Abstract
A multi-touch positioning method for a touch control device is disclosed. The touch control device includes a plurality of sensing channels, and each of the plurality of sensing channels is interlaced by a first sensing electrode and a second sensing electrode. The multi-touch positioning method includes retrieving a first touch sensing value and a second touch sensing value respectively corresponding to the first sensing electrode and the second sensing electrode, adding the first touch sensing value and the second touch sensing value to generate a sensing sum value, determining a touch sensing channel having a local maximum value according to the plurality of sensing sum values of the plurality of sensing channels, so as to define a touch point on the touch sensing channel, and calculating a coordinate of the touch point according to the touch sensing channel and its neighboring sensing channels.
