The self capacitance in cell touch display panel provided by the present invention comprises an array substrate. Please refer to
The substrate 210 may be a rigid substrate 210, such as a glass substrate 210, or a flexible substrate 210, such as a polyimide plastic substrate 210.
The driving unit 220 is located on the substrate 210, for example, on the lower side or the upper side of the substrate 210. The driving unit 220 outputs a touch signal and a first common voltage. The touch signal is outputted to touch electrodes 230 which are mentioned later for detecting whether a touch control occurs. The first common voltage is provided to the touch electrodes 230 so that the touch electrodes 230 serve as common electrodes for pixel capacitors.
The common electrode layer is provided on the substrate 210, and the common electrode layer comprises a plurality of touch electrodes 230, which are separately arranged. The plurality of touch electrodes 230 are electrically insulated from one another. In this embodiment, touch electrode 230 has a rectangular shape. The touch electrode 230 has a function of detecting a touch control, i.e., as a touch electrode 230, and has a display function, i.e., a common electrode of a pixel capacitor. Namely, the touch electrodes 230 in this embodiment have two functions, which is conducive to being light and thin for the touch display panel and can reduce the cost. The plurality of touch electrodes 230 receive the touch signal and the first common voltage in time division. For instance, the touch electrodes 230 receive the touch signal in a first time period, and the touch electrode 230 receive the first common voltage in a second time period. The first time period and second time period are different. In this embodiment, the first time period and the second time are included in a frame of the self capacitance in cell touch display panel. In this embodiment, the touch signal and the first common voltage received on the touch electrode 230 are outputted by the driving unit 220.
The plurality of wires 240 are provided on the substrate 210 and extend along a first direction (arrow direction in the figure). In this embodiment, the first direction is a direction from top to bottom. Namely, the wires 240 extend downward. However, the present invention is not limited thereto, and in other embodiments of the present invention, the first direction may be a direction from bottom to top. Two ends of each of the wires 240 are electrically connected to the touch electrodes 230 and the driving unit 220, respectively. Then, the lengths of the corresponding wires 240 are different depending on the different distances between the touch electrodes 230 and the driving unit 220. Namely, overlapped areas of the wires 240 having different lengths with the touch electrodes 230 are different. The wires 240 transmit the signal outputted from the driving unit 220.
In this embodiment, for alleviating the problem that the first common voltage uniformity of the touch electrodes 230 is poor, at least one compensation line is located on the substrate and is separately arranged from the wires. Namely, the wires 240 are electrically insulated from the compensation lines 250, and the touch signal or the first common voltage signal transmitted on the wires 240 will not be transmitted to the compensation lines 250. In this embodiment, a number of the compensation lines 250 is one. Certainly, in other embodiments of the present invention, the number of the compensation lines may be plural, such as two, three, four, ten and twenty. In this embodiment, the compensation line 250 extends in a direction opposite to the first direction. Namely, the compensation line 250 extends from bottom to top. The compensation line 250 is overlapped with the at least one touch electrode 230. In this embodiment, the compensation line 250 overlaps with the plurality of touch electrodes 230. Certainly, in other embodiments of the present invention, the compensation line may be partially overlapped with one touch electrode, overlapped with one touch electrode, overlapped with two touch electrodes or overlapped with three touch electrodes. Here, the overlap of the compensation line 250 with one touch electrode 230 means that the compensation line 250 runs through the touch electrode 230 or does not run through the touch electrode 230. The compensation line 250 receives a second common voltage as the touch electrode 230 receives the first common voltage. The second common voltage is equal to the first common voltage, such as both 5V. The second common voltage may be derived from the driving unit 220 or may not be derived from the driving unit 220.
In this embodiment, since two ends of each of the wires 240 are electrically connected to one of the touch electrodes 230 and the driving unit 220, respectively. Therefore, the arrangement of the wires 240 is not the running through type. When the touch electrode 230 acts as a touch, the RC loading is small so that the touch signal is less distorted in transmission and has better touch characteristics; besides, the compensation line 250 overlaps at least one touch electrode 230, and the compensation line 250 receives a second common voltage as the touch electrode 230 receives the first common voltage, and the first common voltage is equal to the second common voltage. Accordingly, the second common voltage transmitted by the compensation line 250 may enhance the first common voltage on the touch electrode 230 which is overlapped therewith for improving the problem that the first common voltage uniformity of the touch electrodes 230 is poor to further improve the display effect of the screen.
In this embodiment, the compensation line 250 is provided corresponding to one of the wires 240. Specifically, it is provided corresponding to the shortest wire 240. The compensation line 250 is right provided for the shortest wire 240, i.e. the compensation line 250 is located on an extension line of the shortest wire 240. Certainly, in other embodiment of the present invention, the compensation line also may be slightly offset from the wire. Namely, the compensation line may be located corresponding to one side of the wire.
In this embodiment, the array substrate further comprises a control switch 280, wherein a control end of the control switch 280 receives a control voltage to control on and off thereof, and an input end of the control switch 280 receives the second common voltage, and an output end of the control switch 280 is electrically connected to all of the compensation lines 250. In this embodiment, the control switch 280 is a thin film transistor, and a number of the thin film transistor is one, and the number of the compensation line 250 is one. In other embodiments of the present invention, the control switch may be a MOS transistor.
