Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
In one embodiment, an apparatus includes a cover panel. The apparatus also includes a first optically clear adhesive (OCA) layer coupled to the cover panel. The apparatus also includes a substrate coupled to the first OCA layer. The substrate has drive or sense electrodes of a touch sensor disposed on a first side. The substrate also has a first connection pad region. The first connection pad region includes a first outer zone, a second outer zone, and a first connection pad zone. The first OCA layer extends to portions of at least one of the first outer zone of the first connection pad region, the second outer zone of the first connection pad region, and the first connection pad zone of the first connection pad region.
