Zusammenfassung:A touch screen assembly and method of testing a capacitive touch screen are disclosed, during operation thereof in which a respectively unique drive signal is applied to each of a first plurality of lines, and each of a second plurality of lines is responsive thereto, wherein a change in a response on a one of the second plurality of lines to a one of the unique drives signals is indicative of a touch event at a cross-point of the respective ones, the method comprising: modifying an amplitude of the respective unique drive signal applied to each of the first plurality of lines; and in the event of identifying a response to each modified amplitude, on each of the second plurality of read lines, determining that the touch screen does not have a fault, and otherwise determining that the touch screen has a fault.
