請參考第1圖，第1圖繪示根據本揭示文件之一實施例的穿戴式裝置100示意圖。穿戴式裝置100包含指針110、觸控面板120及錶帶160，穿戴式裝置100可以是具有實體金屬指針的智慧型手錶，觸控面板120可以是電容式觸控面板。穿戴式裝置100根據觸控面板120的電容值變化判斷穿戴式裝置100是否被觸控。 Please refer to FIG. 1. FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of a wearable device 100 according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. The wearable device 100 includes a pointer 110, a touch panel 120, and a strap 160. The wearable device 100 may be a smart watch with physical metal pointers, and the touch panel 120 may be a capacitive touch panel. The wearable device 100 determines whether the wearable device 100 is touched according to the change in the capacitance value of the touch panel 120.

在穿戴式裝置100沒有被使用的情況下，觸控 面板120的電容值無變化，因此穿戴式裝置100判斷為無觸控情況。 When the wearable device 100 is not being used, touch The capacitance value of the panel 120 does not change, so the wearable device 100 determines that there is no touch condition.

由於電容在結構上是由兩個金屬板或是金屬表面的導體所構成，當使用者的手指接觸觸控面板120時，由於人體為導體，手指與觸控面板120之間會形成一個新的電容，此電容為手指與觸控面板120之間的電容值。此時的等效電容值為觸控面板120本身的電容值加上手指與觸控面板120之間的電容值，總和大於觸控面板120本身的電容值，因此穿戴式裝置100判斷為觸控狀態，而執行觸控操作。 Since the capacitor is structurally composed of two metal plates or conductors on the metal surface, when the user’s finger touches the touch panel 120, since the human body is a conductor, a new connection is formed between the finger and the touch panel 120. Capacitance. The capacitance is the capacitance value between the finger and the touch panel 120. At this time, the equivalent capacitance value is the capacitance value of the touch panel 120 itself plus the capacitance value between the finger and the touch panel 120. The sum is greater than the capacitance value of the touch panel 120. Therefore, the wearable device 100 determines that it is touch-sensitive. State while performing a touch operation.

在穿戴式裝置100具有指針110的情況下，由於指針110同樣為導體，因此指針110與觸控面板120之間也會形成新的電容，此電容為指針110與觸控面板120之間的電容值。同樣地，此時的等效電容值為觸控面板120本身的電容值加上指針110與觸控面板120之間的電容值，總和大於觸控面板120本身的電容值。在此情況下當使用者無接觸觸控面板120或無使用穿戴式裝置100時，穿戴式裝置100也會判斷為觸控狀態而執行觸控操作造成誤判的情況發生，因此需要校正穿戴式裝置100的電容值判斷方式以避免此情況發生。 In the case where the wearable device 100 has a pointer 110, since the pointer 110 is also a conductor, a new capacitance will also be formed between the pointer 110 and the touch panel 120, and this capacitance is the capacitance between the pointer 110 and the touch panel 120 value. Similarly, the equivalent capacitance value at this time is the capacitance value of the touch panel 120 itself plus the capacitance value between the pointer 110 and the touch panel 120, and the sum is greater than the capacitance value of the touch panel 120 itself. In this case, when the user does not touch the touch panel 120 or does not use the wearable device 100, the wearable device 100 will also determine that it is in a touch state and perform a touch operation causing a misjudgment. Therefore, the wearable device needs to be calibrated The capacitance value judgment method of 100 prevents this from happening.

請參考第2圖，第2圖繪示根據本揭示文件之一實施例的一種如第1圖所示之穿戴式裝置100的線段AA’剖面功能方塊圖。穿戴式裝置100包含指針110、觸控面板120、顯示元件130、處理電路140、玻璃層150及錶帶160。 Please refer to FIG. 2. FIG. 2 is a functional block diagram of a line segment AA' of the wearable device 100 shown in FIG. 1 according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. The wearable device 100 includes a pointer 110, a touch panel 120, a display element 130, a processing circuit 140, a glass layer 150 and a strap 160.

