METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR LIMITING A SENSING REGION OF A CAPACITIVE SENSING ELECTRODE

摘要

An apparatus includes a dielectric layer and a capacitive sensing electrode proximate a first surface of the dielectric layer. A conductive layer is proximate the first surface of the dielectric layer. The conductive layer at least partially surrounds the capacitive sensing electrode and is coupled to a predetermined electrical potential. The conductive layer limits a sensing region of the capacitive sensing electrode.
