First Claim
1. A touch apparatus, comprising:
- a touch panel, comprising;
a first transparent substrate;
a plurality of first conductive patterns disposed on the first transparent substrate, being parallel to a first direction, and each of the first conductive patterns having a first end and a second end opposite to the first end along the first direction;
a second transparent substrate disposed opposite to the first transparent substrate;
a plurality of second conductive patterns disposed on the second transparent substrate, the first conductive patterns and the second conductive patterns being located between the first transparent substrate and the second transparent substrate, and each of the second conductive patterns being parallel to a second direction, wherein the first direction is intersected to the second direction, and each of the second conductive patterns has a third end and a fourth end opposite to the third end along the second direction;
a plurality of spacers disposed between the first transparent substrate and the second transparent substrate; and
a touch sensing circuit, comprising;
a first demultiplexer electrically coupled to each of the first ends for transmitting a first signal;
a second demultiplexer electrically coupled to each of the third ends for transmitting a second signal;

a second multiplexer electrically coupled to each of the first ends for receiving a second sensing signal output from each of the first ends;
a third multiplexer electrically coupled to the first multiplexer and the second multiplexer for receiving the first sensing signal and the second sensing signal;
a fourth multiplexer electrically coupling the second ends and the fourth ends to a ground signal;
an analog/digital converter (ADC) electrically coupled to the third multiplexer for outputting a first coordinate signal and a second coordinate signal;
a fifth multiplexer electrically coupled to the ADC; and
a sixth multiplexer electrically coupled to the ADC, wherein the fifth multiplexer and the sixth multiplexer are used for modulating a signal receiving range of the ADC.

Abstract
A touch apparatus including a touch panel and a touch sensing circuit is provided. The touch panel includes a first transparent substrate, a plurality of first conductive patterns, a second transparent substrate, a plurality of second conductive patterns and a plurality of spacers. The touch sensing circuit includes a first demultiplexer, a second demultiplexer, a first multiplexer, a second multiplexer, a third multiplexer, a fourth multiplexer, a fifth multiplexer, a sixth multiplexer and an analog/digital converter (ADC). The fifth multiplexer and the sixth multiplexer are used for modulating a signal receiving range of the ADC and thus the touch sensing circuit is easily judge a correctness of a sensing signal.
