Abstract
A touch-sensitive display device includes a capacitance-based touch sensor including a plurality of electrodes, a display including a plurality of pixels, an image source configured to output image frames at a video frame rate, and a controller. The controller is configured to perform capacitance measurements on the capacitance-based touch sensor in capacitance-measurement intervals of a touch-sensing frame, and perform display-write operations on the display to write each image frame to the display in display-write intervals of the touch-sensing frame that do not temporally overlap with the capacitance-measurement intervals of the touch-sensing frame. The controller is configured repeat the touch-sensing frame at a fixed touch-sensing frame rate that is different than the video frame rate.
