Abstract
The present invention provides a capacitive touch sensing device and a scanning method thereof. The present invention divides a scanning procedure of an electrode matrix into two stages. First, it scans broadly for determining whether the potential signal of at least one driving line of the electrode matrix is changed or not. After that, the present invention is only directed to the driving line which the potential signal is changed to scan in detail, to determine whether the potential signal of each coupling node on the driving line is changed or not. Therefore, the present invention can achieve the purpose of improving sensing efficiency of the capacitive touch sensing device.
