Abstract:
A touch controller may include a measurement circuit, configured to receive a signal from an active channel in a proximity sensor, and to sample and hold the signal to measure the signal. The touch controller may include a driven shield buffer. The touch controller may include a voltage reference circuit configured to generate a divided voltage reference, provide the divided voltage reference to the measurement circuit, and drive the divided voltage reference through a switched circuit to the driven shield buffer to hold channels in the proximity sensor during measurement of the active channel.

Claim (Index 18):
The method of  claim 17 , further comprising, in the second phase of operation of the switched circuit, during each successive cycle, driving an equivalent amount of total charge from the first capacitor and the second capacitor to the held channels.
