Abstract:
Embodiments are disclosed that relate to touch input detection in a touch sensor. One example provides a method comprising establishing a first reference sequence, starting with a first set of candidate reference sequences each differing from the first reference sequence, reducing the first set of candidate reference sequences by applying a rule set to the first set to derive a relatively smaller second set of candidate reference sequences, for each candidate reference sequence in the second set of candidate reference sequences, calculating a touch detection performance score of a combined reference sequence, and configuring at least a portion of a receive circuit to correlate signals to at least one of the touch detection conditions by using the first reference sequence in a combined correlation operation with at least a selected candidate reference sequence from the second set of candidate reference sequences.

Claim (Index 17):
A system comprising:\n a plurality of drivers each attached to a respective electrode and configured to drive that respective electrode with an excitation sequence; a plurality of receivers each attached to a respective electrode and configured to receive at that respective electrode a received signal resulting from at least one driven electrode, each receiver having two or more correlators each configured to correlate the received signal with a respective reference sequence, and a combiner configured to combine each result from each correlator to determine a combined correlation value, the combined correlation value being equivalently determined by correlating the received signal with a combination of the two or more reference sequences; and a controller configured to identify at least one touch detection condition based on the combined correlation value.