請參考第3A圖，第3A圖繪示根據本揭示文件 之一實施例的指針區段及觸控面板區塊示意圖。指針110包含指針區段110a及指針區段110b，觸控面板120包含觸控面板區塊120a、觸控面板區塊120b及觸控面板區塊120c。為了方便說明，以指針區段110a、指針區段110b、觸控面板區塊120a、觸控面板區塊120b及觸控面板區塊120c做為例子說明，但本揭示文件之指針及觸控面板不以此分段及分區方法為限，可以根據實際情況而有其他設計方式。 Please refer to Figure 3A, Figure 3A shows the document according to this disclosure A schematic diagram of the pointer section and the touch panel block of an embodiment. The pointer 110 includes a pointer section 110a and a pointer section 110b, and the touch panel 120 includes a touch panel section 120a, a touch panel section 120b, and a touch panel section 120c. For the convenience of description, the pointer section 110a, the pointer section 110b, the touch panel section 120a, the touch panel section 120b, and the touch panel section 120c are taken as examples. However, the pointer and the touch panel of the present disclosure It is not limited to this segmentation and partitioning method, and other design methods can be used according to the actual situation.

於此實施例中，觸控面板區塊的分區方法可以是以觸控面板區塊120a的面積為1倍，其他區塊的面積設計為0.8倍到1.2倍之間。例如，觸控面板區塊120b設計為1.2倍，觸控面板區塊120c設計為0.8倍。 In this embodiment, the partitioning method of the touch panel block may be that the area of the touch panel block 120a is 1 time, and the area of the other blocks is designed to be between 0.8 times and 1.2 times. For example, the touch panel block 120b is designed to be 1.2 times, and the touch panel block 120c is designed to be 0.8 times.

如前文描述造成誤判的情況，因此需要校正與指針110重疊的觸控面板120之判斷方式。處理電路140用以判斷所有指針區段的其中一者及所有觸控面板區塊的其中一者之間的等效電容值是否大於它們之間的參考電容值，當等效電容值大於參考電容值時，處理電路140用以執行穿戴式裝置100的觸控操作。以下以指針區段110a、指針區段110b、觸控面板區塊120a、觸控面板區塊120b及觸控面板區塊120c做為例子說明。 As described above, the misjudgment is caused. Therefore, the judgment method of the touch panel 120 overlapping with the pointer 110 needs to be corrected. The processing circuit 140 is used to determine whether the equivalent capacitance value between one of all pointer sections and one of all touch panel blocks is greater than the reference capacitance value between them, when the equivalent capacitance value is greater than the reference capacitance When the value is set, the processing circuit 140 is used to perform the touch operation of the wearable device 100. The pointer section 110a, the pointer section 110b, the touch panel section 120a, the touch panel section 120b, and the touch panel section 120c are taken as examples for description below.

當使用者尚未碰觸觸控面板120中的觸控面板區塊120a時，由於觸控面板區塊120a與指針110的指針區段110a重疊，因此需要校正觸控面板區塊120a與指針區段110a之間的參考電容值以避免使用者尚未碰觸時就造成誤判的狀況。此時之校正方式為處理電路140設定觸控面板區 塊120a與指針區段110a之間的參考電容值為指針區段110a與觸控面板區塊120a之間的等效電容值，也就是觸控面板120本身的電容值加上指針區段110a與觸控面板區塊120a之間的電容值。 When the user has not touched the touch panel block 120a in the touch panel 120, since the touch panel block 120a overlaps with the pointer section 110a of the pointer 110, it is necessary to calibrate the touch panel block 120a and the pointer section The reference capacitance value between 110a avoids misjudgment when the user has not touched it. The calibration method at this time is to set the touch panel area of the processing circuit 140 The reference capacitance value between the block 120a and the pointer section 110a is the equivalent capacitance value between the pointer section 110a and the touch panel block 120a, that is, the capacitance value of the touch panel 120 itself plus the pointer section 110a and The capacitance value between the touch panel blocks 120a.

此時由於觸控面板區塊120a與指針區段110a之間的等效電容值沒有大於觸控面板區塊120a與指針區段110a之間的參考電容值，處理電路140判斷為未觸碰狀態。 At this time, since the equivalent capacitance value between the touch panel block 120a and the pointer section 110a is not greater than the reference capacitance value between the touch panel block 120a and the pointer section 110a, the processing circuit 140 determines that it is in an untouched state .

當使用者碰觸觸控面板120中的觸控面板區塊120a時，由於手指與觸控面板區塊120a之間也會形成新的電容值，指針區段110a與觸控面板區塊120a之間的等效電容值加上手指與觸控面板區塊120a之間的電容值大於所設定的參考電容值，因此處理電路140判斷為觸控而執行穿戴式裝置100的觸控操作。 When the user touches the touch panel block 120a in the touch panel 120, a new capacitance value is also formed between the finger and the touch panel block 120a. The equivalent capacitance value between and the capacitance value between the finger and the touch panel block 120a is greater than the set reference capacitance value, so the processing circuit 140 determines that it is a touch and executes the touch operation of the wearable device 100.

