Filter, filtering method, and filter system
A filter includes multiple filter circuits. The filter circuits are coupled in series between an input terminal and an output terminal, to generate an output signal according to an input signal. One of the filter circuits operates as an active filter circuit or a passive filter circuit according to amplitude of the input signal.

Noise mitigation touch sensing circuit
Techniques for mitigating noise in a touch signal are disclosed. To reduce or eliminate noise in a touch signal, the touch activity can be filtered out of a touch signal, thus isolating the noise. In some examples, the noise is then provided to the non-inverting input port of a differential amplifier while the unfiltered touch signal is provided to the inverting input port of the differential amplifier. The noise, which is now common on both inputs, is automatically eliminated or reduced by the differential amplifier.
