ORTHOGONAL MULTI-ROW TOUCH PANEL STIMULATION
First Claim
1. A method for scanning a touch panel, the method comprising:
- energizing a first and a second row in the touch panel simultaneously, a first time;
obtaining a first signal measurement along a column intersecting the first and second rows;
energizing the first and the second row in the touch panel simultaneously, a second time;
obtaining a second signal measurement along the column; and
determining a first pixel value and a second pixel value along the column from the first signal measurement and the second signal measurement.

Abstract
Control circuitry for a touch panel includes a touch panel interface, a memory comprising scanning logic, and a controller in communication with the memory and the touch panel interface. The controller is operable, when the scanning logic is executed, to energize a first and a second row in the touch panel simultaneously, a first time; obtain a first signal measurement along a column intersecting the first and second rows; energize the first and the second row in the touch panel simultaneously, a second time; obtain a second signal measurement along the column; and determine a first pixel value and a second pixel value along the column from the first signal measurement and the second signal measurement.
