Abstract

Some disclosed embodiments relate, generally, to shaping a waveform of a reference signal used by a driver of a touch sensor to limit electromagnetic emissions (EME) emitted by a touch sensor during a sensing operation. Some disclosed embodiments relate, generally, to a DAC referenced touch sensor driver and controlling an amount of EME emitted at a touch sensor using shapes of reference signals used by a touch detector to detect touches at the touch sensor. Some disclosed embodiments relate, generally, to compensating for effects of foreign noise at a touch sensor. And more specifically, to changing a shape of a reference signal based on a change to a sampling rate made to compensate for foreign noise.