當使用者尚未碰觸觸控面板120中的觸控面板區塊120b時，由於觸控面板區塊120b與指針110未重疊，因此處理電路140無需校正觸控面板區塊120b的參考電容值，而維持觸控面板區塊120b的參考電容值為觸控面板120本身的電容值。 When the user has not touched the touch panel block 120b in the touch panel 120, since the touch panel block 120b does not overlap the pointer 110, the processing circuit 140 does not need to calibrate the reference capacitance value of the touch panel block 120b. The reference capacitance value of the touch panel block 120b is maintained as the capacitance value of the touch panel 120 itself.

此時由於觸控面板區塊120b的等效電容值沒有大於觸控面板區塊120b的參考電容值，處理電路140判斷為未觸碰狀態。 At this time, since the equivalent capacitance value of the touch panel block 120b is not greater than the reference capacitance value of the touch panel block 120b, the processing circuit 140 determines that it is in an untouched state.

當使用者碰觸觸控面板120中的觸控面板區塊120b時，手指與觸控面板區塊120b之間形成新的電容值，此時觸控面板區塊120b的等效電容值大於觸控面板區塊 120b的參考電容值，也就是觸控面板120本身的電容值加上手指與觸控面板區塊120b之間的電容值大於觸控面板120本身的電容值，因此處理電路140判斷為觸控而執行穿戴式裝置100的觸控操作。 When the user touches the touch panel block 120b in the touch panel 120, a new capacitance value is formed between the finger and the touch panel block 120b. At this time, the equivalent capacitance value of the touch panel block 120b is greater than that of the touch panel block 120b. Control panel block The reference capacitance value of 120b, that is, the capacitance value of the touch panel 120 itself plus the capacitance value between the finger and the touch panel block 120b is greater than the capacitance value of the touch panel 120 itself, so the processing circuit 140 determines that it is a touch and Perform a touch operation of the wearable device 100.

當使用者尚未碰觸觸控面板120中的觸控面板區塊120c時，由於觸控面板區塊120c與指針110的指針區段110b重疊，因此需要校正參考電容值以避免使用者尚未碰觸時就造成誤判的狀況。此時之校正方式為處理電路140設定觸控面板區塊120c與指針區段110b之間的參考電容值為觸控面板區塊120c與指針區段110b之間的等效電容值，也就是觸控面板120本身的電容值加上指針區段110b與觸控面板區塊120c之間的電容值。 When the user has not touched the touch panel block 120c in the touch panel 120, since the touch panel block 120c overlaps with the pointer section 110b of the pointer 110, the reference capacitance value needs to be corrected to prevent the user from not touching Sometimes it causes misjudgment. The correction method at this time is that the processing circuit 140 sets the reference capacitance value between the touch panel block 120c and the pointer section 110b as the equivalent capacitance value between the touch panel block 120c and the pointer section 110b, that is, touch The capacitance value of the control panel 120 itself is added to the capacitance value between the pointer section 110b and the touch panel block 120c.

此時由於觸控面板區塊120c與指針區段110b之間的等效電容值沒有大於觸控面板區塊120c與指針區段110b之間的參考電容值，處理電路140判斷為未觸碰狀態。 At this time, since the equivalent capacitance value between the touch panel block 120c and the pointer section 110b is not greater than the reference capacitance value between the touch panel block 120c and the pointer section 110b, the processing circuit 140 determines that it is in an untouched state .

當使用者碰觸觸控面板120中的觸控面板區塊120c時，由於手指與觸控面板區塊120c之間也會形成新的電容值，指針區段110b與觸控面板區塊120c之間的等效電容值加上手指與觸控面板區塊120c之間的電容值大於所設定的參考電容值，因此處理電路140判斷為觸控而執行穿戴式裝置100的觸控操作。 When the user touches the touch panel block 120c in the touch panel 120, since a new capacitance value is also formed between the finger and the touch panel block 120c, the difference between the pointer section 110b and the touch panel block 120c The equivalent capacitance value between and the capacitance value between the finger and the touch panel block 120c is greater than the set reference capacitance value, so the processing circuit 140 determines that it is a touch and executes the touch operation of the wearable device 100.

