Product History and Evolution

The history of Projected Capacitive Touch Screens dates back to the 1960s when touch screens were first introduced. The technology at that time was resistive, which required physical pressure to be applied to the screen for it to respond. However, the resistive technology was not ideal as it was prone to wear and tear and required recalibration frequently.

The first capacitive touch screen was invented by E.A. Johnson in 1965. Johnson’s technology used a grid of electrodes on the screen’s surface to detect the electrical charges created by the user’s finger. However, this early capacitive touch screen technology was not practical as it could only detect a single touch point.

It wasn’t until the early 2000s that Projected Capacitive Touch Screen technology became a practical reality. One of the first devices to feature this technology was the Apple iPhone, which was released in 2007. The iPhone’s multi-touch capabilities revolutionized the smartphone industry, and Projected Capacitive Touch Screens quickly became the standard for touch screen technology.

Since then, Projected Capacitive Touch Screens have continued to evolve, becoming more sensitive, durable, and responsive. So, at TouchScreenMan, we are proud to offer the latest and most advanced Projected Capacitive Touch Screens on the market.

Finally, Projected Capacitive Touch Screen technology has come a long way since its inception in the 1960s. From the early resistive touch screens to the modern and advanced Projected Capacitive Touch Screens of today, this technology has transformed the way we interact with electronic devices. At TouchScreenMan, we are committed to staying at the forefront of this technology, offering our customers the latest and most advanced touch screens available.

At the end of the day, investing in high-quality Projected Capacitive Touch Screens can make a significant difference in the success of your device or application. That’s why it’s crucial to work with a reputable and experienced touch screen manufacturer like TouchScreenMan.

  1. The G+F structure, which stands for “cover glass + film sensor,” is a type of projected capacitive touch screen technology that employs a single-layer film sensor to achieve touch functionality.With its low R&D costs, thin profile, short delivery times, and high transmission and reliability, G+F screens are an affordable option for single-touch-point devices. However, their limitations include only supporting a single touch point, low ESD resistance, low interference resistance, and being suitable for screen sizes less than 6 inches.
  2. In the G+F+F structure, or “cover glass + film sensor + film sensor,” two film sensors are used to achieve touch functionality.Known as the “Two-sheet two-ITO laminated structure,” this technology offers high accuracy, multi-touch capabilities, and excellent handwriting recognition. Additionally, G+F+F screens have a replaceable cover glass, high strength, and high reliability. However, they have lower light transmission and are more expensive, making them less common in the market. These screens are often used for high-end devices due to their reliability.
  3. The G+G structure, short for “cover glass + glass sensor,” utilizes a glass sensor to provide touch functionality. This popular design comes in two variations: SITO and DITO. G+G screens boast high accuracy, high light transmission, multi-touch support, and excellent handwriting recognition. They also have high strength, reliability, and are suitable for all screen sizes. However, they are thicker, and the sensor glass is prone to breakage. The SITO variant is more reliable in harsh environments but at a higher cost.
  4. OGS, or “one glass solution,” is a projected capacitive touch screen technology that requires only one glass layer to achieve touch functionality. The “One-sheet two-ITO laminated structure” offers the thinnest profile, high light transmittance, multi-touch support, and good handwriting recognition. However, it has low reliability, low strength, low ESD resistance, high cost, and is only suitable for screen sizes less than 15 inches. While OGS has the potential to be the future of touch screens, issues related to low strength and interference resistance need to be addressed through innovation in the glass industry.

What is a Projected Capacitive Touch Screen

A Projected Capacitive Touch Screen is a type of touch screen technology that allows users to interact with electronic devices through touch inputs. This technology works by creating an electromagnetic field above the surface of the screen and detecting changes in the field caused by the touch of a finger or stylus. Projected Capacitive Touch Screens are commonly used in various electronic devices, such as smartphones, tablets, and touch-enabled displays, due to their high level of accuracy, precision, and responsiveness.

The touch screen is made up of a glass or plastic layer, which serves as the touch surface, and a printed circuit board (PCB) that houses the touch controller and other components. When a user touches the screen, the electromagnetic field is disrupted, and the touch controller detects the location and movement of the touch. The touch controller then sends this information to the device, which interprets it as a touch event and executes the corresponding command.

One of the key advantages of Projected Capacitive Touch Screens is their ability to recognize multi-touch inputs, allowing users to perform multiple touch actions simultaneously. This feature is particularly useful for applications that require complex touch inputs, such as playing games or using touch-based interfaces.

Projected Capacitive Touch Screens are also known for their high level of durability and reliability, as they are resistant to wear and tear, and can withstand repeated use over time. Additionally, they are often equipped with advanced features, such as palm rejection and gesture recognition, which enhance the user experience and allow for more intuitive and natural touch interactions.

Dr Pan: Welcome to DISPLAY Museum. I am Dr Pan, the curator of Museum.

Greg: Hello, Dr Pan. I am Greg. I came here to learn about Projected Capacitive Touch Screen.

Hello, Greg. Projected Capacitive Touch Screen is kind of like digital matrix resistive touch screen. The X and Y electrodes are intersecting in matrix. It is going to need one or two dedicated designed and etched ITO layers to achieve the touch function. When a finger comes close to the surface of projected capacitive touch screen, it will absorb some electricity from the near insulated ITO grids and the electrostatic capacitance will change according to distance from the finger. The controller can detect the touch point as it can calculate the variations of capacitance   through the X and Y electrodes.

There are 3 types of structures in projected capacitive technology.

The first “One-sheet one-ITO piled-up structure” has X and Y electrodes piled on one sheet. Check the structure. Advantage: low cost, high transmittance and high pass rate. Disadvantage: Poor anti-interference ability.

The second “One-sheet two-ITO laminated structure” consists of two ITO laminated each other with X and Y electrodes in between. Check the structures. Advantage: good performance, strong antistatic ability.  Disadvantage: easy to be interfered.

The two above structures are self-capacitors. They are simple, low cost, low power consumption, but easy to be interfered, only suitable for small sizes.

The third type is “Two-sheet two-ITO laminated structure”. It is mutual capacitor and consists of two sheets with X and Y electrodes respectively. Check the structures. Advantage: good performance, high pass rate, strong anti-interfered, suitable for all sizes. Disadvantage: complicated, high power consumption and high cost.

Greg: Dr Pan, I heard people said that projected capacitive touch screen is replacing surface capacitive touch screen. Is it true?

Dr Pan:  Absolutely. These are 3 reasons.

  1. It can support multi-touch, and support a lot of gestures: tap and drag, rotate, draw and zoom.   
  2. it is more reliable and adaptable under high and low temperature and high humidity conditions.
  3. The sensitivity can be adjusted to high level, it can be operated with pen writing and gloved fingers over a cover glass or a cover plastic sheet.

Greg: Thank you, Dr Pan. Now I got it.

Dr Pan:  Welcome to contact us if you have any question.

Perhaps you are searching for a touch screen with a low price point. In that case, GF could be your best option, provided you are willing to accept a size equal to or less than 6 inches. GF is unable to support multi-touch functionality and has low anti-ESD capabilities. Alternatively, you could opt for a more expensive option such as GG (DITO), which supports all sizes and has a thick and sturdy design, although it may have lower environmental reliability.

If environmental sustainability is a priority for you, then GG (SITO) would be a better choice as it provides a more eco-friendly option with higher environmental reliability. OGS is the thinnest option available and suitable for sizes equal to or less than 15 inches, but it does have the lowest anti-ESD capability and may not be as environmentally reliable as GG (SITO).

For the best features, GFF is your top choice, but it does come with a higher price tag.
