Technical field
The invention belongs to projection-type capacitive touch screen and touch screen control system field, be specifically related to a kind of time domain noise reduction method utilizing Spatial Difference, for the impact of accurate stress release treatment on touch-control system, improve capacitance plate antijamming capability.
Background technology
Projection-type capacitive touch screen system, shields (hereinafter referred to as " capacitance plate ") by projecting type capacitor and touch screen controller (hereinafter referred to as " touch-control circuit ") forms.Capacitance plate is made up of base material and sensor array.Substrate material has glass, PET etc., comprises opaque base material.Sensor array is many has the line of induction of given shape to arrange regularly the array formed, and the line of induction uses indium stannum alloy (ITO) or carbon or other conductive materials to make.In electrical connection, the line of induction of sensor array is directly connected with the port of touch-control circuit.Touch-control circuit is by circuit board, and electronic devices and components are formed.Circuit board can be ordinary circuit board (PCB) or flexible PCB (FPC), for connecting electronic devices and components.Electronic devices and components comprise Passive components, as Resistor-Capacitor Unit and function element, as special touch-control integrated circuit (IC) chip.Function element contains analog circuitry processes device, for the line of induction of driving sensor array, or reads signal from the line of induction of sensor array.Microprocessor (MCU) or digital signal processor (DSP) is also comprised, for realizing specific calculation process (related algorithm), to determine the duty obtaining sensor array in function element.Also storer is comprised in touch-control circuit, for storage program (Firmware), status data and operation result.Touch-control circuit also comprises clock generator, produces high accurate clock signal for synchronous between touch-control circuit each functional module, and with the sequential control of host information interactive process, the clock period does not change with the change of temperature and voltage substantially.Touch-control circuit and outside connection, be the line of induction of sensor array, another side is power lead and other signals of communication of host (host).Host refers to cell phone mainboard, computer main board or other application systems.
The basic functional principle of projection-type capacitive touch screen system is, touch-control circuit is according to pre-determined Time and place order, the line of induction of driving sensor array a group by a group, and read signal from the line of induction of driving sensor array, then carry out algorithm process.In certain particular moment, the line of induction that this group analog circuitry processes device drives or reads or line of induction group, be called " the target line of induction ".Control the circuit of this time and space order, be called selection control circuit.When the line of induction inside all sensors array has been processed as the target line of induction, be called a frame (Frame).The action forever repeating every frame of projection-type capacitive touch screen system, unless host order projection-type capacitive touch screen system stops action.
In projection-type capacitive touch screen system, main exist two kinds of electronic signal noise disturbing effects, is called for short noise.The first is electromagnetic interference (EMI), and English is Electro Magnetic Interference, and be called for short EMI, this noise mainly comes from the interference of periphery electron device for the sensor of capacitive touch screen.The second noise be finger close to or bring when touching capacitive touch screen sensor.Noise drastically influence degree of stability and the handling of touch-control system.Therefore, for the deviser of capacitive touch screen system, how setting up a stable touch-control system effectively reliably in actual application environment, is a challenge.
EMI noise, such as be coupled to the switching noise of touch-control system from LCDs, or come from the noise of mobile phone radio frequency electron device, also have the noise etc. from application processor feed-in, these noises significantly reduce the effect with useful signal in projection-type capacitive touch screen system, both signal to noise ratio (S/N ratio)s.No matter point whether close to or touch the sensor of touch-screen, these EMI noises all can be coupled in the middle of sensor signal path.Noise size is relevant with the capacitance of sensor in projection-type capacitive touch screen system.Fig. 1 shows the sensor signal being subject to the impact of LCDs switching noise.The transverse axis of Fig. 1 is clock periodicity, is equivalent to the time, and the longitudinal axis represents the signal of 21 lines of induction, and Fig. 1 is overall close to black, represents that EMI interference is extensively distributed in time and touch-screen spatially.
Some noises are had to disturb in addition, such as power supply noise, or the specific noise of device, they are with characteristic noise frequency, these interference also can be coupled on the sensor of projection-type capacitive touch screen system by equal proportion, its proportionate relationship is that the finger capacitance (Cf) of touch is than touch-control system intrinsic capacity (Cs). Fig. 2 depicts under such interference, the signal sensed in touch-screen system.The transverse axis of Fig. 2 is clock number, is equivalent to the time, and the longitudinal axis illustrates the signal of 2 lines of induction, by the interference obviously can seeing the external noise that finger is introduced in figure.
