- the touch panel controller 40 has a function of detecting that it is affected by noise so as not to affect the 42.
- interrupt control unit 44 When the noise detection unit 43 detects (detects) external noise, the interrupt control unit 44 outputs an interrupt signal (interrupt factor: detection of external noise) for transmitting external noise detection to the host controller 50.
- interrupt factor detection of external noise

Can do.
- the interrupt control unit 44 may determine whether or not to transmit the interrupt signal to the host controller 50 in accordance with the power supply remaining amount of the power supply device 3 described above.
- the interrupt control unit 44 is prevented from transmitting an interrupt signal to the host controller 50.

- the interrupt control unit 44 may adjust the frequency with which the interrupt signal is transmitted to the host controller 50 in accordance with the power supply remaining amount of the power supply device 3 described above. For example, it is conceivable that transmission of interrupt signals is thinned out at a rate of once every two times.
- the power supply circuit when the remaining power supply amount (for example, the remaining battery amount) decreases, for example, the power supply circuit operates with a constant current.
- the switching (SW) frequency of the power supply circuit is constant, for example, the appearance of spurious noise shown in FIG. 7 hardly changes.
- the liquid crystal drive parameter setting unit 51 changes the liquid crystal drive parameter. Details of the method for changing the liquid crystal driving parameters will be described later.
- FIG. 4 is a block diagram showing the configuration of the touch panel controller 40.
- the input operation detection unit 42 includes a sampling unit 42a and a touch position calculation unit 42b.
- the touch panel drive unit 41 is connected to the drive lines T1 to Tx of the touch panel 30, and sequentially drives the drive lines T1 to Tx.
- the input operation detection unit 42 includes a sampling unit 42a and a touch position calculation unit 42b.
- the sampling unit 42 a is connected to the sense lines R 1 to Ry of the touch panel 30, samples the output signals of the sense lines R 1 to Ry (each coordinate) sequentially, and inputs the sampled data to the noise detection unit 43.
- the sampling unit 42a reports and sequentially samples a plurality of output signals of the sense lines R1 to Ry, and calculates a digitized capacitance value at each intersection.
- FIG. 5 is a timing chart for explaining the flow of external noise reduction processing.
- FIGS. 5A to 5K respectively show a Vsync signal, a report on the touch panel 30, a DC map (average value) of the entire surface, an interrupt control, a control of the host controller 50, a count value, a horizontal synchronization signal, an external noise, A touch panel drive signal is shown.
- the magnitude of at least one of the plurality of output signals when receiving external noise is the magnitude of a normal output signal when receiving no external noise.
- output signal is the magnitude of a normal output signal when receiving no external noise.
- the inventor has found that there is a tendency to be larger than this. In other words, if the size of the detected output signal is larger than the normal output signal, there is a high possibility of receiving external noise, and if the size of the detected output signal is comparable to the normal output signal There is a high possibility that it has not received external noise. Therefore, the presence or absence of external noise can be detected by detecting the magnitude of the output signal.
- based on at least one of a plurality of output signals may be based on one output signal or based on two or more output signals.
- a case based on one output signal for example, a case where the median of a plurality of output signals is obtained can be considered.
- an average value or a deviation value of the plurality of output signals may be obtained.
- “existence / absence of external noise” can be determined, for example, based on whether or not the median, average value, deviation value, and the like exceed a predetermined threshold. The reason for using the median, average value, deviation value, etc. is to avoid erroneous detection.
- the “DC map value (average value) of the entire surface” corresponds to the capacitance value, and the magnitude of at least one of the plurality of output signals is “DC map of the entire surface”.
- value is adopted.
- the capacitance value in the normal state not receiving external noise is 10
- it is 50 in the state receiving external noise.
- the magnitude of the “DC map value of the entire surface” when receiving external noise tends to be larger than the normal size of the “DC map value of the entire surface” when receiving no external noise. There is.
