Abstract

A touch sensing apparatus includes a signal source for generating an alternating current signal, a conductor connected to the signal source, a sensor for receiving a noise generated by a contact of an object. The sensor together with the conductor form a simulated capacitor that results in alternating current signal flowing through the sensor when the sensor is contacted by the object. A detector has a first input end and a second input end. The detector results in voltage differences between the first and second input ends thereof when receiving the alternating current signal output from the sensor, and thus output a signal. A rectifying circuit is used for rectifying the alternating current signal generated by the signal source and simultaneously generating a noise. One end of the rectifier circuit is connected to the signal source and other end of the rectifier circuit is connected to the negative power input end of the detector.
