Abstract
A display panel includes: display elements; a plurality of drive electrodes; one or more touch detecting electrodes that form a capacitor along with the corresponding drive electrode; a main driver unit that generates a basic drive signal including a pulse part supplied to the drive electrodes; and a first auxiliary driver unit that includes a capacitive element and that exchanges electric charges between the capacitive element and the drive electrodes in synchronization with the pulse part.
Claims12
A display panel comprising:
- display elements;
- a plurality of drive electrodes;
- one or more touch detecting electrodes that form a capacitor along with the corresponding drive electrode;
- a main driver unit that generates a basic drive signal including a pulse part supplied to the drive electrodes;
- a first auxiliary driver unit that includes a capacitive element and that exchanges electric charges between the capacitive element and the drive electrodes in synchronization with the pulse part;
- and
- a voltage supply unit,
- wherein the first auxiliary driver unit further includes a first switch that controls the exchange of electric charges between the capacitive element and the drive electrode,
- wherein the pulse part changes between two voltage levels,
- wherein the first switch is turned on at a time corresponding to a rising or falling of the pulse part,
- wherein the pulse part changes from a voltage of a first level to a voltage of a second level,
- wherein the capacitive element is set, in a period in which the first switch is turned off, to a voltage of a third level that is previously determined depending on the voltage of the second level,
- wherein the voltage supply unit is configured to generate and supply the voltage of the third level to the capacitive element, and
- wherein the first auxiliary driver unit further includes a voltage supply switch configured to control the supply of the voltage of the third level, which is generated by the voltage supply unit, to the capacitive element.