- a threshold value (30 in this example) is set in advance, and if the “DC map value (average value) of the entire surface” is 30 or more, the noise detection unit 43 determines that there is external noise. Then, the interrupt control unit 44 outputs an interrupt signal (interrupt factor: detection of external noise) to the host controller 50. On the other hand, if the “DC map value (average value) of the entire surface” is less than 30, the noise detection unit 43 determines that there is no external noise, and the interrupt control unit 44 determines that the host controller 50 Does not output interrupt signals.
- the period or time of the horizontal synchronization period of the drive signal is adjusted. If possible, interference between the external noise and the period of the 1H period can be suppressed (more specifically, the peak frequency of the external noise can be avoided), and the external noise can be reduced. This is because, when external noise is input to the receiving circuit (not shown) of the touch panel 30, the received signal changes according to the detection cycle, but in the case of a touch signal, the received signal does not change according to the detection cycle. Because there is.
- the liquid crystal drive parameter setting unit 51 changes the frequency of the touch panel drive signal in order to change the frequency of the liquid crystal drive parameter.
- the period or time of the 1H period is changed. Therefore, even when the period of the external noise interferes with the period of the 1H period, the touch signal can be reliably detected.
- the noise detection unit 43 further specifies the period of the external noise as shown in FIG. 7, and the liquid crystal drive parameter setting unit 51 includes a plurality of input operation detection units 42 based on the specified period of the external noise.
- the period or time of the 1H period of the drive signal may be adjusted so that a predetermined amount or more of external noise is not input when the output signal is detected.

Abstract
Description
まず、図1に基づき、本発明の実施の一形態である携帯端末装置(携帯端末)1の構成について説明する。図1は、携帯端末装置1の構成を示すブロック図である。
給電装置3内の電池5を充電したい場合、携帯端末装置1と電源変換装置4(ACチャージャー)を接続することで充電される。
図2は、液晶表示装置2の構成を示すブロック図である。
液晶モジュール10は、液晶パネル11および液晶ドライバ12を含んで構成される。
液晶パネル11には、ゲートライン、ソースラインおよび表示画素が設けられている。ゲートラインは、所定の間隔を空けて互いに平行に複数本設けられている。一方、ソースラインは、ゲートラインと直交する方向に、所定の間隔を空けて互いに平行に複数本設けられている。表示画素は、ゲートラインとソースラインとの各交差点に設けられている。また、各表示画素には、スイッチング素子としてのTFT(thin film transistor)が接続されている。
