Secondary Substrate Method
Ground Loading
Illumination Effects
Another option is to form the electrodes on a secondary PCB, flex, or similar substrate. This can then be
bonded to the front panel and interconnected to the control chip by a separate flex tail using an
ACF/ACP connection, or by a tail formed from an extension to the substrate itself. Board-to-board
connectors are also possible.
Figure 3-13. Secondary Substrate Method
Unlike with the planar approach, this style of sensor is less sensitive to ground loading. The reason for
this is that the ground loads (for example, from internal chassis components and other circuits) tend to
be further away from the electrodes and therefore do not desensitize the electrodes so much.
A non-planar approach to sensor construction means that there tends to be a physical separation
between the sensor and front panel. This has the side benefit that it allows LEDs to be incorporated in
the design more easily.
For example, using Philipp spring products as electrode extensions allows an LED to be axially mounted
inside the spring itself (see
touch graphic on the panel above it.
Another popular method of providing illumination is in the form of a light spreader or light guides, as
described for planar construction in
