EQUALIZING PARASITIC CAPACITANCE EFFECTS IN TOUCH SCREENS
First Claim
1. A touch screen comprising:
- a plurality of display pixels with stackups that each include a first element and a second element, wherein the plurality of display pixels includesa first display pixel including a third element connected to the first element, the third element contributing to a first parasitic capacitance between the first and second elements of the first display pixel, anda second display pixel lacking the third element, the second display pixel including a second parasitic capacitance between the first and second elements of the second display pixel.

Abstract
Reduction of the effects of differences in parasitic capacitances in touch screens is provided. A touch screen can include multiple display pixels with stackups that each include a first element and a second element. For example, the first element can be a common electrode, and the second element can be a data line. The display pixels can include a first display pixel including a third element connected to the first element, and the third element can contribute to a first parasitic capacitance between the first and second elements of the first display pixel, for example, by overlapping with the second element. The touch screen can also include a second display pixel lacking the third element. The second display pixel can include a second parasitic capacitance between the first and second elements of the second display pixel. The first and second parasitic capacitances can be substantially equal, for example.

14. A method of manufacturing a touch screen including a layout of a plurality of display pixels with stackups that each include a first element and a second element, the method comprising:
-
forming, at a first placement in the layout, a first display pixel including a first configuration that includes the first and second element, the first configuration being associated with a first parasitic capacitance between the first and second elements, and forming, at a second placement in the layout, a second display pixel including a second configuration that includes the first and second elements, the second configuration being different than the first configuration and associated with a second parasitic capacitance, such that total parasitic capacitances of a plurality of second elements are balanced. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17, 18, 19)