液晶ドライバ12は、ゲートラインを駆動するゲートドライバと、ソースラインを駆動するソースドライバとを備えている。ゲートドライバは、TFTをオン(ON)するための走査信号を各ゲートラインに順次出力する。ソースドライバは、各ソースラインに階調表示電圧(駆動電圧)を出力する。
液晶コントローラ20は、ホストコントローラ50から供給される表示データDに基づき、その表示データDをVsync(垂直同期信号VS)、水平同期信号HSなどの液晶パネル11の表示制御を行うための信号とともに液晶ドライバ12に供給する。これにより、液晶表示の駆動タイミングが制御され、表示データDの画像が液晶パネル11に表示される。
タッチパネル30は、液晶パネル11の表示画面上でタッチ操作を行うために設けられる入力装置である。タッチパネル30に対してタッチ操作が行われると、タッチパネル30は、タッチ位置に応じた信号を出力する。タッチパネル30としては、あらゆる方式のタッチパネルを用いることができるが、本実施形態では、静電容量方式のタッチパネルを用いている。
また、上述したドライブラインT1~TxおよびセンスラインR1~Ryは、タッチパネルコントローラ40に接続されている。タッチパネルコントローラ40(および/またはホストコントローラ50)は、本発明のタッチパネル駆動装置を具現化した形態に相当し、図2に示すように、タッチパネル駆動部(駆動制御手段)41、入力操作検出部(信号検知手段)42、ノイズ検知部(ノイズ検知手段)43、割込み制御部(割込み制御手段)44を備えている。
ノイズ検知部43は、例えば、携帯端末装置1の外部に接続される電源変換装置4から発生する、電源IC(Integrated circuit)のスイッチングノイズやインバータ蛍光灯やAM波による外来ノイズが入力操作検出部42に影響を与えないように、タッチパネルコントローラ40がノイズの影響を受けていることを検出する機能を有している。
割込み制御部44は、ノイズ検知部43が外来ノイズを検知(検出)した際に、ホストコントローラ50に外来ノイズ検知を伝えるための割込み信号(割込み要因:外来ノイズ検知)を出力する。なお、外来ノイズの検出方法の詳細については、後述する。
また、割込み制御部44は、上述した給電装置3の給電可能残量に応じて、上記割込み信号をホストコントローラ50に送信するか否かを決定しても良い。
割込み制御部44は、上述した給電装置3の給電可能残量に応じて、上記割込み信号をホストコントローラ50に送信する頻度を調整するようにしても良い。例えば、2回に1回の割合で、割込み信号の送信を間引くことなどが考えらえる。
ホストコントローラ50は、外来ノイズ検知の割込み信号を受け取ると、液晶駆動パラメータ設定部51にて、液晶駆動パラメータの変更を実施する。なお、液晶駆動パラメータの変更方法の詳細については、後述する。
次に、図4および図5に基づき、上述したタッチパネルコントローラ40のより詳細な構成について説明する。
タッチパネル駆動部41は、上記のように、タッチパネル30のドライブラインT1~Txに接続されており、ドライブラインT1~Txを順次駆動する。
入力操作検出部42は、サンプリング部42aおよびタッチ位置算出部42bを備えている。サンプリング部42aは、タッチパネル30のセンスラインR1~Ryに接続されており、センスラインR1~Ry(各座標)の出力信号を順次サンプリングして、サンプリングしたデータをノイズ検出部43に入力する。
次に、ノイズ検知部43による外来ノイズの検知方法について説明する。上記のとおりサンプリング部42aでは、センスラインR1~Ryの複数の出力信号を毎レポート、順次サンプリングして、各交点の数値化された静電容量値を計算する。
ここで、外来ノイズの周期がタッチパネルの駆動信号の水平同期期間(以下、「1H期間」という)の周期と干渉しているような場合でも、駆動信号の水平同期期間の周期または時間を調整することができれば、外来ノイズと1H期間の周期の干渉を抑制することができ(より具体的には、外来ノイズのピーク周波数を回避することができ)、外来ノイズを低減させることが可能となる。なぜなら、外来ノイズがタッチパネル30の受信回路(不図示)に入力されたとき、検出周期に応じて受信信号は変化するものの、タッチ信号の場合、検出周期に応じて受信信号は変化しないという特性があるためである。
ホストコントローラ50は、外来ノイズを回避できた1H周期の設定値をメモリ部(格納部)52に格納する。上記構成によれば、予めメモリ部52に格納した1H期間の周期または時間の調整値(外来ノイズの低減効果のあった値)を呼び出すことで、調整値をメモリ部52に格納した後の、外来ノイズを回避するための処理時間およびタッチパネル感度劣化時間の短縮化が可能となり、タッチ検出時間を短くすることができる。すなわちタッチパネル30の操作性を向上させることができる。
次に、図6に基づき、外来ノイズの低減処理(タッチパネルの駆動方法)の流れについて説明する。図6は、外来ノイズの低減処理の流れ説明するためのフローチャートである。
まず、±8.5%(6.6KHz)周波数をシフトさせる場合の例について説明する。以下、デフォルトでは、1H周期=78.4KHz(1H期間=12.8μs)であるものとする。
最後に、タッチパネルコントローラ40またはホストコントローラ50の各ブロック、特にタッチパネル駆動部41、入力操作検出部42、ノイズ検知部43、割込み制御部44、液晶駆動パラメータ設定部51は、集積回路(ICチップ)上に形成された論理回路によってハードウェア的に実現してもよいし、CPU(Central Processing Unit)を用いてソフトウェア的に実現してもよい。
