Claim 10:
11. A touch sensitive processing apparatus, comprising:
an interconnection network for connecting multiple touch electrodes of a touch panel;
a driving circuit for connecting to the interconnection network;
a sensing circuit for connecting to the interconnection network; and
a processor configured for executing instructions stored in a non-volatile memory to realize:
having the interconnection network, the driving circuit and the sensing circuit performing capacitance sensing by the touch electrodes to gather an approximating or touching position of an external conductive object with regard to the touch panel;
determining whether the approximating or touching position is within a non-report area, wherein a shape of the non-report area is a circle or an ellipse;
when the approximating or touching position is determined outside the non-report area, reporting the approximating or touching position to a host; and
when the approximating or touching position is determined inside the non-report area, ignoring the approximating or touching position,
wherein the non-report area is completely surrounded by the report area.
