Abstract:
An input/output interface for an electronic device receives touch and/or force input and, additionally provides haptic output to a user. In particular the input/output interface is operated in conjunction with an input surface and includes at least one input sensor and at least one haptic output element. In typical embodiments, the input sensor is ground-shifted to prevent damage to the input sensor when the haptic output element is driven.

Claim (Index 1):
An apparatus comprising:\n a protective outer layer configured to receive a user input; a display positioned below the protective outer layer; a haptic output element positioned between the display and the protective outer layer, the haptic output element capacitively coupled to the display; and a controller configured to ground-shift the display to drive the haptic output element.
