Abstract

A touch system using a processor to configure a touch detection architecture and including a sensor unit, a connection unit, a touch scan unit, a touch detection unit, and a processor unit. The sensor unit has a plurality of sensors. The connection unit determines a sensors-joined configuration of the plurality of sensors according to at least one connection control signal. The touch scan unit coupling at least one touch signal to the connection unit according to at least one scan configuration signal. The touch detection unit outputting the touch signal and deriving touch information from a parameter of the touch signal according to at least one operation mode configuration signal. The processor unit outputting the at least one connection control signal, the scan configuration signal, and the operation mode configuration signal according to a content of a control table, and receiving the touch information.
