主动式电容笔作为带触摸屏的电子设备的主要外设输入配件,逐渐受到市场的关注。通常用户在使用主动式电容笔的过程中,除了正常书写新内容,也会有擦除已有内容的需求。
当前市场上主动式电容笔的擦除功能实现方式主要有两种:
第一种方式是基于电子设备端的软件实现,这种情况下,主动式电容笔仅通过笔尖发射信号,主动式电容笔和电子设备均无法通过笔尖信号来识别用户当前意图是书写或是擦除,在主动式电容笔的笔尖信号默认为书写模式的情况下,如果有擦除需求,需要通过电子设备端的软件设置将书写模式切换为擦除模式,此时主动式电容笔的笔尖信号用于进行擦除操作,擦除完成后,再切换到正常的书写模式。这种实现方法不需要主动式电容笔做特殊处理,通用型主动式电容笔都可以支持,但操作过程中需要手动切换模式,影响用户体验。
第二种方式是主动式电容笔端先识别出用户擦除行为意图,这种情况下,主动式电容笔仅的笔尖和笔尾均能发射信号,其中笔尾信号有别于笔尖信号,电子设备通过笔尾信号和笔尖信号的特征识别出是书写信号还是擦除信号;一种典型的方式是采用在笔尖与笔尾各设计一个发射电极分别实现书写和擦除功能,正常书写时,电子设备检测的是笔尖信号,当用户将笔身倒置用笔尾接触电子设备屏幕使用擦除功能时,电子设备检测的是笔尾信号,笔尖电极和笔帽电极发射信号的频率不同,从而方便电子设备识别用户的书写或者擦除行为意图。这种方式由于在主动式电容笔上设置两个信号发射端,将增加功耗和产品成本。

可选地,所述被动感应模块102包括如下压力传感器中的一种:压阻式压力传感器、电容式压力传感器、电感式压力传感器和压电式压力传感器。
在本实施例的一种方案中,所述被动感应模块102采用的压力传感器为压阻式压力传感器,具体为电阻应变片压力传感器,所述电阻应变片压力传感器的电阻应变片贴合在所述被动电极上,当被动电极接触电子设备发生形变时,电阻应变片相应地发生形变,根据电阻应变片的电阻值变化可获得相应的压力检测结果。
在本实施例的另一种方案中,所述被动感应模块102采用的压力传感器为电容式压力传感器,具体还包括一压力传感电极,所述压力传感电极与被动电极形成一电容,当所述被动电极受到压力发生位移或者形变时,所述被动感应模块102将获得所述电容的电容值或者电容变化值,从而获得相应的压力检测结果。
