Coordinate indicating apparatus and method for driving thereof
First Claim
1. A coordinate indicating apparatus, comprising:
- a channel electrode which includes a first plurality of electrodes arranged in a first direction and a second plurality of electrodes arranged in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction, and which has capacitance between the first plurality of electrodes and the second plurality of electrodes, the capacitance being changed by an approach of a contact object;
a driver configured to generate a driving signals from a plurality of input signals using a modified Hadamard matrix, and apply the driving signals to the first plurality of electrodes simultaneously;
a receiver configured to receive response signals from the second plurality of electrodes; and
a controller configured to determine a location of the contact object based on the driving signals transmitted to the first plurality of electrodes and the response signals received from the second plurality of electrodes,wherein the modified Hadamard matrix comprises a Hadamard matrix modified to change all values of a column of which the all values are the same, to zero, andwherein each column of the modified Hadamard matrix is corresponding to each time section on which the driving signal are applied to the first plurality of electrodes.
