Abstract

The present invention provides a touch sensitive processing method for switch an electronic system into a normal operation mode upon receiving a touch gesture in a power saving mode. The electronic system includes a host and a power supply module. The host is configured to execute an operating system to control the electronic system in the normal operation mode. The power supply module is configured to supply power to the host in the normal operation mode and to cut power supply to the host in the power saving mode. The touch sensitive processing method includes: detecting multiple touch events via multiple touch sensitive electrodes of a touch panel; determining whether a power-on command is formed by these touch events; and sending a power-on notification to the power supply module for supplying power to the host and switching to the normal operation mode when the power-on command is formed by these touch events.
