    Abstract: A capacitive sensing system includes a capacitive sensing panel with drive lines and sense lines. Each drive line includes a drive circuit. A code generator operates to generate modulation codes. A drive controller generates drive signals wherein each drive signal is modulated by one of the modulation codes. The generated drive signals are applied to the drive lines through the drive circuits. The drive controller operates to simultaneously generate the drive signals for application to a corresponding group of drive lines during a drive period. Separate groups of drive lines are sequentially driven with the same drive signals during drive periods that only partially overlap.

    Abstract: A device includes a touch and pressure sensitive screen having touch pressure sensors and a controller. The controller acquires touch pressure data from the plurality of touch pressure sensors. For each touch pressure sensor, the controller determines whether the touch pressure data from that touch pressure sensor is indicative of abnormal operation of that touch pressure sensor. Where no abnormal operation is indicated, the controller sums the touch pressure data from each of the touch pressure sensors to produce a touch pressure output. Where abnormal operation is indicated, the controller sums the touch pressure data from each of the touch pressure sensors and multiply the sum by a correction factor to produce the touch pressure output.
