Abstract
A touch-sensing display device comprises a plurality of row electrodes and column electrodes, a capacitance detector, detecting first capacitance-variation values of the row electrodes and second capacitance-variation values of the column electrodes, and detecting third capacitance-variation values of each intersection of the row electrodes and the column electrodes. The processor counts the first number of the first and second capacitance-variation values, exceeding a first threshold, counts the second number of the first and second capacitance-variation values up to a maximum capacitor-variation value, and counts the third number of the third capacitance values, exceeding a second threshold. The processor makes the touch-sensing display device enter a bending mode when the first and second numbers are over a first predetermined number and a second predetermined number respectively, and the third number is below the first number. The processor further raises the second threshold when entering the bending mode.
