Touch sensitive display device comprising a flexible circuit routing having a set of drive lines and a set of sense lines wherein drive line traces and sense line traces are non-overlapping
First Claim
1. A touch sensitive display device comprising:
- a touch sensor panel comprising;
a set of drive lines, anda set of sense lines; and
a flex circuit coupled to the set of drive lines and the set of sense lines, the flex circuit comprising;
an output portion;
an inner portion including a set of drive line traces coupling one or more drive lines of the set of drive lines to the output portion; and
an outer portion at least partially surrounding the inner portion, the outer portion including a set of sense line traces coupling one or more sense lines of the set of sense lines to the output portion,wherein the drive line traces and the sense line traces are non-overlapping with each other on the flex circuit.

Abstract
Flexible circuits for routing signals of a device, such as a touch sensor panel of a touch sensitive device, are provided. The flexible circuit can include a first set of traces for routing a first set of lines and a second set of traces for routing a second set of lines. The first set of traces can couple together the ends of at least a portion of the first set of lines. Additionally, the first set of traces can be non-intersecting or non-overlapping with the second set of traces. The flexible circuit can have a T-shape configuration and can be incorporated within a touch sensitive device, display device, printed circuit board, or the like. The flexible circuit can be placed over another flexible circuit, and can extend onto the device.
