  • Abstract
    In this paper, we introduce a new charge sensing circuit for a mutual-capacitive touch screen panel (TSP). The circuit senses charges in two stages: a sensing stage and an evaluation stage when the TSP is touched or untouched. This method establishes easier recognition of a touch event on the TSP and reduces the size of the on-chip sensing capacitors. The dynamic sensing range of this TSP is improved by 38% over that of a conventional TSP.
