Abstract:
1. A resistive touch panel comprising: an indium tin oxide (ITO) layer comprising a positive electrode and a negative electrode, wherein the ITO layer is cut into a continuous zigzag-shaped ITO strip by a number of first etched lines and a number of second etched lines, the first and second etched lines being equidistantly spaced and arranged in an alternate fashion, the ITO strip is connected between a first end of the positive electrode and a first end of the negative electrode, a power supply is connected between a second end of the positive electrode and a second end of the negative electrode; a glass layer comprising an ITO covering portion and a peripheral output bus surrounding the ITO covering portion, wherein the ITO covering portion faces the ITO layer, the output bus is connected to the ITO covering portion; and an insulation layer sandwiched between the ITO layer and the glass layer; wherein the resistance touch panel defines a Cartesian coordinate system for locating a touch point thereon, each touch point spatially corresponding to a given position on the ITO strip, the power supply configured to generate a given voltage at given position of the ITO strip, the output bus configured to transmit a signal associated with the voltage to an outside processor.
