Abstract: Asymmetric scanning logic implements asymmetric panel scanning by scanning some rows on a touch panel more frequently than other rows. Note that although an entire row at a time may be driven, if only particular pixels in the row are of interest (e.g., included in any region of interest for focused asymmetric scanning), then circuitry may power down the receivers for the columns in which the pixels exist to save power. The asymmetric scanning logic facilitates focused attention to specific areas of interest on the touch panel, to compensate, for example, for high noise or low signal strength in those areas of interest.

Abstract: Control circuitry for a touch panel includes a touch panel interface, a memory comprising touch positioning logic, and a controller in communication with the memory and the touch panel interface. The controller is operable, when the touch positioning logic is executed, to perform selected processing of the touch panel, including scanning a touch panel and determining a touch panel blob resulting from a touch, obtaining blob characteristics of the touch panel blob, and determining a position of the blob relative to the touch panel based on the blob characteristics. The blob characteristics can be adjusted to more accurately position the blob in circumstances where the blob is located near the edge of the touch panel, is in close proximity to another blob, or when the touch panel has variation in the received signal noise.