Current most of projection-type self-capacitance (self projective capacitance, be called for short self-PROCAP) have employed induction arranged side by side (parallel sensing) method in system or projection-type mutual capacitance (mutual projective capacitance is called for short mutual-PROCAP) system.Such method needs complicated front end sensor circuit and loaded down with trivial details follow-up signal process.In consumption processing power, need the complexity of circuit, and all need above the power consumption that consumes of practical function to improve.
In correlative technology field, Maxim Integrated Products Inc. of the U.S. is in China and have submitted patented claim " for using the noise cancellation technique of the capacitance touch screen controller of differential sensing " abroad, and its Chinese Patent Application No. is 201110108199.6.Although this technology uses the concept of adjacent differential, due to the restriction of the analog processor number that it uses, and there is the restriction etc. that the adjacent line of induction effectively can not eliminate finger introducing noise, the effect of its stress release treatment needs to improve further.

(3.2) select with reference to the line of induction.After touch-control circuit have selected the target line of induction, next for the target line of induction is selected with reference to the line of induction.Refer to calculate the action that capacitance plate is pointed more accurately with reference to the line of induction, get rid of ambient noise interference impact, and the one or more lines of induction chosen, these lines of induction are lines of induction existing on touch-screen, and the state with reference to the line of induction is used for the state computation of the target line of induction.The number of the reference line of induction that the present invention uses, different along with the finger number difference of capacitance plate system needs detecting process, capacitance plate system needs the finger number detecting process more, and the number of the reference line of induction of needs is more.Such as detect the capacitance plate system of 2 fingers, the reference line of induction number of needs, be less than reference line of induction number required in the capacitance plate system of detecting 5 finger.To select with reference to the method for the line of induction can be random or according to prior setting order.Can be random with reference to the line of induction, but be not that any line of induction of sensor array can be selected as with reference to the line of induction.Along with the difference of noise source needing stress release treatment, choose these alternative conditions with reference to the lines of induction different, namely with reference to the line of induction and the target line of induction minimum space apart from or the restrictive condition of maximum space distance different.For eliminating EMI noise impact, need 2, the chosen distance target line of induction interval line of induction apart from the above line of induction as with reference to the line of induction, can determine with further reference to the relative position of the current goal line of induction in induction arrays in the selection put with reference to the line of induction before this; In order to be coupled into the noise of induction system when eliminating finger touching capacitance plate, then need 2, the chosen distance target line of induction interval line of induction apart from the following line of induction as the reference line of induction; Can determine with further reference to the relative position of the current goal line of induction in induction arrays in the selection put with reference to the line of induction before this, such as, select the line of induction near touch screen center portion as the reference line of induction of elimination EMI noise as far as possible.Notice and select process and the select target line of induction with reference to the line of induction to have priority orders, be i.e. the first select target line of induction, then select the reference line of induction according to the target line of induction.At any time, the target line of induction, can not become the reference line of induction of himself.Identical with the target line of induction, the concrete electrical action with reference to the line of induction is selected to be that analog processor is connected to reference to the line of induction by electronic switch by control circuit, this electronic switch switches connection procedure, with following 4th step touch screen controller drive read the line of induction process compared with and of short duration, expend time in hardly.
4th step, reads flow process according to predetermined driving, obtains the target line of induction and the state with reference to the line of induction.This process mainly divides 3 parts.Whole process is identical for the target line of induction with reference to the line of induction.
(4.1) process (Driving) is driven.Driving process is the charge and discharge process of analog processor for the line of induction, and this process may need several clock period to complete.Clock can produce in capacitance plate internal system, also can from host (host).Discharge and recharge has combinationally used the constant current source of timesharing adjustable current, and the constant pressure source of timesharing adjustable voltage.
(4.2) induction process (Sensing).Multidigit analog to digital converter (ADC) in analog processor by the analog voltage signal digitizing on the line of induction, then through calibration process etc., is transformed to digital quantity.Only comprise a small amount of storage space in analog processor, not as the use of the multiple line of induction state of long storage time, can power consumption be saved like this and save cost.
(4.3) data read process (Reading).According to algorithm requirement, digital processing unit (comprising MCU or DSP) reads the current goal line of induction and the state with reference to the line of induction in time from analog processor, by deposit data in the storage space deserved, for the 5th step process below.Notice that reading process relates to multiple analog processor, and in each analog processor, store the limited storage space of line of induction state, so the reading handling process of data needs to complete in time before analog processor internal storage unit is refreshed.The reading transfer process of data, can use the normal W method of memory of digital processing unit, also can use direct memory reading/writing method (DMA).
