Abstract: A touch analog front-end (AFE) for a touch sensitive screen may include a transmitter configured to charge a touch panel and a receiver configured to sense the touch panel. The receiver may include a charge-to-voltage (C2V) converter configured to convert a change of capacitance received from the touch panel into a voltage signal, a correlated double sampling (CDS) block configured to convert the voltage signal into a differential signal and to sample each of the positive and the negative signals of the differential signal, and an integrator configured to accumulate a difference between the sampled positive and negative signals.

Abstract: A touch processor circuit includes a capacitance-to-voltage converter and an analog-to-digital converter. The capacitance-to-voltage converter converts an input signal transmitted from a touch sensor into a conversion signal corresponding to a capacitance of the touch sensor. The analog-to-digital converter digitizes the conversion signal transmitted from the capacitance-to-voltage converter and generates a digital value. The analog-to-digital converter includes a first converter, a second converter, and a combination logic circuit. The first converter calculates upper bits of the digital value based on the conversion signal during a first time period. The second converter calculates lower bits of the digital value based on a residue component signal transmitted from the first converter during a second time period. The combination logic circuit combines the upper bits and the lower bits and generates the digital value.

Abstract: A sensing device includes a touch panel including first and second sensor electrodes, and a touch panel controller acquiring a sensing signal from the touch panel and detecting a user input based on the sensing signal. The touch panel controller acquires the sensing signal from at least one of the first sensor electrodes and the second sensor electrodes in a first mode operating at a first power. The touch panel controller selects a first transmitting electrode, a second transmitting electrode, and receiving electrodes from one of the first sensor electrodes and the second sensor electrodes, inputs a first driving signal to the first transmitting electrode, and inputs a second driving signal having a phase difference of 180 degrees with respect to the first driving signal to the second transmitting electrode in a second mode operating at a second power and a third mode in which a sensing operation is performed.

Abstract: Provided are a semiconductor device and a semiconductor system, which can increase immunity against noises through tertiary correlated double sampling (CDS). The semiconductor device includes an amplifier that receives noise and a driving signal, resets for each predetermined period of the driving signal and samples the noise to generate first sampled noise. The first sampled noise includes multiple noise differences each occurring between consecutive reset points. A sampler performs second sampling and third sampling on the first sampled noise and performs fourth sampling on the second and third sampled noises. The first sampled noise includes first to third noise differences, the second sampled noise is a difference between the first and second noise differences, the third sampled noise is a difference between the second and third noise differences, and the fourth sampled noise is a difference between the second and third sampled noises.
