Abstract
The present invention relates to a touch panel. The touch panel includes a substrate, a plurality of first traces, a plurality of second traces, and a plurality of sensing pads. The first traces are disposed on the substrate and are parallel to each other along a first direction. The second traces are disposed on the substrate and are parallel to each other along a second direction. The first traces and the second traces interlace with each other to form a plurality of sensing pad areas. Each sensing pad is disposed in each sensing pad area, and is electrically connected to each first trace and each second trace. The present invention further provides a method of operating the same. In the present invention, the thickness of the touch panel is decreased, and the material for the electrodes is economized. Consequently, the costs of the touch panel can be reduced.