於一實施例中，指針區段的分段方式可以設計為指針區段110a大於指針區段110b，觸控面板區塊120a、觸控面板區塊120b及觸控面板區塊120c彼此相等。因此指針區段110a與觸控面板區塊120a之間的等效電容值大於指針區段110b與觸控面板區塊120c之間的等效電容值，指針區段110a與觸控面板區塊120a之間的參考電容值大於指針區段110b與觸控面板區塊120c之間的參考電容值。 In one embodiment, the segmentation method of the pointer section can be designed such that the pointer section 110a is larger than the pointer section 110b, and the touch panel section 120a, the touch panel section 120b, and the touch panel section 120c are equal to each other. Therefore, the equivalent capacitance value between the pointer section 110a and the touch panel block 120a is greater than the equivalent capacitance value between the pointer section 110b and the touch panel block 120c, and the pointer section 110a and the touch panel block 120a The reference capacitance value between is greater than the reference capacitance value between the pointer section 110b and the touch panel block 120c.

也就是說，不同面板區塊與不同指針區段之間的參考電容值是根據面板區塊與指針區段之間重疊的面積所設定，重疊的面積不同，則會有不同的參考電容值。 That is to say, the reference capacitance values between different panel blocks and different pointer sections are set according to the overlapping area between the panel block and the pointer section, and different overlapping areas will have different reference capacitance values.

請參考第3B圖，第3B圖繪示根據本揭示文件之一實施例的指針區段及觸控面板區塊示意圖。指針110包含指針區段110c、指針區段110d及指針區段110e，觸控面板120包含觸控面板區塊120d、觸控面板區塊120e及觸控面板區塊120f。為了方便說明，以指針區段110c、指針區段110d、觸控面板區塊120e、觸控面板區塊120d及觸控面板區塊120e及觸控面板區塊120f做為例子說明，但本揭示文件之指針及觸控面板不以此分段及分區方法為限，可以根據實際情況而有其他設計方式。 Please refer to FIG. 3B. FIG. 3B illustrates a schematic diagram of a pointer section and a touch panel block according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. The pointer 110 includes a pointer section 110c, a pointer section 110d, and a pointer section 110e. The touch panel 120 includes a touch panel section 120d, a touch panel section 120e, and a touch panel section 120f. For the convenience of description, the pointer section 110c, the pointer section 110d, the touch panel section 120e, the touch panel section 120d, the touch panel section 120e and the touch panel section 120f are taken as examples for description, but this disclosure The file pointer and touch panel are not limited to this segmentation and partitioning method, and other design methods can be used according to the actual situation.

於此實施例中，觸控面板區塊的分區方法可以是以觸控面板區塊120d的面積為1倍，其他區塊的面積設計為0.6倍到1.2倍之間。例如，觸控面板區塊120f設計為1.2倍，觸控面板區塊120e設計為0.6倍。 In this embodiment, the partition method of the touch panel block may be that the area of the touch panel block 120d is 1 time, and the area of the other blocks is designed to be between 0.6 times and 1.2 times. For example, the touch panel block 120f is designed to be 1.2 times, and the touch panel block 120e is designed to be 0.6 times.

於此實施例中，指針區段110c、指針區段110d及指針區段110e可以設計為彼此相等。如前文所描述，不同面板區塊與不同指針區段之間的參考電容值是根據面板區塊與指針區段之間重疊的面積及觸控面板120本身的電 容值所設定，由於與指針區段110c、指針區段110d及指針區段110e重疊的觸控面板區塊120d、觸控面板區塊120e及觸控面板區塊120f之面積相等，因此，參考電容值可以與觸控面板120本身的電容值相關。以下詳細說明。 In this embodiment, the pointer section 110c, the pointer section 110d, and the pointer section 110e can be designed to be equal to each other. As described above, the reference capacitance values between different panel blocks and different pointer sections are based on the overlap area between the panel block and the pointer section and the electrical power of the touch panel 120 itself. The capacitance value is set, because the areas of the touch panel block 120d, the touch panel block 120e, and the touch panel block 120f overlapping the pointer section 110c, the pointer section 110d, and the pointer section 110e are equal, so refer to The capacitance value may be related to the capacitance value of the touch panel 120 itself. The following is a detailed description.

