Abstract
An electrostatic and piezoelectric touch panel includes a first switching circuit, a second switching circuit, at least one first sensing device, and at least one second sensing device. The first sensing device includes a first transistor and a piezoelectric-transistor. The first transistor and the piezoelectric-transistor are series-connected between a power source and ground. The first switching circuit connects to a connection point between the first transistor and the piezoelectric-transistor. The second sensing device includes a second transistor and two parallel-connected electrostatic to transistors. The second transistor and the two parallel-connected electrostatic transistors are series-connected between a negative power source and ground. The first switching circuit connects to a connection point between the second transistor and the two parallel-connected electrostatic transistors. Gates of the first and second transistors connect to the second switching circuit. The two parallel-connected electrostatic transistors include different types of doped semiconductor materials.
