Abstract
A touch-sensor device including a substrate, a plurality of sensor elements, an active electronic component, and a plurality of traces is described. The plurality of sensor elements are non-linearly disposed upon the substrate and can define a perimeter. The active electronic component can be disposed upon the substrate and situated at least partially within the perimeter. The plurality of traces can be disposed upon the substrate to couple with the plurality of sensor elements and the active electronic component. The substrate may have an area approximately equal to an area of the perimeter.
