Abstract
A capacitive track pad using force sensing to determine the approximate position of touch on the track pad and to use this position as a check against a capacitive touch determined position in order to disqualify potential noise generated signals. The position resolved from the inductive force sensing measurements can also be used to assist in generating a uniform haptic experience for the user. The force sensing measurements are also used to determine if the threshold for a 'click' has been met.
