Display panel and display apparatus having the same
First Claim
1. A display panel comprising:
- an array substrate on which pixels are arranged, the array substrate comprising;
a plurality of first signal lines;
a plurality of second signal lines intersecting with the first signal lines; and
sensors receiving a scan signal through the second signal lines and generating a sensing signal in response to application of an external pressure to output the sensing signal through the first signal lines in response to the scan signal.

Abstract
A display panel having a touch screen, the display panel includes an array substrate having a plurality of pixels and an opposite substrate having a plurality of touch electrodes. The array substrate includes the pixels receiving a data signal through thin film transistors and sensors electrically and physically making contact with the touch electrodes in response to an external pressure. Each sensor generates a common voltage input through the touch electrode in response to a scan signal controlling the thin film transistor as a sensing signal. Based on the generated sensing signal, a location coordinate to which the external pressure is applied is calculated, so that the number of wires for the display panel may decrease.
