Abstract
A touch screen. In some examples, the touch screen can comprise a first element coupled to a first sense connection, and a second element coupled to a second sense connection. In some examples, the first and second sense connections can be configured such that a load presented by the first sense connection and the first element is substantially equal to a load presented by the second sense connection and the second element. In some examples, the first and second sense connections can comprise detour routing configured such that a resistance of the first sense connection is substantially equal to a resistance of the second sense connection. In some examples, the first and second sense connections can be coupled to dummy routing configured such that a first capacitance presented by the first sense connection is substantially equal to a second capacitance presented by the second sense connection.
