TOUCH PANEL AND ELECTRONIC DEVICE DISPLAY WINDOW PROTECTION PANEL USING THE SAME

摘要

There is provided a touch panel capable of performing connection with an external terminal without requiring engagement accuracy and obtaining stable connection resistance. An electronic device display window protection panel using the touch panel is also provided. The analog type touch panel includes a touch side substrate (2) and a non-touch side substrate (3) having resistance films (2a, 3a) on the opposing inner surfaces. Through holes (4a, 4b, 4c, 4d) are formed at the periphery of the non-touch side substrate (3). A connection unit (5) is formed for electrically connecting the external terminal to the resistance films (2a, 3a) via the through holes. Conductive paste is put into the through holes and a rivet (14) is inserted into each of the through holes from the bottom. The head portions of the rivets (14) form planar electrodes (15a, 15b) at the bottom of the non-touch side substrate (3) for connection to the external terminal.
