Analog Gaussian-Shaped Filter Design and Current Mode Compensation for Dot-Matrix TSP Readout Systems
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: In-cell touch and display integrated panels, along with their integrated readout systems, are widely adopted in mobile devices for their cost-effectiveness and compact design. This paper proposes an analog Gaussian-shaped filter and a current mode compensation technique for dot-matrix Touch Screen Panel (TSP) readout systems. Specifically, this article presents a noise management strategy for both intrinsic and external noise, offering simulation guidelines for determining intrinsic circuit noise levels in relation to scan time and enhancing external noise immunity through the Gaussian-shaped filter response. The system achieved an intrinsic SNR of 66 dB with a 200 kHz TSP driving frequency and a 160 μs scan time, while the 4-bit quantized Gaussian coefficients filter provided 33 dB noise suppression for out-of-band noise. The compensation error in the dot-matrix capacitance compensation was measured at 1.24 pF, which corresponds to a 0.078% deviation. The simulated power consumption of the proposed readout system is 24 mW, with a layout area of 1.017 mm2 for the 10-channel readout front-end.
