Abstract:
A capacitive-image sensing system for use in an information processing system. The information processing system comprises a sensing panel. The capacitive-image sensing system comprises: a first capacitive sensing device disposed in a first region of the sensing panel and having a first capacitive-image sensing characteristic; and a second capacitive sensing device disposed in a second region of the sensing panel and having a second capacitive-image sensing characteristic, wherein the second capacitive-image sensing characteristic is different from the first capacitive-image sensing characteristic. For example, the first capacitive-image sensing characteristic includes a first capacitive-image sensing resolution and/or a first capacitive-image sensing distance from a touch plane of the capacitive-image sensing system, and the second capacitive-image sensing characteristic includes a second capacitive-image sensing resolution and/or a second capacitive-image sensing distance from the touch plane of the capacitive-image sensing system.
Abstract:
A driving signal is outputted to each of the first and second capacitors in a measurement period so that voltage changes occur at the first and second capacitors. First and second modulating voltage signals are provided for the first and the second capacitors in the measurement period. An output signal in a first state or a second state according to a voltage difference between the first and second capacitors is generated. One of the voltage values of the first and second modulating voltage is automatically adjusted according to the output signal. A characteristic value for indicating a capacitance difference between the first capacitor and the second capacitor, which correlates to a length of time from a start point of the measurement period to a specified point that a condition change of the output signal occurs or a slope of the first or second modulating voltage signal, is generated.

The controlled device of the touch control system is controlled according to the values of the variables.
Abstract:
A sense signal is continuously received from a capacitive touch-sensing panel. A reference signal is set or adjusted to have a level of the sense signal be in a first relation to that of the reference signal in an initial state, and the sense signal is compared with the reference signal to generate a comparison signal in a sensing state. The comparison signal is outputted with a first logic level when a level of the sense signal is in the first relation to a level of the reference signal, and outputted with a second logic level when a level of the sense signal is in a second relation to a level of the reference signal. Whether a touch action is conducted is determined according to a compared result of occurrences of the first and second logic levels of the comparison signal generated within a preset time period.
