Abstract

A semiconductor device for an input device comprises sensor circuitry, a plurality of contacts and a sensor bus. A first contact of the plurality of contacts is configured to be coupled to a first sensor electrode of the plurality of sensor electrodes, a second contact of the plurality of contacts is configured to be coupled to a second sensor electrode of the plurality of sensor electrodes, and a third contact of the plurality of contacts is configured to be coupled to a third sensor electrode of the plurality of sensor electrodes. The sensor bus comprises a plurality of traces. A first trace of the plurality of traces is configured to couple the first contact and the second contact to a first transmitter of the sensor circuitry and a second trace of the plurality of traces is coupled to the third contact to a first receiver of the sensor circuitry.
