AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing capacitive touch buttons are insufficient in terms of sensitivity and detection accuracy, especially since the voltage change after a finger presses is not significant, resulting in inaccurate touch detection.

Method used

By performing two charge transfers on the first capacitor, and then differentially amplifying the voltages of the second and third capacitors, the influence of parasitic capacitance is reduced, and the detection voltage is output through the differential amplifier to improve detection accuracy and sensitivity.

Benefits of technology

This invention enables the output voltage of the differential amplifier to be nearly linearly correlated with the capacitance under finger pressure, thereby increasing the output voltage range and improving the accuracy and sensitivity of touch detection.
