Abstract
This disclosure generally provides an input device, electronic systems and processing system for touch sensing. In one example, an input device for touch sensing includes receiver electrodes and transmitter electrodes arranged in transmitter and receiver electrode columns. Each transmitter electrode within each transmitter electrode column is paired with two adjacent receiver electrodes of a first column of the receiver electrode columns. A first plurality of traces couple a first group of receiver electrodes in the first receiver electrode column, the first plurality of traces not passing between the transmitter and receiver electrodes of the first transmitter and receiver electrode columns. A second plurality of traces coupled a second group of receiver electrodes in the first receiver electrode column, the second plurality of traces passing between one of the transmitter electrodes of the first transmitter electrode column and one of the receiver electrodes of the second group of receiver electrodes.
