Why Does Touch Sensitivity Decrease After Touch Screen Laminated With LCD?
Introduction: Why does a single touch screen perform normally in bare testing, but after full lamination with an LCD display, it suffers from touch delay, discontinuous touch, insensitive pressing, touch drift, and edge touch failure? These issues are not caused by poor quality of the touch IC. Instead, they result from interference brought by interlayer structure, material superposition and internal stress. Meanwhile, how can we distinguish full lamination modules from air
