Touch-sensing device using self-sensing signals to implement proximity detection function and related proximity detection method thereof

Abstract

A touch-sensing device with a proximity detection function includes a capacitive touch panel and a control circuit. The capacitive touch panel is arranged for generating a plurality of self-sensing signals via a plurality of traces, respectively. The control circuit is coupled to the capacitive touch panel, and arranged for receiving the plurality of self-sensing signals from the capacitive touch panel, and determining whether there is an object approaching the capacitive touch panel according to the plurality of self-sensing signals.
