Abstract:
A method includes driving, by a first driver circuit, a current through an electrode and detecting, by a sensing system, a touch based on a change in capacitance at the electrode. The first driver circuit includes a first operational transconductance amplifier and a first current mirror. A second current mirror is coupled to the sensing system. A first switch is coupled to the first current mirror. A second switch is coupled to the first current mirror and the first operational transconductance amplifier. A third switch is coupled to the first operational transconductance amplifier and the second current mirror. A fourth switch is coupled to the second current mirror. A fifth switch is coupled to the first operational transconductance amplifier. A sixth switch is coupled to the first operational transconductance amplifier. A seventh switch is coupled to the first operational transconductance amplifier, the first current mirror, and the second current mirror.

Claim (Index 41):
The method of  claim 38 , further comprising:\n closing the first switch, the third switch, and the seventh switch when a rate of change of an input voltage to the first driver circuit is negative; and opening the second switch, the fourth switch, the fifth switch, and the sixth switch when the rate of change of the input voltage to the first driver circuit is negative.
