DISPLAY DEVICE WITH TOUCH DETECTION FUNCTION - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18233487 titled 'DISPLAY DEVICE WITH TOUCH DETECTION FUNCTION

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a display device with touch detection capabilities.

  • The display device includes pixel electrodes arranged in a matrix, scanning signal lines, a drive electrode, and touch detection electrodes.
  • The touch detection electrodes have a transparent conductive body and include one or more slits where the conductive body is not present.
  • The slits of the touch detection electrodes are positioned in a different direction from the scanning signal lines and have a predetermined interval between them.
  • The interval between the slits is a multiple of a predetermined pixel pitch, which is the distance between the pixel electrodes.


Original Abstract Submitted

According to an aspect, a display device with a touch detection function includes: a plurality of pixel electrodes arranged in a matrix; a plurality of scanning signal lines; a drive electrode that faces the pixel electrodes; and a plurality of touch detection electrodes including a detection electrode pattern of a transparent conductive body that faces the drive electrode. The detection electrode pattern includes one or more slits each of which is a region where the transparent conductive body is not present. The slits of the detection electrode pattern of the touch detection electrodes extend in a direction different from an extending direction of the scanning signal lines with a slit pitch having a predetermined interval therebetween in the extending direction of the scanning signal lines. The slit pitch is multiples of a natural number of a predetermined pixel pitch in which the pixel electrodes are arranged.
