摘要： An electronic device includes a flexible substrate. The flexible substrate includes a first portion having a plurality of first conductive lines formed thereon, a second portion having a plurality of second conductive lines formed thereon, and an intermediate portion mechanically coupling the first portion to the second portion. The intermediate portion is configured to permit folding so that the first and second portions can be arranged back-to-back or face-to-face such that plurality of the second conductive lines and plurality of first conductive lines are oriented so as to cross one another to thereby form a capacitive sensing panel. A single connector is mechanically coupled to the first portion or the second portion, and electrically coupled to the first portion and the second portion but not electrically coupling the first portion to the second portion.

摘要： A video display includes a video display panel and a video display drive circuit configured to control a display on condition. A touch screen includes a touch screen panel (mounted on top of the video display panel) and a touch panel control and sense circuit configured to operate the touch screen panel in a self-capacitance mode. The touch panel control and sense circuit includes sense drive circuits configured to generate sense drive signals for application to sense lines of the touch screen panel. A controller controls actuation of the sense drive circuits so that the sense drive signals are synchronized to the display on condition. In an implementation, the leading edges of the sense drive signals are synchronized to the display on condition. In another implementation, a window is synchronized to the display on condition and the leading edges of the sense drive signals exhibit jitter within the window.

摘要： A touch screen device is configured with rows of conductors capable of receiving wireless signals from a stylus. When the stylus touches the touch screen, the stylus emits multiple wireless signals in different directions. The conductors receiving the emitted wireless signals provide the signals to circuitry that filters, amplifies, and digitizes the wireless signals, as received at each conductor. The magnitude of each conductor's received wireless signal is computed, and the computed magnitudes are used to determine the location of the stylus on the touch screen surface. The stylus is assumed to be closer to conductors receiving stronger signals than those receiving weaker signals.

摘要： An active stylus is capacitively coupled to a capacitive touch panel for communication. The active stylus operates in a wait mode to receive initial communications from the panel. In response to such receipt, the active stylus synchronizes to a repeating communications frame implementing time division multiplexing. Communications from the active stylus to the panel include: information communications; synchronization communications and communications specific for columns and/or rows of the panel. Communications from the panel to the active stylus may be addressed uniquely to the stylus or commonly to a group of styluses.
