摘要:
A touch panel system in which power consumption is reduced, detection sensitivity is enhanced, a controller for the touch panel system, and a method of operating the system. Touch panel system includes status detecting portion having status signal generating portions generating a status signal indicative of a close status of an indicator, a position calculating portion processing the status signal, thereby calculating a position of the indicator on a detecting surface, and a region setting portion for updating an effective region set in the detecting surface P based on the position of the indicator which is calculated by the position calculating portion. A first operation causes the status signal generating portions SL and DL to selectively generate a status signal and a second operation causes the position calculating portion to selectively process the status signals generated by the status signal generating portions SL and DL.

A touch panel device (1) detecting a finger operation and a pen operation, the touch panel device includes: a touching object determining section (23) for determining whether or not a touch operation is the finger operation or the pen operation, depending on (a) whether or not a value outputted from a sensor is within a range indicated by a finger threshold value and (b) whether or not the value outputted from the sensor is within a range indicated by a pen threshold value, the touching object determining section (23) making no determination as to whether or not the touch operation in an Lp area is the pen operation but making a determination only as to whether or not the touch operation in the Lp area is the finger operation, depending on whether or not the value outputted from the sensor is in the range indicated by the finger threshold value.

A detecting section of a touch sensor system detects a hand placing region in accordance with (i) a strength threshold for determining a strength of an electrostatic capacitance signal in a detection region so as to determine whether or not a touch input is carried out by a finger and (ii) a peripheral threshold which is lower than the strength threshold and is set so as to determine strengths of electrostatic capacitance signals in a plurality of peripheral regions surrounding the detection region.
