Abstract
Disclosed is a micro-LED touch display device in which an optimized partial sensing scheme is applied to a less-touch-sensitive area where an area size of a touch sensing block is small. The micro-LED touch display device includes a display panel including a plurality of pixels, each including a micro-LED, and a micro-driver that controls an operation of the plurality of pixels, wherein a display area of the display panel is divided into a plurality of touch pixel blocks, wherein each analog front end circuit is disposed in each of the plurality of touch pixel blocks and is configured to drive each of the plurality of touch pixel blocks, based on an individual touch driving signal.
