    Abstract: For sensing a control point on a capacitive-type panel, first and second voltage signals are respectively received through two sets of receiving lines selected from N receiving lines in response to first and second charge/discharge signals transmitted through two sets of transmitting lines selected from M transmitting lines, respectively, during a first time period. Third and fourth voltage signals are received through two sets of receiving lines selected from the N receiving lines in response to third and fourth charge/discharge signals respectively transmitted through the two sets of transmitting lines, respectively, during a second time period. A characteristic value is generated according to the first, second, third and fourth voltage signals. Repeat the steps to generate characteristic values for neighboring regions defined by different combinations of transmitting lines and receiving lines. Position information of control point(s) on the capacitive-type panel is estimated accordingly.

    Abstract: A biological feature-sensing device for acquiring biological feature information by sensing a biological feature is provided. The biological feature-sensing device includes a capacitive touch panel and a control circuit. The capacitive touch panel includes signal transmitting lines and signal receiving lines. A first pitch of the signal transmitting lines or a second pitch of the signal receiving lines is greater than or equal to a minimum on-center spacing of the biological feature. The control circuit receives first and second voltage signals through two sets of signal receiving lines in response to first and second charge/discharge signals transmitted through two sets of signal transmitting lines, and generates a characteristic value according to the first and second voltage signals. Many characteristic values corresponding to different combinations of the signal transmitting lines and signal receiving lines are generated accordingly to form a characteristic value matrix representing the biological feature information.