5th step, digital processing unit is according to the state from the current target line of induction, with reference to the state of the line of induction, the historic state of the target line of induction, the align mode of the target line of induction, calculating judges whether the current goal line of induction has finger movement, and records finger movement departure, upgrades historic state.In the middle of this step, key content comprises:
(5.1) historic state of the target line of induction, when referring to the last identical line of induction as the target line of induction, reads and is stored in the line of induction state value deserving position.
(5.2) target line of induction align mode is that capacitance plate calibrates the parameter obtained, specifically see the description in (8.1) of the 8th step.
(5.3) whether the current goal line of induction has finger movement and finger movement departure, main calculation methods is multiple weighting subtractions, and these weighting subtraction results contrast, be then select the effective information of certain result of storage to be stored in designated space position as the departure of finger movement.Notice that departure has extracted the effective information of weighting subtraction in order to reduce computational complexity and to reduce storage space.
For 2 finger projection-type capacitive touch screen systems, to host, touch-control circuit reports that 2 are independently pointed coordinate, system is subject to the impact of EMI interference, and uses this patent to eliminate this impact.In exemplary systems of this 2 finger, with T(t) represent the state of working sensor t, when applying this patent, use the reference sensor of 3 spaced apart preset, its state D1(t), D2(t), D3(t) represent.
(5.3.1) the time domain noise reduction method in order to ensure Spatial Difference effectively can provide reference signal, space region every reference sensor between relative position must keep 2 sensor distance or more.
(5.3.2), when being located at time t, label is the signal that the working sensor of n receives is SIGT(t n), simultaneously space region every the signal of 3 reference sensors be respectively SIG d1(t n), SIG d2(t n), SIG d3(t n).So can set up one group of difference formula by these data, based on the output signal sampled, derive following absolute difference score value:
DI FF TD1(t n)=ABS(SIG T(t n)-SIG D1(t n));
DI FF TD2(t n)=ABS(SIG T(t n)-SIG D2(t n));
DI FF TD3(t n)=ABS(SIG T(t n)-SIG D3(t n));
In Fig. 4 of the present invention, because length and font size reason, use symbol Sdt1(), Sdt2(), Sdt3() and, represent DI FF tD1(), DI FF tD2(), DI FF tD3(); Use ST() represent SIG t(), uses SD1(), SD2(), SD3() and represent SIG d1(), SIG d2(), SIG d3().
To DIFF tD1(t n), DIFF tD2(t n) and DIFF tD3(t n) do following analysis.In following analysis table, " FU_th " indicates the threshold value without finger signal; " FD_th " represents the thresholding detecting finger signal, and " Ref " is effective reference signal; " Odt " is the useful signal output valve after analyzing; O1, O2, O3 are aforementioned DIFF tD1(), DIFF tD2(), DIFF tD3() is own, or gets its significance bit, or it is according to the result after specific formulation amplification, and its amplification method can be Linear Amplifer or Image magnify.Gauge outfit, namely front 2 row of form illustrate working sensor and space region every reference sensor between associate.Such as the mark of T & D1 is the relation of working sensor T and reference sensor D1, below analogizes.
Due to SIG t(t n), SIG d1(t n), SIG d2(t n), SIG d3(t n) in the identical time with identical Space Coupling to identical noise, so DIFF tD1(t n), DIFF tD2(t n) and DIFF tD3(t n) result of signal differential eliminates noise figure.
For 2 finger touch systems, 3 reference sensors can be used; System also can only arrange 2 reference sensors by optimizing.
Above-mentioned exemplary method, its algorithm and framework can be in use to many finger projection-type capacitive touch screen systems.Many microgrippers can report more than 3 or 3 coordinates pointed of same time to host.In order to obtain the accurate judgement to EMI noise, need the restriction of observing minimum transducer spacing, on the other hand, for obtaining the impact of finger feed-in noise, also need to observe the restriction of maximum sensor distance, linear with reference sensor number in the complexity putting process before this.
6th step, according to the content in the 3rd step, be exactly according to set line of induction choosing method, choose the next target line of induction in sensor matrices and with reference to the line of induction.Method step is identical with the 3rd step, then carries out the process of the 4th step the 5th step; Repeat the three the 4 5th steps, until each article of line of induction of capacitance plate all completes the process of the 345 step as the target line of induction, be referred to as a frame (Frame).
Fig. 4 illustrates above-mentioned 5th step and the 6th step and drives the process flow diagram reading and judge, example shown in figure is that sensor array shows 32 lines of induction, and the select target line of induction is according to 1,2 ... the label order of 32 is carried out.
