技术领域technical field
本发明涉及触控技术领域,尤其涉及电容式触摸结构、内嵌式触摸屏、以及显示装置及其扫描方法。The invention relates to the field of touch technology, in particular to a capacitive touch structure, an embedded touch screen, a display device and a scanning method thereof.
背景技术Background technique
随着显示技术的飞速发展,触摸屏(Touch Screen Panel)已经逐渐遍及人们的生活中。目前,触摸屏包括的触摸结构可以分为:互电容触摸结构和自电容触摸结构。对于自电容触摸结构,由于其触控感应的准确度和信噪比比较高,因而受到了各大面板厂家青睐。With the rapid development of display technology, touch screen panels (Touch Screen Panels) have gradually spread in people's lives. At present, the touch structures included in the touch screen can be divided into: a mutual capacitance touch structure and a self-capacitance touch structure. As for the self-capacitance touch structure, due to its high accuracy of touch sensing and relatively high signal-to-noise ratio, it is favored by major panel manufacturers.
目前,自电容触摸结构利用自电容的原理实现检测手指触摸位置,具体为:在触摸结构中设置多个同层设置且相互绝缘的自电容电极,当人体未触碰屏幕时,各自电容电极所承受的电容为一固定值,当人体触碰屏幕时,触碰位置对应的自电容电极所承受的电容为固定值叠加人体电容,触控侦测芯片在触控时间段通过检测各自电容电极的电容值变化可以判断出触控位置。At present, the self-capacitance touch structure uses the principle of self-capacitance to detect the touch position of the finger. Specifically, a plurality of self-capacitance electrodes arranged on the same layer and insulated from each other are set in the touch structure. The capacitance to bear is a fixed value. When the human body touches the screen, the capacitance of the self-capacitance electrode corresponding to the touch position is a fixed value and the capacitance of the human body is superimposed. The touch detection chip detects the capacitance of each capacitance electrode during the touch period. The change of the capacitance value can determine the touch position.
在自电容触摸结构中,每一个自电容电极需要通过单独的引出线与触控侦测芯片连接,如图1a和图1b所示,每条引出线具体包括:将自电容电极1连接至触摸屏的边框处的导线2,以及设置在边框处用于将自电容电极1导通至触控侦测芯片的接线端子3的周边走线4;其中,在图1a中,导线2和自电容电极1同层设置;而在图1b中,自电容电极1和导线2异层设置,且自电容电极1与对应的导线2通过过孔5电性连接。In the self-capacitance touch structure, each self-capacitance electrode needs to be connected to the touch detection chip through a separate lead-out line, as shown in Figure 1a and Figure 1b, each lead-out line specifically includes: connecting the self-capacitance electrode 1 to the touch screen The wire 2 at the frame of the frame, and the peripheral wiring 4 arranged at the frame for conducting the self-capacitance electrode 1 to the connection terminal 3 of the touch detection chip; wherein, in FIG. 1a, the wire 2 and the self-capacitance electrode 1 are arranged on the same layer; while in FIG.
而且,在具体实施时,自电容电极的数量会非常多,以每个自电容电极的所占面积为5mm*5mm为例,5寸的液晶显示屏就需要264个自电容电极,若将每个自电容电极设计的更小一些,则会有更多的自电容电极,使得与自电容 电极连接的导线数量非常多,从而会造成一些问题,比如,导线数量多会使得设置在边框处的与导线一一对应连接的周边走线数量也会非常多,不利于窄边框设计;或者,在导线和自电容电极同层设置时,导线数量多会造成触控盲区比较大。And, in concrete implementation, the quantity of self-capacitance electrode can be very much, be 5mm*5mm as example with the occupied area of each self-capacitance electrode, 5 inches liquid crystal screen just needs 264 self-capacitance electrodes, if each If the self-capacitance electrode design is smaller, there will be more self-capacitance electrodes, so that the number of wires connected to the self-capacitance electrodes is very large, which will cause some problems. There will also be a large number of peripheral traces connected to the wires in one-to-one correspondence, which is not conducive to the narrow frame design; or, when the wires and self-capacitance electrodes are arranged on the same layer, the large number of wires will cause a relatively large touch blind area.
综上所述,目前,自电容触摸结构中的自电容电极的数量非常多,使得与自电容电极连接的导线数量也非常多,从而会造成不利于窄边框设计和触控盲区比较大等问题。To sum up, at present, the number of self-capacitance electrodes in the self-capacitance touch structure is very large, so that the number of wires connected to the self-capacitance electrodes is also very large, which will cause problems such as unfavorable narrow frame design and relatively large touch blind area. .

The location is touched; and when the first wire connected to the touched self-capacitance electrode is electrically connected to at least two self-capacitance electrodes, since the at least two self-capacitance electrodes are respectively located in different areas, each of the self-capacitance electrodes Regional electrodes are arranged in the above regions, and the second wires electrically connected to the regional electrodes in each region are different.

For example, as shown in FIG. The self-capacitance electrodes 10 are respectively located in the upper and lower regions, and the shape of the self-capacitance electrodes 10 in the upper region is irregular.
实施中,在自电容电极的形状为规则形状时,其制作复杂度比较低。In practice, when the shape of the self-capacitance electrode is a regular shape, its manufacturing complexity is relatively low.

When the human body does not touch the screen, the capacitance of the area electrodes in each area is a fixed value. When the human body touches the screen, the touch The capacitance of the area electrodes in the area where the position is located is a fixed value superimposed on the human body capacitance.

较佳地,在触摸扫描时间内,触控侦测芯片也可以分时向各区域电极、以及各自电容电极施加驱动信号;Preferably, during the touch scanning time, the touch detection chip can also apply driving signals to the electrodes in each area and the respective capacitive electrodes in time division;
比如,如图8c所示,在触控时间段(Touch),触控侦测芯片分时向各区域电极pad1……padm,以及各自电容电极Cx1……Cxn施加驱动信号;同时,接收各自电容电极Cx1……Cxn和各区域电极pad1……padm的反馈信号,通 过对反馈信号的分析,判断触控位置,以实现触控功能。For example, as shown in Figure 8c, during the touch period (Touch), the touch detection chip applies drive signals to the electrodes pad1...padm of each area and the respective capacitor electrodes Cx1...Cxn in time-sharing; The feedback signals of the electrodes Cx1...Cxn and the electrodes pad1...padm in each region are analyzed to determine the touch position, so as to realize the touch function.
较佳地,在分时向各自电容电极施加驱动信号时,触控侦测芯片可以横向逐个扫描各自电容电极,以分时向各自电容电极施加驱动信号;也可以竖向逐个扫描各自电容电极,以分时向各自电容电极施加驱动信号。Preferably, when applying drive signals to respective capacitive electrodes in time-division, the touch detection chip can horizontally scan respective capacitive electrodes one by one to apply drive signals to respective capacitive electrodes in time-division; it can also vertically scan respective capacitive electrodes one by one, The drive signal is applied to the respective capacitor electrodes in time division.
