Abstract:
Provided is a touch detection device, touch detection method, and touch screen panel, which detects a touch signal by detecting a driving back phenomenon occurring in a touch pad by a driving voltage applied to a driving capacitor, and a display device with a built-in touch screen panel. The touch detection device that is added on top of a display device and detects occurrence of a touch capacitance (Ct) by an approach of a bodily finger (25) or a touch input instrument such as a conductor similar to the bodily finger, the touch detection device comprising: a touch pad (10) that forms the touch capacitance (Ct) between the touch input instrument and the touch pad; a driving capacitor (Cdrv) whose one side is connected to the touch pad (10) and to the other side of which a driving voltage for detection of a touch input is applied; a common voltage detector that detects a common voltage generated from the display device; a driving voltage generator that generates the driving voltage in synchronization with the common voltage; and a touch detector that is connected to the touch pad (10), and that detects a touch signal by using a driving back phenomenon when the touch capacitance (Ct) is added to the driving capacitor (Cdrv) according to occurrence or non-occurrence of a touch in the touch input instrument. A touch signal is detected while avoiding a point in time of a change of a common voltage state, and a driving voltage is applied through a driving capacitor connected to a touch detector, to thus detect whether or not a driving back phenomenon occurs in the touch detector and to thereby acquire a touch signal. Accordingly, an influence due to parasitic capacitance generated by noise, coupling phenomenon or other factors is minimized, to thus acquire a touch signal stably.
Abstract:
Provided is a touch input detection method that detects a contact or approach of a touch input means (90) such as a finger of a human body, an electric conductor or a touch pen on a touch panel (10) and produces an input signal. The touch input detection method includes the steps of: (a) detecting a first touch input; (b) calculating an area where the first touch input has been detected; (c) detecting a second touch input that occurs at a predetermined time interval after occurrence of the first touch input; (d) calculating an area where the second touch input has been detected; and (e) judging a change in the areas from the first touch input to the second touch input to thus produce a zooming signal. Accordingly, a zooming signal is produced according to a change in an area of a touch input, to thus implement a zoom gesture very simply, to also realize the zoom gesture with only one finger, and to thereby achieve a touch input operation compactly.
Abstract:
Provided is a touch cell structure for a touch panel in which a touch cell is configured into a new pad to gate mode in order to solve a problem of a conventional capacitive-type touch input device. The touch cell structure includes: a conductive pad that forms an electrostatic capacitance with respect to a touch unit when a finger of a human body or the touch unit having an electrical characteristic similar to the finger approaches the conductive pad within a predetermined distance; and a three-terminal type switching device whose gate terminal is connected with the conductive pad and whose output signal is changed in correspondence to a change in electric potential of the gate terminal of the three-terminal type switching device by the electrostatic capacitance between the touch unit and the conductive pad. Since the potential of the gate terminal of the switching device is determined by an electrostatic capacitance formed in the conductive pad, a difference of the output signal output from the switching device becomes large depending on whether a touch input occurs or not.

Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method for improving detection sensitivity of an object capacitance by applying driving voltages having different phases to different driving signal lines to reduce the amplitude of a second sensing signal and increasing the difference between the first sensing signal and the second sensing signal. In addition, a driving voltage of a reverse phase is applied to the CDAs that do not detect an object, thereby contributing to an additional sensitivity improvement. The detection sensitivity of object capacitance is improved by increasing a ratio of charges stolen by a driving voltage in a reverse phase applied to a plurality of driving CDA compared to charges supplied by a driving voltage applied to a pair of driving CDA.
Abstract:
The present invention involves driving multiple capacitors, including a shielding capacitance (Cin_sd), to minimize voltage fluctuations detected on the CDA signal line (200), thereby enhancing the resolution of the ADC. The additional capacitance (Cobj) generated between the CDA (100) and the object (20) due to the appearance of the object (20) is detected in the form of voltage. By analyzing with an ADC of improved resolution, it is possible to detect the presence of the object (20) more reliably.
