Interconnection
X Routing
Y Routing
X routing is fairly trivial as long as RC time constant rules are observed. Nearby foreign signals that have
large kHz frequency
the charge transfer. Examples of circuits to consider include D-class amplifier signals, LCD or LED drive
signals.
X routing is not touch sensitive, and so X traces can be routed with ease on any layer of a PCB, including
the side nearest to touch. However, X routing must also take the Y routing into account.
Y routing must be more carefully considered, due to Cp build-up and the need to avoid an effect called
false key detection. Y routing is only very weakly touch sensitive, so it is good practice to run Y traces on
a layer that is far from touch.
The first factor, Cp build-up, is easily dealt with by avoiding routing Y traces over or close to ground
planes (or other power planes).
The second factor, false key detection, can occur wherever there is an interaction of the Y traces with the
X traces. Remember that anywhere where X and Y get close (less than 10 mm), and the field between
them is allowed to be influenced by touch, you have a potential key or at least a touch sensitive zone that
you do not expect (see
Figure 4-8.
