Touch screen displays are becoming more popular in the market with touchscreen phones, computers, and other display devices. Capacitive touch displays are a type of touch screen display that work with anything that has an electrical charge like your finger tip. As with other displays, lighting is important to be able to see the display.
Lumitex designs and manufactures custom backlighting solutions for capacitive touch displays across many different types of applications including:
When backlighting a capacitive touch display, light is placed between the sensor and the cover layer of the screen interrupting the capacitive field. It is essential to choose a backlight that creates minimal capacitive field interruption while still being able to enhance the overall efficiency and design of the application. Our proprietary technologies offer many unique benefits to Capacitive Touch Displays:
Low-Profile - As thin as .2mm to reduce space needed and interruption to the capacitive field
Efficient - Bright, efficient and low power. We work with our customers to optimize the overall design to be power efficient and meet power requirements
Flexibility of Design
We offer many enhancements to customize our lighting to meet your product specifications. These include:
In addition, our sales and engineering teams will support you from prototyping through production.

A leading manufacturer of capacitive touch and membrane switch assemblies, contacted Lumitex to develop a custom backlight for a high end appliance, capacitive touch application. The Clad Flat Fiber light guide was selected due to it’s very thin profile, brightness, uniformity advantages to efficiently transmit enough light through the opaque glass. The Clad Flat Fiber was also designed to independently light (5) icons without any light interference from icon to icon, while using less LEDs compared to other light guide films technologies.