當使用者尚未碰觸觸控面板120中的觸控面板區塊120d時，由於觸控面板區塊120d與指針110的指針區段110e重疊，因此需要校正參考電容值以避免使用者尚未碰觸時就造成誤判的狀況。此時之校正方式為處理電路140設定觸控面板區塊120d與指針區段110e之間的參考電容值為觸控面板區塊120d與指針區段110e之間的等效電容值，也就是觸控面板120本身的電容值加上指針區段110e與觸控面板區塊120d之間的電容值。 When the user has not touched the touch panel block 120d in the touch panel 120, since the touch panel block 120d overlaps with the pointer section 110e of the pointer 110, the reference capacitance value needs to be corrected to prevent the user from not touching Sometimes it causes misjudgment. The correction method at this time is that the processing circuit 140 sets the reference capacitance value between the touch panel block 120d and the pointer section 110e as the equivalent capacitance value between the touch panel block 120d and the pointer section 110e, that is, touch The capacitance value of the control panel 120 itself is added to the capacitance value between the pointer section 110e and the touch panel block 120d.

同樣地，當使用者尚未碰觸觸控面板120中的觸控面板區塊120e或觸控面板區塊120f時，由於指針區段110c、指針區段110d及指針區段110e設計為彼此相等，因此處理電路140設定觸控面板區塊120e與指針區段110c之間的參考電容值為觸控面板120本身的電容值加上指針區段110c與觸控面板區塊120e之間的電容值，設定觸控面板區塊120f與指針區段110d之間的參考電容值為觸控面板120本身的電容值加上指針區段110d與觸控面板區塊120f之間的電容值。 Similarly, when the user has not touched the touch panel block 120e or the touch panel block 120f in the touch panel 120, since the pointer section 110c, the pointer section 110d, and the pointer section 110e are designed to be equal to each other, Therefore, the processing circuit 140 sets the reference capacitance value between the touch panel block 120e and the pointer section 110c as the capacitance value of the touch panel 120 itself plus the capacitance value between the pointer section 110c and the touch panel block 120e, The reference capacitance value between the touch panel block 120f and the pointer section 110d is set to be the capacitance value of the touch panel 120 itself plus the capacitance value between the pointer section 110d and the touch panel block 120f.

而指針區段110e與觸控面板區塊120d之間的電容值、指針區段110c與觸控面板區塊120e之間的電容值和指針區段110d與觸控面板區塊120f之間的電容值相等， 因此三者所設定的參考電容值可依據觸控面板120中的觸控面板區塊而設定。 The capacitance value between the pointer section 110e and the touch panel block 120d, the capacitance value between the pointer section 110c and the touch panel block 120e, and the capacitance between the pointer section 110d and the touch panel block 120f Equal values, Therefore, the reference capacitance values set by the three can be set according to the touch panel blocks in the touch panel 120.

當使用者碰觸觸控面板120中的觸控面板區塊120d時，由於手指與觸控面板區塊120d之間也會形成新的電容值，指針區段110e與觸控面板區塊120d之間的等效電容值加上手指與觸控面板區塊120d之間的電容值大於所設定的參考電容值，因此處理電路140判斷為觸控而執行穿戴式裝置100的觸控操作。使用者碰觸觸控面板120中的觸控面板區塊120e及觸控面板區塊120f時的操作相同，在此不再贅述。 When the user touches the touch panel block 120d in the touch panel 120, a new capacitance value is also formed between the finger and the touch panel block 120d. The equivalent capacitance value between the fingers and the capacitance value between the finger and the touch panel block 120d is greater than the set reference capacitance value, so the processing circuit 140 determines that it is a touch and executes the touch operation of the wearable device 100. The operations when the user touches the touch panel block 120e and the touch panel block 120f in the touch panel 120 are the same, and will not be repeated here.

步驟S212，透過處理電路140設定指針區段中的第二指針區段及觸控面板區塊中的第二觸控面板區塊之間的第二等效電容值。於此實施例中，第二指針區段可以是指針區段110c，第二觸控面板區塊可以是觸控面板區塊120e。 In step S212, the second equivalent capacitance value between the second pointer section in the pointer section and the second touch panel section in the touch panel section is set through the processing circuit 140. In this embodiment, the second pointer section may be the pointer section 110c, and the second touch panel block may be the touch panel block 120e.

In this embodiment, the third pointer section may be the pointer section 110d, and the third touch panel block may be the touch panel block 120f.
