Abstract

See full text

A system and method for increasing a scanning rate, reducing the effects of noise and reducing power consumption when using a touch sensor having an electrode grid formed by co-planar but orthogonal XY electrodes, wherein the touch sensor may be used to determine the position of an object on a surface of the touch sensor in two measurement cycles, one set of electrodes functioning as a single large drive electrode and the other set of electrodes functioning as a single large sense electrode for a first measurement cycle, then the functions being switched for a second measurement cycle.
