The invention relates to low power touch sensing during a sleep state of an electronic device. An electronic device is disclosed. The electronic device can sense touch on its touch screen while in a sleep state in a manner that allows the electronic device to respond to certain touch inputs, while consuming less power due to touch sensing than while in an awake state. For example, sensing touch during the sleep state can allow the electronic device to wake (e.g., transition from the sleep state to the awake state) in response to detecting a certain touch input (e.g., a tap or other touch input) on its touch screen while in the sleep state. Various ways for the electronic device to sense touch during the sleep state are disclosed. 本发明题为"电子设备的睡眠状态期间的低功率触摸感测"。本发明公开了一种电子设备。该电子设备在处于睡眠状态时可感测其触摸屏上的触摸，使得允许该电子设备响应于某些触摸输入，同时由于触摸感测而消耗的电力小于处于唤醒状态时消耗的电力。例如，在睡眠状态期间感测触摸可唤醒电子设备(例如，从睡眠状态转变为唤醒状态)，以响应于在处于睡眠状态时检测到其触摸屏上的某些触摸输入(例如，轻击或其它触摸输入)。本发明公开了电子设备在睡眠状态期间感测触摸的各种方式。
