[0037] Example 1
[0038] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, a light-sensitive IC touch screen with a shielding cover comprises a glass substrate 1 and an ITO touch layer 3 provided on the lower surface of the display area 12 of the glass substrate 1;
[0039] The ITO touch layer 3 is bonded to the glass substrate 1 via OCA optical adhesive 31;
[0040] The non-display area 11 of the glass substrate 1 is bound with an FPC 2, and a light sensing IC 5 is provided on the lower surface of the FPC 2, and the FPC 2 avoids the light sensing IC 5;
[0041] An electromagnetic shielding cover 6 is welded around the photosensitive IC 5 .
[0042] Among them, a main black ink layer 13 is provided on the lower surface of the glass substrate 1 located in the non-display area 11, and the main black ink layer 13 is provided with a space-avoiding portion 4 directly above the photosensitive IC 5; a semi-transparent black ink layer 41 is provided on the lower surface of the glass substrate 1 at the space-avoiding portion 4; and a reverse-cover black light-shielding ink 14 is silk-screened on the lower surface of the main black ink layer 13.
[0043] This invention features a photosensitive IC 5 mounted on the lower surface of a glass substrate 1. The photosensitive IC 5 is partially obscured by a black ink layer 13, a black light-blocking ink layer 14, and an FPC 2. A semi-transparent black ink layer 41 is mounted on the obscured portion 4. This semi-transparent black ink layer 41 allows light to pass through the front of the glass substrate 1, through the semi-transparent black ink layer 41, and then through the obscured portion 4 of the FPC 2 to reach the photosensitive IC 5. This enables the OGS touchscreen to have a photosensitive function. The photosensitive IC 5 can be directly mounted on the lower surface of the FPC 2, adjusting the backlight brightness based on the intensity of external light, ultimately regulating the screen brightness. An electromagnetic shielding cover 6 is mounted on the surface of the photosensitive IC 5, possessing good impact resistance and wear resistance, effectively protecting the photosensitive IC 5 from electromagnetic signal interference from the touchscreen. The electromagnetic shielding cover 6 is low-cost, easy to install, and effectively improves the lifespan and sensitivity of the photosensitive IC 5, increasing production yield.
[0044] The electromagnetic shielding cover 6 may be a metal cover, such as made of metal materials such as stainless steel, copper, and iron, or a non-metal cover coated with electromagnetic shielding paint.
[0045] Furthermore, a first PI reinforcing plate 25 is provided on the upper surface of the FPC2 at the corresponding position of the photosensitive IC5, and the first PI reinforcing plate 25 avoids the photosensitive IC5.
[0046] Furthermore, a black double-sided adhesive 26 is attached to the lower surface of the first PI reinforcing plate 25 and the glass substrate 1, and the black double-sided adhesive 26 avoids the light-sensing IC5.
[0047] Example 2
[0048] As a further optimization of Example 1, in this embodiment, the glass substrate 1 is translucent black tempered glass. Using translucent black tempered glass reduces the transmittance of the viewing area. When the screen is off, the edges and the viewing area appear black, creating a more pronounced effect. This enhances the competitiveness of OGS touch screens and helps meet the growing quality demands of businesses.
[0049] Furthermore, a touch IC 21 is provided on the upper surface of the FPC2, and a steel sheet reinforcing plate 22 is provided on the lower surface of the FPC2 located at the touch IC 21. The thickness of the steel sheet reinforcing plate 22 is 0.2 mm.
[0050] Furthermore, the touch IC21 and the light-sensing IC5 are soldered to the surface of the FPC2 using SMT technology.
[0051] It's important to note that SMT, or surface mount technology, is an electronic component assembly technique used to solder electronic components directly to the surface of a printed circuit board (PCB), rather than through traditional plug-in assembly. SMT technology is widely used in the electronics manufacturing industry because it improves production efficiency, reduces circuit board size, lowers costs, and enables higher density and performance.
[0052] The main steps of SMT (Surface Mount Technology) involve precisely attaching surface mount components such as resistors, capacitors, and integrated circuits onto the surface of a PCB using automated equipment. Then, through processes like reflow soldering or wave soldering, the attached components are soldered to the PCB surface to form a reliable connection. Finally, various testing equipment is used to inspect and verify the soldering quality and the accuracy of component mounting. The advantages of SMT technology include high density, high reliability, space saving, cost reduction, and increased production efficiency. Therefore, it has become one of the mainstream assembly technologies in the electronics manufacturing industry and is widely used in the manufacturing process of various electronic products.
[0053] In another preferred implementation manner of this embodiment, a double-sided tape 23 is provided on the lower surface of the steel sheet reinforcement plate 22 , and the thickness of the double-sided tape 23 is 0.05 mm.
[0054] Furthermore, one end of the FPC2 is provided with a plug-in end, and a second PI reinforcing plate 24 is provided on the lower surface of the FPC2 located at the plug-in end to strengthen the plug-in end and facilitate plugging and unplugging of the plug-in end.
[0055] Example 3
[0056] like Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, in this embodiment, the light sensor IC5 includes a first TP / ALS_1V8 terminal 51, a first TP / ALS_SCL terminal 52 and a first TP / ALS_SDA terminal 53;
[0057] The touch IC 21 includes a second TP / ALS_1V8 terminal 211, a second TP / ALS_SCL terminal 212, and a second TP / ALS_SDA terminal 213.
[0058] The first TP / ALS_1V8 terminal 51 and the second TP / ALS_1V8 terminal 211 are in the same line.
[0059] The first TP / ALS_SCL terminal 52 and the second TP / ALS_SCL terminal 212 are collinear.
[0060] The first TP / ALS_SDA terminal 53 and the second TP / ALS_SDA terminal 213 are collinear.
[0061] In this embodiment, since the photosensitive IC5 and the touch IC21 share a 1.8V power supply line, an SCL clock signal line, and an SDA data signal line, the module connector connecting to the motherboard can have three fewer pins, resulting in a smaller size and a more competitive price. Reducing the number of peripheral electronic components and interface connector pins lowers module costs and allows for a more compact overall design.
[0062] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention rather than to limit them. Although the embodiments of the present invention are described in detail with reference to the preferred embodiments, ordinary technicians in this field should understand that the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention can still be modified or replaced by equivalents, and these modifications or equivalent replacements cannot cause the modified technical solutions to deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention.
