Claims18
An apparatus, comprising:
- a stack of layers;
- a capacitive sensor layer in the stack of layers;
- a set of electrodes on the capacitive layer;
- an antenna on the capacitive layer;
- and a shield feature between at least a portion of the set of electrodes and the antenna;
- wherein the stack of layers includes a first capacitive sensor layer and a second capacitive sensor layer, and the antenna is formed on at least one of the capacitive sensor layers;
- and wherein the shield feature is formed on both the first capacitive sensor layer and the second capacitive sensor layer;
- wherein the shield feature surrounds a portion of the set of electrodes.
