Abstract
Embodiments described herein include an input device with a plurality of sensor electrodes, where each sensor electrode includes at least one display electrode of a plurality of display electrodes, and where each display electrode is configured to be driven for display updating and capacitive sensing. The input device also includes a processing system configured to acquire sensor data using one or more sensor electrodes during one or more display blanking periods, where a first half sensing period occurs during a first display blanking period and a second half sensing period occurs during a second display blanking period. The processing system acquires sensor data using a first resulting signal from the first half sensing period and a second resulting signal from the second half sensing period.
