Abstract
A system and method for transmitting signals using an input device is provided. The input device comprises a display and a touch sensor. The touch sensor has a plurality of sensor electrodes and a sensor circuit. The plurality of sensor electrodes are configured to transmit a periodic signal corresponding to a first waveform and a second waveform. The sensor circuit has a first charge pump configured to generate the first waveform to drive a first set of sensor electrodes of the plurality of sensor electrodes, and a second charge pump to configured generate the second waveform to drive a second set of sensor electrodes, different from the first set of sensor electrodes.
