Abstract

An electronic device disclosed herein includes a display layer generating display noise based on scanning thereof, and a sensing layer including a plurality of sense lines. A common voltage layer is coupled to the display layer and the sensing layer, with the common voltage layer capacitively coupling the display noise from the display layer to the each of the plurality of sense lines of the sensing layer via a different parasitic impedance. An amplitude of the display noise seen at an input to each sense line is a function of a location of that sense line. The electronic device includes a plurality of compensation impedances, with each compensation impedance coupled to a different one of the plurality of sense lines. Each of the plurality of compensation impedances has an impedance value such that an amplitude of the display noise at an output of each sense line is substantially equal.
