Abstract

A sensor pixel and a touch panel using the same are provided herein, wherein the touch panel has m scan lines and n readout lines. The sensor pixel includes a sensing capacitor, a readout transistor, a reset transistor, a base transistor, and a photo transistor. The photo transistor included in the sensor pixel produces a photo leakage current when it is exposed to a light. The light obstruction characteristic of the photo transistor is utilized to detect the locations of the touched sensor pixels. By proper timing control, the present invention not only can be applied to the multi-finger detection, but also is easy to be implemented.

Description

Technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a sensing pixel of a touch panel, and more particularly to a sensing pixel having a phototransistor to detect a touched position. Background technique [0002] With the vigorous development of electronic technology and the popularization of wireless communications and networks, portable devices with the advantages of lightness, thinness and shortness have gradually become a new generation of data access platforms. However, not all devices use common input / output (I / O) interfaces, such as keyboards or mice. Therefore, the touch panel is often used as a human-machine interface between humans and smart devices to perform control. [0003] Generally speaking, a resistive touch panel is composed of two conductive layers separated by a small space. When the user presses the touch panel, the two conductive layers will be connected to a certain point, so a voltage change will occur at this point. After an analog signal with a voltag...
