Liquid crystal display device with touch panel
First Claim
1. A liquid crystal display device with a touch panel comprising:
- pixel electrodes as a plurality of electrodes each of which is arranged in each pixel arranged in a display area and to each of which a potential corresponding to a gray-scale value is applied;
common electrodes as a plurality of electrodes that extend in one direction so as to cross the display area;
detection electrodes as a plurality of electrodes that extend in a direction different from the one direction so as to cross the display area and detect a contact position on the touch panel;
a liquid crystal layer that is formed of a liquid crystal composition whose orientation is changed by an electric field formed by the pixel electrode and the common electrode; and
a drive pulse output unit that sequentially applies a potential for detecting a touch to drive electrodes as a plurality of electrodes of a portion of the common electrodes, whereinthe drive pulse output unit can output a drive pulse to the drive electrode at plural different timings within one horizontal synchronizing period for display,a potential of the detection electrodes is changed by a rising and falling of the drive pulse, anda period from the beginning of the one horizontal synchronizing period to the rising of the drive pulse is changed for each horizontal synchronizing period.
