Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A resistive touch panel includes an ITO layer, a glass layer, and an insulation layer sandwiched between the ITO layer and the glass layer. The ITO layer is cut into a continuous zigzag-shaped ITO strip by a number of first and second etched lines which are equidistantly spaced and arranged in an alternate fashion. The ITO strip is connected between a positive electrode and a negative electrode. The glass layer includes an ITO covering portion and a peripheral output bus surrounding the ITO covering portion. The resistance touch panel defines a Cartesian coordinate system for locating a touch point thereon, each touch point spatially corresponding to a given position on the ITO strip, the power supply generates a given voltage at given position of the ITO strip, the output bus transmits a signal associated with the voltage to an outside processor. A related electronic device is also provided.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1.
