Abstract

A method of controlling a touch screen which includes electrode pads provided in response to a display is provided, the method includes: performing a pre-scan of scanning the electrode pads under a deactivation mode of the display; confirming a first touch input during the pre-scan; performing a high-speed fine scan of scanning the electrode pads with a fine high frequency that is higher than a frequency for the pre-scan; evaluating a touch validity of the first touch input of the pre-scan via the high-speed fine scan; performing a fine scan of scanning the electrode pads that is higher than the frequency for the pre-scan and lower than the frequency of the high-speed fine scan, when the touch validity of the first touch input is satisfied; sensing a second touch input during the fine scan; and changing the display into an activation mode in response to the second touch input.
