[0002] Capacitive touch screen technology is working by using the current induction of human body. Capacitive touch screen is a four-layer composite glass screen, the inner surface and interlayer of glass screen are coated with an ITO layer, the outermost layer is a thin layer of silica glass protective layer, the interlayer ITO coating layer is used as the working surface, four electrodes are led out on the four corners, and the inner layer ITO is used as a shielding layer to ensure a good working environment. When the finger touches the metal layer, a coupling capacitor is formed between the user and the touch screen surface due to the human body electric field, and for high-frequency current, the capacitor is a direct conductor, so the finger absorbs a very small current from the contact point. The current flows out from the electrodes on the four corners of the touch screen, and the current flowing through the four electrodes is proportional to the distance from the finger to the four corners, and the controller obtains the position of the touch point by accurately calculating the proportion of the four currents.
