Touch panel threshold pressure setup method and apparatus

A touch panel operation method, comprising:

• touching a plurality of points when a calibration is processing, performing a plurality of times sampling when touching the points to obtain a plurality of the pressure values;
• obtaining an average pressure value according to the pressure values;
• setting a predetermined multiple of the average pressure value as a threshold pressure value;
• and
• accepting a touch operation if a contact pressure is greater than a threshold pressure value when touching the touch panel.

A touch panel pressure setup method for a portable electronic instrument, suitable for a touch panel of the portable electronic instrument, comprising:

• touching the touch panel, performing a plurality of times sampling when touching the touch panel to obtain a plurality of pressure values;
• obtaining an average pressure value according to the pressure values;
• and
• setting a certain multiple of the average pressure value as a threshold pressure value.

A touch panel pressure setup apparatus for a portable electronic instrument, suitable for the portable electronic instrument, comprising:

• a touch surface, receiving a touch from outside;
• a sense element, sensing the touch happened on the touch surface, converting the touch into a corresponding pressure value according to an electronic signal that is generated when the touch surface is touched;
• and
• a calculation and setup element, receiving a plurality of the pressure values that are generated by a plurality of the touches, averaging the pressure values to obtain an average pressure value, further multiplying a multiplier by the average pressure value, and setting a value obtained from the multiplication as a threshold pressure value;
• wherein, when a pressure value of the subsequent touch onto the touch surface is greater than the threshold pressure value, the portable electronic instrument generates a corresponding reaction.
