Abstract:
An input device that includes multiple electrodes disposed in a sensing region of the input device and a sensing circuit coupled to a first electrode and configured to detect an input object proximate the sensing region. The sensing circuit includes an amplifier having an inverting input coupled to the first electrode, a non-inverting input coupled to a drive signal, and an output generating a resulting signal. The sensing circuit includes a feedback capacitor coupled between the output and the inverting input of the amplifier. The drive signal comprises a first sinusoidal signal having a first operating frequency and a second sinusoidal signal having a second operating frequency. The resulting signal is determined by the feedback capacitor and a capacitance of the first electrode caused by the input object. The resulting signal generates a sensing signal on the first electrode.
