主旨： FW: Discrepancy result between MTE and TTHE

All,

Pls give highest priority to this request as it is blocking us from moving into NTI phase. See below comments from KT on touch malfunction issue.

As I was informed last time, the dielectric constant of the PC ITO is 3.0 at 100KHz. Inoue-san/Becky pls confirm.

What is the dielectric constant of the planerized layer at 100KHz? Anthony/Nathan, pls confirm.

What AG film substrate and coating was used in these samples? Anthony/Nathan, pls confirm.

Hi Thiaku, we used 0.3mmT Sumitomo PC/PMMA film and T14 coating for last OPS samples build.

What is the dielectric constant of the AG film at 100KHz? Anthony/Nathan, pls confirm.

+ Krishan and Marta,

Hi Thiaku,

Have further investigated with Parade FAE in the afternoon and still they are not functional. We observed the self-cap in Tx (bottom layer) looks OK but for whatever reason
the upper Rx layer has very high (at least over double compared to original PFF design) self-cap.
It is believed the raw signal in upper Rx layer may be saturated and this is the reason of touch is not tracking. If so, I like to check again from the basic as what is the
dielectric constant of each layer in PCL? If any layer has very high dielectric constant, it will explain.
Or if there is any conductive layer between surface and ITO layer, it will also explain but as you double confirmed, this seems not the case.

Can you please double check with each vendor of dielectric constant in 100KHz range?
In my side, several panels will be shipped to Parade Seattle HQ for further FA and to see if it can overcome with further FW tuning.

Thank you
K.T.
