Abstract: A level shifter circuit which includes a cross-coupled latch and a set-reset latch is introduced. The level shifter circuit includes a first input node, a second input node and a plurality of switches. The first input node and the second input node are configured to receive a first digital input signal and a second digital input signal, respectively. The plurality of switches are configured to be switched on or off according to at least one control signal to output a first output signal and a second output signal. The set-reset latch is coupled to the cross-coupled latch and includes a set input node, a reset input node and an output node. The set input node and the reset input node are configured to receive the first output signal and the second output signal of the cross-coupled latch, respectively. The output node outputs a level-shifted output signal according to the first output signal and the second output signal of the cross-coupled latch. A method adapted to a level shifter circuit is also introduced.

Abstract: The disclosure provides a touch device and an operation method thereof. A touch panel of the touch device is divided into a plurality of stylus connection areas. During a first discovery period, the stylus connection areas detect a stylus one by one in a first scan order. When the stylus is located in one of the stylus connection areas (a hit area), the first discovery period is ended to enter a normal period, and the hit area establishes a connection to the stylus. When the connection between the stylus and the touch panel is interrupted, the normal period is ended to enter a second discovery period, and the first scan order is adjusted to a second scan order according to the hit area in the normal period. During the second discovery period, the stylus connection areas detect the stylus one by one in the second scan order.
