Capacitive touch panel having first and second electrode strings disposed in differing directions in which at least one of the electrode strings comprises disconnected portions distributed in the same direction
First Claim
1. A capacitive touch panel comprising:
- a first electrode layer having a first A electrode string and a first B electrode string distributed along a first direction, each of the first A electrode string and of the first B electrode string having a plurality of first direction electrodes respectively, wherein one first direction electrode of the first A electrode string and one first direction electrode of the first B electrode string distributed in a straight line along the first direction are disconnected in the first electrode layer, the first A electrode string and the first B electrode string are simultaneously detected for presence of signal variation; and
a second electrode layer overlapping the first electrode layer and having a plurality of second direction electrodes connected in series and distributed along a second direction, wherein the second direction crosses the first direction.

Abstract
A capacitive touch panel and a display device using the capacitive touch panel are provided. The capacitive touch panel includes a first electrode layer, a second electrode layer, and a dielectric layer disposed between two layers. The first electrode layer has a plurality of first A electrode strings and first B electrode strings extended along a first direction. The first A electrode string and the first B electrode string respectively has a plurality of first direction electrodes. The second electrode layer has a plurality of second direction electrodes connected in series along a second direction. The first A and B electrode strings are disconnected in the first electrode layer while they are simultaneously detected for presence of signal variation.
