Abstract:
A touch display device, a display panel, a touch-sensing method, a touch-sensing circuit, and a driving circuit, are discussed, which can detect a signal utilizing a pixel electrode and can remove a noise component that may be generated at the time of touch position sensing or fingerprint sensing while sensing a touch position or a fingerprint based on the detected signal, thereby improving sensing performance.
Abstract:
A touch display device can sense a fingerprint touch using a pixel electrode and a data line. Before a capacitance variance of the pixel electrode in a fingerprint touch sensing interval is sensed, the voltage of only the data line is fixed to be identical to a voltage applied to a (+) terminal of an operational amplifier of a fingerprint touch sensing unit so that a capacitance variance of the data line is not transferred to the fingerprint touch sensing unit, and a capacitance variance of only the pixel electrode may be transferred. The capacitance variance of only the pixel electrode, not including the capacitance variance of the data line, is transferred to the fingerprint touch sensing unit so that the distinction between a peak and a valley of a fingerprint touching a display panel is enhanced. Therefore, a fingerprint touch sensing performance can be improved.

Abstract:
Disclosed are a display panel and a display device which can sense a fingerprint. A photo-sensor is disposed within a sub-pixel, a voltage change of a pixel electrode according to a leakage current of the photo-sensor exposed to light is sensed, and a fingerprint is sensed, so that a fingerprint can be sensed in an active area of a display panel. Also, a voltage change of the pixel electrode is sensed using a common electrode without directly applying a driving voltage to the pixel electrode, so as to perform driving of the pixel electrode and light irradiation together, thereby enabling a reduction in a fingerprint sensing mode and detection of only the level of a leakage voltage during fingerprint sensing. Therefore, a sensing circuit can be efficiently configured, and sensing sensitivity can be improved.

The present disclosure relates to a touch display device, a touch sensing system, and a touch sensing method. More specifically, touch information (fingerprint information or touch position information) may be acquired in response to current flowing in a data line through a touch sensing mode period that includes: a first period in which an optical sensor, the opposite ends of which are connected to a source node and a drain node of a switching transistor, is disposed in a pixel region, a gate signal of a turn-on level voltage is supplied to a gate line and a driving voltage is supplied to the data line; and a second period in which a gate signal of a turn-off level voltage is supplied to the gate line, a reference voltage is supplied to the data line, and an optical sensor is irradiated with light. According to the present disclosure, it is possible to accurately sense a touch position and/or a fingerprint in an optical manner using an optical sensor without being influenced by parasitic capacitance.
