Abstract

A touch-sensitive display device comprises: a first touch-sensitive input device comprising touch-sensitive display including a first plurality of touch-sensing electrodes, and a second touch-sensitive input device including a second plurality of touch-sensing electrodes. A peripheral device uplink controller is configured to receive a command to transmit outgoing computer data from the touch-sensitive display device to a separate peripheral device via an electrostatic uplink. The outgoing computer data is transmitted via the first plurality of touch-sensing electrodes of the touch-sensitive display by driving the first plurality of touch-sensing electrodes with an encoded electrostatic drive signal. The outgoing computer data is transmitted via the second plurality of touch-sensing electrodes of the second touch-sensitive input device by driving the second plurality of touch-sensing electrodes with the encoded electrostatic drive signal.
