Abstract: Operating touch screens by applying more than one voltage modes, including a first voltage mode corresponding to a display phase and a second voltage mode corresponding to a touch sensing phase, is provided. An integrated touch screen device can include a multi-mode power system that can select a first voltage mode corresponding a display phase and a second voltage mode corresponding to a touch sensing phase. Each of one or more voltages can be applied to the touch screen at the corresponding first voltage level during the updating of the image. A touch sensing system can sense touch during a touch sensing phase. Each of one or more voltages can be applied to the touch screen at the corresponding second voltage level during the sensing of touch.

Abstract: Touch screens with more compact border regions can include an active area that includes touch sensing circuitry including drive lines, and a border region around the active area. The border region can include an area of sealant deposited on conductive lines, and transistor circuitry, such as gate drivers, between the active area and the sealant. The conductive lines can extend from the sealant to the active area without electrically connecting to the transistor circuitry. The conductive lines can have equal impedances and can connect the drive lines to a touch controller off of the touch screen. A set of drive signal characteristics for the drive lines can be obtained by determining a transfer function associated with each drive line, obtaining an inverse of each transfer function, and applying a set of individual sense signal characteristics to the inverse transfer functions to obtain the corresponding set of drive signal characteristics.

Abstract: A touch screen to reduce touch pixel coupling. In some examples, the touch screen can include a first display pixel and a second display pixel in a row of display pixels, where the first display pixel can be configurable to be decoupled from the second display pixel during at least a touch sensing phase of the touch screen. In some examples, the touch screen can include a display pixel having a first and a second transistor, where the second transistor can be electrically connected to a gate terminal of the first transistor, and can be diode-connected. In some examples, the touch screen can include two display pixels, each display pixel having two transistors, where two of the transistors can be electrically connected to a first gate line, and the remaining two transistors can be individually electrically connected to a second and third gate line, respectively.

Abstract: A touch input device configured to mitigate the effects of dynamic cross talk noise is provided. The touch input device can dither an effective resistance of a plurality of gate lines proximal to the touch sensor panel in order to determine if a phase of a touch signal demodulator needs to be adjusted.
