Abstract:
1. An assembly, comprising: a first plurality of electrode pairs distributed across an active area of a touchscreen, each electrode pair of the first plurality of electrode pairs being formed in a pattern, the patterns of the first plurality of electrode pairs decreasing in frequency of snaking from electrode pair to electrode pair in a first direction; and a second plurality of electrode pairs distributed across the active area of the touchscreen, each electrode pair of the second plurality of electrode pairs being formed in a pattern, the patterns of the second plurality of electrode pairs increasing in frequency of snaking from electrode pair to electrode pair in the first direction; wherein a position of a touch can be determined in the first direction based at least in part on proportionate density of the first plurality of electrode pairs and the second plurality of electrode pairs in an area of the touch; wherein a first electrode pair comprises: wherein at least one receive electrode in the first plurality of electrode pairs is directly coupled to at least one receive electrode in the second plurality of electrode pairs.
