A sensing device for force and tactile-proximity sensing includes an upper substrate, a lower substrate, a first electrode layer having a plurality of first sensing electrodes, a second electrode layer having at least one second sensing electrode, a dielectric layer arranged between the upper substrate and the lower substrates, and a capacitance sensing circuit. In tactile-proximity sensing operation, the capacitance sensing circuit sends a touch control capacitance-exciting signal to a selected first sensing electrode and obtains a tactile-proximity sensing signal therefrom, wherein an tactile-proximity auxiliary signal with same phase as the touch control capacitance-exciting signal is sent to the at least one corresponding second sensing electrode. In force sensing operation, the capacitance sensing circuit sends a force capacitance-exciting signal to the corresponding second sensing electrode and obtains a force sensing signal therefrom, wherein a force counter-exciting signal is also sent to the selected first sensing electrode.
