发明名称 CAPACITANCE DETECTING CIRCUIT AND METHOD, AND FINGERPRINT SENSOR USING THE SAME
摘要 In a capacitance detecting circuit, changes in capacitances at intersections between a plurality of column lines and a row line are detected as voltages. The capacitance detecting circuit includes a code generator for generating code having orthogonality in chronological order. A column-line driver drives the plurality of column lines based on the code by dividing the column lines into a first column line group and a second column line group. A capacitance detector, which is connected to the row line, converts the total of currents generated in capacitances at the intersections with the driven column lines into a voltage signal and outputs the converted voltage signal. A decoding computation unit determines the voltages corresponding to the capacitances at the intersections for each of the column line groups by performing product sum computation between the measured voltages and the code. In a period for detecting the capacitances, the column-line driver drives the first column line group and the second column line group by complementary voltages according to the code or information indicating the inversion of the code.
