereby detecting the third electrode 111a and the fourth electrode 111d. The capacitance CmB generated between the two changes, and the coordinate information touched by the finger can be known. In this example, since the capacitance Cf2t and the capacitance Cf2r are substantially zero, the capacitance CmA generated between the first electrode 101a and the second electrode 101d is not detected.

請回到圖3。如圖3所示,於感壓偵測時段Tf內,多個第一電極101a~101c接收第三驅動信號S3,第二電極101d~101e處於第二運作模式,多個第三電極111a~111c與多個第四電極111d~111e均處於第三運作模式,其中為了方便說明,圖3僅繪示出第一電極101a~101b與第二電極111a~111b。於此實施例中,當多個第一電極101a~101c接收第三驅動信號S3時,均被充電到一個電位。第二運作模式中包含重置階段Tr與感測階段Ts,其在重置階段Tr與感測階段Ts的運作方式與前述相同,於此不另贅述。而第三運作模式中,多個第三電極111a~111c與多個第四電極111d~111e接收一個固定的參考電壓(例如直流電壓)。於另一實施例中,所述的參考電壓舉例係為感測裝置1的一個接地電壓。使多個第三電極111a~111c與多個第四電極111d~111e接收固定的參考電壓或接地電壓的目的係在於屏蔽手指觸碰時所產生的信號,而使得感測裝置1可以更準確地感測到手指下壓的力道。於另一實施例中,多個第三電極111a~111c與多個第四電極111d~111e係為浮接。Please return to Figure 3. As shown in FIG. 3, in the sensing detection period Tf, the plurality of first electrodes 101a-101c receive the third driving signal S3, the second electrodes 101d-101e are in the second operation mode, and the plurality of third electrodes 111a-111c The plurality of fourth electrodes 111d-111e are in the third mode of operation. For convenience of description, FIG. 3 only shows the first electrodes 101a-101b and the second electrodes 111a-111b. In this embodiment, when the plurality of first electrodes 101a to 101c receive the third driving signal S3, they are all charged to one potential. The second operation mode includes a reset phase Tr and a sensing phase Ts, and the operation mode of the reset phase Tr and the sensing phase Ts is the same as the foregoing, and will not be further described herein. In the third mode of operation, the plurality of third electrodes 111a-111c and the plurality of fourth electrodes 111d-111e receive a fixed reference voltage (eg, a DC voltage). In another embodiment, the reference voltage is exemplified by a ground voltage of the sensing device 1. The purpose of causing the plurality of third electrodes 111a 111 111c and the plurality of fourth electrodes 111d 111 111 to receive a fixed reference voltage or a ground voltage is to shield the signal generated when the finger is touched, so that the sensing device 1 can be more accurately Sensing the force of the finger down. In another embodiment, the plurality of third electrodes 111a-111c and the plurality of fourth electrodes 111d-111e are floating.

於所述的感壓偵測時段Tf內,感測裝置1可以通過因介電層12的厚度變化所產生的電容變化值,進而推算出感測裝置1所受的手指下壓力道。以一個實際的例子來說,請一併參照圖2、圖3、圖5與圖7,圖7係依據本發明之另一實施例所繪示的部分感測裝置結構的等效電路圖。於感壓偵測時段,由於第三電極111a與第四電極111d舉例係接收一個接地電壓,而手指視為一個接地電壓,因此圖5的可以簡化成圖7的等效電路圖。如圖7所示,當手指觸碰第二基板11相對於第二表面E2之外表面而施加下壓力道時,介電層12所包含的介電材料會被壓縮,導致介電層12的厚度方向產生形變而使得手指與第一電極101a之間的距離,以及手指與第二電極101d之間的距離均減少。此時電容Cf2t與電容Cf2r分別改變為電容Cf2t’與電容Cf2r’。因此,電容CmA也隨之改變為CmA’。此時,藉由CmA’與CmA之間的變異量,便可以進一步推算出手指下壓力道的大小。於一實施例中,前述的觸控偵測時段Tt與感壓偵測時段Tf緊密接續。也就是說,當一個觸控偵測時段Tt結束後,一個感壓偵測時段Tf會接續在後,而當前述的感壓偵測時段Tf結束後,另一觸控偵測時段Tt會接續在後,且反覆地重複上述的運作時序。During the sensing period Tf, the sensing device 1 can calculate the pressure channel under the finger of the sensing device 1 by the value of the capacitance change caused by the thickness variation of the dielectric layer 12. For a practical example, please refer to FIG. 2, FIG. 3, FIG. 5 and FIG. 7. FIG. 7 is an equivalent circuit diagram of a structure of a partial sensing device according to another embodiment of the present invention. In the pressure sensing detection period, since the third electrode 111a and the fourth electrode 111d receive a ground voltage as an example, and the finger is regarded as a ground voltage, the equivalent circuit diagram of FIG. 7 can be simplified. As shown in FIG. 7, when a finger touches the outer surface of the second substrate 11 with respect to the outer surface of the second surface E2, the dielectric material contained in the dielectric layer 12 is compressed, resulting in the dielectric layer 12. The thickness direction is deformed such that the distance between the finger and the first electrode 101a and the distance between the finger and the second electrode 101d are reduced. At this time, the capacitance Cf2t and the capacitance Cf2r are changed to the capacitance Cf2t' and the capacitance Cf2r', respectively. Therefore, the capacitance CmA is also changed to CmA'. At this time, by the amount of variation between CmA' and CmA, the magnitude of the pressure channel under the finger can be further estimated. In one embodiment, the touch detection period Tt and the pressure detection period Tf are closely connected. In other words, when one touch detection period Tt ends, one pressure detection period Tf will continue, and when the aforementioned pressure detection period Tf ends, another touch detection period Tt will continue. Thereafter, the above operational timing is repeated repeatedly.
