Integral sensing apparatus for touch and force sensing and method for the same
Abstract:
An integral sensing apparatus includes an upper substrate having a first electrode layer with a plurality of polygonal touch sensing electrodes staggered to each other, a second electrode layer having at least one force sensing electrode, a dielectric layer, and a capacitance sensing circuit. In touch sensing operation, the capacitance sensing circuit sends a touch capacitance-exciting signal to a selected touch sensing electrode and obtains a touch sensing signal therefrom, wherein an auxiliary signal with same phase as the touch capacitance-exciting signal is sent to at least one corresponding force sensing electrode. In force sensing operation, the capacitance sensing circuit sends a force capacitance-exciting signal to the at least one corresponding force sensing electrode and obtains a force sensing signal from the force sensing electrode.
