1. A reflected-capacitive touch panel of a wearable electronic device, comprising:
- a center touch sensing portion composed of a plurality of mutual-capacitance sensors;
a border touch sensing portion surrounding the center touch sensing portion, the border touch sensing portion being composed of a plurality of hybrid self-capacitance and mutual-capacitance sensors; and
a predetermined bonding area into which channels of the center touch sensing portion and the border touch sensing portion are routed;
wherein the center touch sensing portion comprises;
a plurality of center transmitting channel arranged in a first direction; and
a plurality of center receiving channels arranged in a second direction that is distinct from the first direction;
wherein driving signals are sent via the center transmitting channels and sensing signals are then received via the center receiving channels to detect mutual-capacitance of the center touch sensing portion;
wherein the border touch sensing portion comprises;
at least one border transmitting channel;
wherein the center receiving channels are shared between the center touch sensing portion and the border touch sensing portion, driving signals are sent via the border transmitting channel and sensing signals are received via the center receiving channels to detect mutual-capacitance of the border touch sensing portion, and sensing signals are received via the center receiving channels to detect self-capacitance and mutual-capacitance of the border touch sensing portion.
