A Hybrid Touch Sensing AFE With Common-CVQ (Currents, Voltages, and Charges) Subtraction to Improve Display Noise Immunity for Large Sensing Load 150 150

Abstract:

On-cell touch flexible organic light-emitting diode (OLED) displays face significant display noise (D-noise) challenges due to large parasitic capacitance ( $C_{P}$ ). To address the limitations of conventional methods, this article proposes improved common-current subtraction (CCS), incorporating common-voltage subtraction (CVS) and common-charge subtraction (CQS) techniques. CVS enhances signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) by …
