Abstract
A touch panel stackup comprises a substrate having a substantially transparent first region and a substantially opaque second region, a sensing electrode detecting a tactile signal, a conductive circuit electrically coupled with the sensing electrode, and a masking element configured on the second region of the substrate, wherein the sensing electrode, the conductive circuit, and the masking element are integrally formed on the substrate.
Claims18
A touch panel stackup, comprising:
- a singular integrated substrate having a viewable area and a neighboring area next to the viewable area;
- a masking element positioned at the neighboring area of the singular integrated substrate;
- a touch-sensing electrode having a first section positioned at the viewable area of the singular integrated substrate;
- a conductive circuit having a first section positioned at the neighboring area of the singular integrated substrate;
- and
- a dielectric element isolating the touch-sensing electrode and the conductive circuit from the masking element,
- wherein the touch-sensing electrode and the masking element are integrally formed, and wherein the integrally formed touch-sensing electrode and masking element are positioned on one surface of the singular integrated substrate.
