Touch panel and electronic device using same

Abstract

The invention provides a touch panel and an electronic device using the same. The touch panel comprises a first flexible substrate and a sensing structure, wherein the sensing structure is arranged on the first flexible substrate and comprises at least one first sensing electrode, at least two second sensing electrodes, at least one connection structure and at least one insulation structure; the second sensing electrodes are arranged on the two sides of the first sensing electrode respectively and not directly connected; the connection structure is electrically connected with the two second sensing electrodes and not electrically connected with the first sensing electrode; the connection structure is made of nonmetal conductive materials or compounds; and the insulation structure is at least partially arranged among the connection structure, the two second sensing electrodes and the first sensing electrode. As the touch panel comprises the flexible substrate and the sensing structure, the touch panel is not easy to break or rupture.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a touch panel and an electronic device using the same, in particular to a capacitive touch panel with a flexible substrate and an electronic device using the same. Background technique [0002] Due to the advantages of easy operation, humanization and space saving, the touch panel has been widely used in various electronic devices in recent years, replacing the mouse and the keyboard as input tools. [0003] According to the sensing principle, touch panels can be roughly divided into resistive and capacitive touch panels. Among them, the capacitive touch panel uses the capacitance change generated by the electrostatic combination between the electrode and the human body to detect the coordinates of the touch position. The substrate used in the capacitive touch panel is usually a glass substrate. [0004] The wiring of a traditional capacitive touch panel is composed of an X-axis metal sensing line, a Y-axis metal sensing line ...

Problems solved by technology

In addition, due to the above-mentioned problems, the assembly process of traditional touch panels requires a high degree of alignment, resulting in poor production efficiency or process yield, which greatly increases process time, cost and the number of process procedures

[0006] In addition, with the trend of miniaturization and higher resolution requirements, the display area originally covered by sensing lines and bridge lines has gradually become the main factor hindering the increase of display rate.
