Abstract:
A touch sensing circuit for use in a touch sensitive device includes: an integrator, a first switching unit and a control signal generator. The integrator, coupled to at least one sensing electrode of a touch panel in the touch sensitive device, and arranged to collect charges on the at least one sensing electrode and accordingly generate an output sensed signal. The first switching unit is arranged to selectively couple a first end of the at least one sensing electrode to a reference voltage level according to a first mask signal. The control signal generator is arranged to generate the first mask signal according to a synchronization signal of a display panel in the touch sensitive device, wherein the first switching unit couples the first end of the at least one sensing electrode to the reference voltage level when the synchronization signal is asserted.
