Abstract
An integrated circuit includes a sigma-delta modulator coupled to a receive electrode of a capacitive touch screen sensor and including a first single-ended integrator and a second single-ended integrator selectively coupled to an output of the first single-ended integrator. A latch is coupled to an output of the second single-ended integrator and driven by a frequency modulation signal. A balancing circuit is selectively coupled to a first input of the first single-ended integrator and to a second input of the second single-ended integrator. Logic is coupled to the balancing circuit and causes, based on the frequency modulation signal and an output value of the latch, the balancing circuit to one of: apply a positive balancing current to the first input and a negative balancing current to the second input; or apply a positive balancing current to the second input and a negative balancing current to the first input.
