Abstract

See full text

In one embodiment, an apparatus includes a drive electrode, a sense electrode, a detector, and a controller. The drive electrode is stimulated by an electric signal that has a frequency that varies in time. The sense electrode is capacitatively coupled to the drive electrode. The detector performs a measurement associated with the sense electrode. The controller determines whether a touch on the touch sensor occurred by determining whether the measurement deviates from an expected value by more than an amount.
