Abstract
An improved electrode arrangement for touch screen panels wherein the conductive segments forming the edge arrays and the elongated buses which deliver input signals to the arrays are in stacked superimposed relationship, one to the other. At the respective cross-over points between the buses and the conductive segments, the respective axes are angularly disposed, one to the other, so as to eliminate the creation of an impedance which may adversely affect the accuracy of the output of the touch screen. Each cross-over point is located along a solid portion of the conductive segments comprising the array.
