Abstract
Disclosed herein is a touch screen controller including input circuitry operating a touch screen, and processing circuitry cooperating with the input circuitry to acquire mutual touch data and self touch data from the touch screen, sum values of the mutual touch data to produce mutual sums, normalize the mutual sums and the self touch data, and calculate differences between the normalized self touch data and the normalized mutual sums. The touch screen controller enters into a floating mode if a largest difference that is positive is greater than a positive difference threshold and if a smallest difference value that is negative is less than a negative difference threshold, but enters a non-floating mode if the largest difference that is positive is less than the positive difference threshold or if the smallest difference value that is negative is less than the negative difference threshold.
