    Abstract: Power consumption of touch sensing operations for touch sensitive devices can be reduced by implementing a coarse scan (e.g., banked common mode scan) to coarsely detect the presence or absence of an object touching or proximate to a touch sensor panel and the results of the coarse scan can be used to dynamically adjust the operation of the touch sensitive device to perform or not perform a fine scan (e.g., targeted active mode scan). In some examples, the results of the coarse scan can be used to program a touch controller for the next touch sensing frame to idle when no touch event is detected or to perform a fine scan when one or more touch events are detected. In some examples, the results of the coarse scan can be used to abort a scheduled fine scan during the current touch sensing frame when no touch event is detected.

    Abstract: A touch controller for flexible scanning operation is disclosed. The touch controller can include circuitry configured to perform coarse detection scans, select a fine scan type based on results from the coarse detection scans, and perform a fine scan corresponding to the selected fine scan type. A fine mutual capacitance scan can be performed when conditions corresponding to a poorly grounded or ungrounded object or user are detected based on the coarse detection scans. A fine fully-bootstrapped self-capacitance scan can be performed when conditions corresponding to a well-grounded object or user are detected based on the coarse detection scans. A touch processor can be configured to sense touch events from the fine scan.
