Zero-dimensional Sensor
A method of construction in which the electrodes and the traces for the sensor are fabricated on the
same plane of the insulating substrate (for example, a PCB or Flex PCB). See

See also non-planar construction.
The measure of the smallest movement on a slider or touchscreen in an axis that causes a change in
the reported coordinate for that axis. Resolution is normally expressed in bits and tends to refer to
resolution across the whole axis in question. For example, a slider of length 100 mm and a resolution
of 10 bits could resolve a movement of 0.0977 mm. Jitter in the reported position degrades usable
resolution.
A sensor with only one direct connection to the sensor controller. A self-capacitance sensor tends to
emit electric fields in all directions. This type of sensor is suitable for implementating sensors for use
with QTouch
See also mutual-capacitance sensor.
The component that detects a touch. That is, a zero-dimensional key, a one-dimensional slider or
wheel, or a two-dimensional touchscreen or touchpad. Sensors consist of one or more electrodes.
A one-dimensional arrangement of electrodes whose capacitance changes when touched, allowing
the location of touch to be computed in one axis.
The base material carrying the electrodes. The substrate is usually a low-loss material, such as PCB
materials, acrylic, polycarbonate or glass, but it can be almost any insulating material.
A two-dimensional arrangement of electrodes whose capacitance changes when touched, allowing
the location of touch to be computed in both X and Y axes. The output from the XY computation is a
pair of numbers, typically 10-bits each, ranging from 0 to 1023, representing the extents of the
touchscreen active region.
A sensor that detects the movement of a finger during touch along two axes. Typical implementations
of two-dimensional sensors are touchscreens and touchpads.
The ability of a touchscreen to report two concurrent touches. The touches are reported as two separate
sets of XY coordinates.
A sensor that represents a single point of contact. The typical implementation of a zero-dimensional
sensor is a key.
