Title: Multi-stage capacitive sensor
Inventor: ALAN MOREY
IPC: H03K17/975
Filed: 2017-11-21
Abstract: A multi-stage capacitive sensor 10, and method of construction, includes a user contact surface 12 and comprises a first capacitive touch sensor 14 at or adjacent to the user contact surface and a second capacitive sensor 24 spaced apart from the first sensor in a direction away from the user contact surface. Each of the capacitive sensors may be mounted on a separate substrate 18 and 26. A conductive member 22 is positioned between the first and second sensors and spaced apart from the second capacitive sensor. When a user applies force at the contact surface, a detectable change in capacitance is created at the second sensor due to the relative distance between the conductive member and second capacitive sensor being altered. The conductive member and/or the second capacitive sensor circuit may be deflectable when force is applied by the user, where deflection of the second sensor may be achieved by a rear deflection member (Fig.4, 558). The multi-stage capacitive sensor, which may comprise a plurality of first and/or second capacitive sensors (Fig. 7, 614, 624), may be included in a control panel interface for an electronic device where the user contact surface may be a dashboard for a vehicle. A method of using the multi-stage sensor is also disclosed. The multi-stage capacitive detection alleviates false user activations that may occur with touch sensing alone.
