TOUCH SENSOR CHIP, TOUCH SENSING APPARATUS INCLUDING THE SAME, AND METHOD OF CONTROLLING NOISE OF TOUCH PANEL
First Claim
1. A touch sensing apparatus comprising:
- an electronic device which is driven by a clock signal;
a touch panel which is placed adjacent to the electronic device and receives a touch signal; and
a touch sensor chip which transmits a driving signal to the touch panel and hops a frequency of the driving signal by a hopping interval if a noise level at the frequency of the driving signal is equal to or higher than a noise threshold,wherein the hopping interval is set based on an exciting frequency of the touch sensor chip.
