Driver integrated circuit and display apparatus including the same
First Claim
1. A display apparatus comprising:
- a panel including a plurality of touch electrodes disposed in a display area and one or more supply lines which are disposed in a non-display area outside the display area, the one or more supply lines configured to transfer at least a touch auxiliary signal that has a phase and a potential difference mimicking a phase and a potential difference, respectively, of a touch signal supplied to the plurality of touch electrodes, during a touch sensing period;
a driver integrated circuit (IC) configured to supply a common voltage to the plurality of touch electrodes during an image display period, and supply the touch signal to the plurality of touch electrodes during the touch sensing period; and
a touch auxiliary signal supply circuit configured to supply the touch auxiliary signal to the one or more supply lines during the touch sensing period.

Abstract
Disclosed are a driver IC and a display apparatus including the same, which supply a touch auxiliary signal, having the same phase and potential difference as those of a touch signal supplied to a touch electrode which is also used as a common electrode, to a plurality of supply lines disposed in a non-display area during a touch sensing period. The driver IC includes a common voltage supply element, a touch sensing unit, and a common voltage switching unit. The common voltage switching unit connects the common voltage supply element to a plurality of touch electrode lines connected to the plurality of touch electrodes during an image display period, and during a touch sensing period, the common voltage switching unit connects the plurality of touch electrode lines to the touch sensing unit.
