Patent ID: 8179380

Claim:
A capacitive touch slider array, comprising: a first conductive trace associated with a first sensing node, the first conductive trace including a first conductive line and a plurality of first conductive fingers extending from the first conductive line, the plurality of first conductive fingers having lengths that increase from a first end of the capacitive touch slider array to a second end of the capacitive touch slider array; a second conductive trace associated with a second sensing node, the second conductive trace including a second conductive line and a plurality of second conductive fingers extending from the second conductive line, the plurality of second conductive fingers having lengths that increase from the second end of the capacitive touch slider array to the first end of the capacitive touch slider array; and a third conductive trace associated with a ground node, the third conductive trace interleaved between the first plurality of conductive fingers and the second plurality of conductive fingers.
