1. A touch screen device with an integrated capacitive sensing device comprising:

  • a display device;

    a plurality of common electrodes disposed in the display device and configured for updating the display device and for transmitting transmitter signals for capacitive sensing;

    a plurality of receiver electrodes; and

    a plurality of conductive routing traces coupled to the plurality of common electrodes, the conductive routing traces shielded from the plurality of receiver electrodes by end portions of the plurality of common electrodes in a manner that reduces a capacitive coupling between the conductive routing traces and the receiver electrodes.
