1. A touch sensing apparatus, comprising:

  • one or more touch sensing units, each touch sensing unit comprising;

    a differential signal source for generating two signals which have a same frequency but reverse phases; and

    two sensors for receiving a signal of a user'"'"'s touch, wherein one sensor is connected to an anode of the differential signal source and the other sensor is connected to a cathode of the differential signal source;

    wherein, each differential signal source has an exclusive frequency;

    a detector for converting the received signal into a digital signal, wherein the sensors of all the touch sensing units are connected to an input terminal of the detector; and

    a signal processing unit for determining which sensor is touched according to a frequency and phase of the digital signal output from the detector, wherein the signal processing unit is connected to an output terminal of the detector.