7th step, often complete a frame process after, digital processing unit is according to the total data of existing sensor array between the particular memory storing pocket, and judge the situation of finger touch, main process comprises:
(7.1) finger touch situations is calculated and record according to current array.This process mainly picks out a few line of induction information, and there is a big difference for the status information that they retain in storage space and other most lines of induction, and the absolute value of such as signal exceedes certain threshold value preset.
(7.2) in order to reduce touch-screen system wrong report, algorithm removes isolated " pseudo-touching " point, such as: " finger touch " that happen suddenly over time and space, should be removed simultaneously.Temporal " burst finger touch event " is that finger signal is flashed in frame history, and it is stable occurs that frame number is less than preset value, such as, only in 1 frame, occur finger signal, and the interval of frame is 1/10000 second; Such signal demand is excluded." burst finger signal " spatially, refer in specific locus, finger only can not touch the only a few line of induction in sensor array, such as near the tip of sensor, as long as there is finger, only can not touch a tip, necessarily also touch other sensors near tip; Therefore, this touch signal spatially " flashed " is that the noise factor of some the unknown produces, should be deleted.
(7.3) calculate finger coordinate points with interpolation or spline method, or claim touch point; And judge the track distribution of many fingers, calculate gesture or gesture trend.This part mainly comprises the method using specific numerical evaluation, and interpolation goes out coordinate points accurately, because when finger touches touch-screen, its scope is not limited to a sensor, may between several sensing station, and interpolation method can be linear, or secondary, or batten.Another main processes is the track calculating out finger operation according to frame history, or anticipation finger runs possible track trend.
(7.4) when host requires, to host report finger coordinate, track, gesture.
8th step, result according to the 7th step, judge disposal route and the time interval of next frame, mainly contain five kinds of situations:
(8.1) during the 7th step, receive host's order or perceive default special touch manner, such as receive the instruction directly stopping the subsequent operation of this frame and return, or the preset mode that all lines of induction are all touched on touch screen, then complete the corresponding operation of process, then return aforementioned 3rd step.
(8.2) the 7th steps do not detect that any finger is touched, and several frame does not detect finger signal above.Now, judge that capacitance plate is in operatorless pattern, at this moment relieving system processing speed, such as, reduce system clock frequency, then returns aforementioned 3rd step.
(8.3) in the 7th step, detect finger touch, have and judge it is not noise signal from space distribution, and the data not having finger touch completely of former frame.Now, judgement is that finger starts to touch capacitance plate, at this moment accelerates system processing speed, such as, improve system clock frequency and then return aforementioned 3rd step.Or the situation near the line of induction taking a sample test finger signal, namely when system operating frequency is constant, next frame is made up of half or less line of induction, repeat the three to the seven step, result is in identical time range, complete 2 times or more frame processing speeds doubly, because the line of induction sum processing every frame reduces by half or less.
(8.4) normal operating conditions, returns the 3rd step.
(8.5) enter battery saving mode according to host's instruction, stop all work or some work, enter the 9th step.
9th step, the order of wait host, enter the 3rd step, or again powered after power-off, automatically enter the 3rd step.
Facts have proved, the inventive method effectively can reduce noise effect.Fig. 5 and Fig. 6 represent respectively Fig. 1 and Fig. 2 remove noise after result, can find out at a glance and to be removed in the noise effect of Fig. 1 and Fig. 2.Fig. 1 and Fig. 5 is many objectives line of induction of sensor array, with clock periodicity, i.e. and the time, the change of line of induction state value, in Fig. 1, line of induction state is subject to the impact of EMI noise, almost cannot identification, in Fig. 5, noise effect is eliminated, can be clear that the change of finger signal.Shown in Fig. 2 and Fig. 6 is 2 specific lines of induction, and the transverse axis of drawing is clock periodicity, and the longitudinal axis is state value, in Fig. 2, signal is subject to pointing the impact introducing noise, amplitude cannot accurately judge, Fig. 6 is that 2 lines of induction are eliminated the effects of the act later state, accurately can obtain state value.
The present invention is owing to effectively eliminating common mode voltage transient noise, the wave noise of power supply, the radiated noise of external environment of LCD self, save system resource overhead, improve the yield rate of product, the finger trace improving capacitance touch control screen detects degree of accuracy.
In this description, the present invention is described with reference to its particular instance.But still can make various amendment and conversion obviously, and not deviate from scope of the present invention, these improvements and modifications also should be considered as protection scope of the present invention.