In this embodiment, M sets of touch electrodes 230 are formed on the substrate 210, and each set comprises N of the touch electrodes 230, i.e. M*N of the touch electrodes 230 are provided, wherein N, M≥2. For instance, M is a positive integer, such as 2, 3, 6, 8, 10 or 20, and N is a positive integer, such as 2, 3, 6, 8, 10 or 20. N of the touch electrodes 230 in each set are arranged in the first direction. In this embodiment, the first direction is a direction from top to bottom, and N of the touch electrodes 230 in each set are formed in a column. A number of the wires 240 is M*N. Each wire 240 is electrically connected to one touch electrode 230. Namely, the touch electrodes 230 have one-to-one relationship with the wires 240. In this embodiment, the driving unit 220 is located on the lower side of the touch electrodes 230. One end of the wire 240 is electrically connected to the touch electrode 230 corresponding thereto. Thus, the lengths of the wires 240 electrically connected to the touch electrodes 230 in the same set are arranged in a descending order or in an ascending order. In this embodiment, the lengths of the wires 240 electrically connected to the touch electrodes 230 in the same set are arranged in a descending order. Please continue referring to
In this embodiment, a layer where the wires 240 are located on the substrate 210 is different from a layer where the touch electrodes 230 are located on the substrate 210. For instance, the wires 240 are located above or below the touch electrodes 230, and an insulation layer is provided between the wires 240 and the touch electrodes 230, and the electrical connection between the lead 240 and the touch electrode 230 is achieved by a through hole penetrating the insulation layer. In this embodiment, the compensation lines 250 and the wires 240 are located in the same layer on the substrate 210. Certainly, in other embodiments of the present invention, the compensation lines 250 and the wires 240 may also be located in different layers on the substrate 210. For instance, the wires 240 are located below the touch electrodes 230, and the compensation lines 250 are located above the touch electrodes 230.

In this embodiment, the opposition of one compensation line 250 and one wire 240 means that the lower end of the compensation line 250 is closest to the upper end of the wire 240. For instance in
In this embodiment, the number of the compensation lines 250 is one, and then the second common voltage on the compensation line 250 has a limited improvement in the display effect of the screen. The second embodiment will be described below to further improve the display effect of the screen.

In this embodiment, the compensation line 250 is right provided for one of the wires 240, i.e. the compensation line 250 is located on an extension line the one of the wires 240. A length of the compensation line 350 is negatively correlated with a length of a corresponding wire 240. The lengths of the wires 240 electrically connected to the touch electrodes 230 in the same set are arranged in a descending order, and thus, in this embodiment, the compensation lines 350 in the same set are arranged in a descending order. Then, the overlapped areas of the compensation lines 350 with the touch electrodes 230 in the same set are different. In this embodiment, the compensation line 350 is in a complementary relationship with the wire 240. Any wire 240 is equal or approximately equal to a sum of the lengths of the compensation lines 350 corresponding thereto. One end of the compensation line 350 correspondingly close to one end of the wire 240 and the one end of the wire 240 correspondingly close to the one end of the compensation line 350 are located above or below the same touch electrode 230. In this embodiment, the arrangements of the compensation lines 350 in any two sets are the same or similar. Because there are M sets, the number of the compensation lines 350 of any length is M. For instance, the length of the first compensation line 350 (the first compensation line 350 from the left side) corresponding to the second set to the Mth set is the same as the length of the first compensation line 350 in the first set. Namely, the overlapped areas of the touch electrodes 230 are the same; the length of the second compensation line 350 (the second compensation line 350 from the left side) corresponding to the second set to the Mth set is the same as the length of the second compensation line 350 in the first set. Namely, the overlapped areas of the touch electrodes 230 are the same. The length of the first compensation line 350 is smaller than the length of the second compensation line 350 corresponding to the first set; the length of the third compensation line 350 (the third compensation line 350 from the left side) corresponding to the second set to the Mth set is the same as the length of the third compensation line 350 in the first set. Namely, the overlapped areas of the touch electrodes 230 are the same. The length of the second compensation line 350 is smaller than the length of the third compensation line 350 corresponding to the first set; . . . ; the length of the Nth compensation line 350 (the Nth compensation line 350 from the left side) corresponding to the second set to the Mth set is the same as the length of the Nth compensation line 350 in the first set. Namely, the overlapped areas of the touch electrodes 230 are the same. The length of the N-1th compensation line 350 is smaller than the length of the Nth compensation line 350 corresponding to the first set. The overlapped areas of the compensation lines 350 in the same set with the touch electrodes 230 are different. However, for the compensation lines 350, the overlapped areas of the compensation lines 350 with the touch electrodes 230 are partially the same and partially different. Besides, in other embodiment of the present invention, the lengths of all the compensation lines can be identical. Namely, the overlapped areas of all the compensation lines with the touch electrodes are equal. For instance, only one compensation line corresponding to each set of touch electrodes. The compensation line is arranged corresponding to the last wire. The length of these compensation lines is equal to the length of the last compensation line in each set in this embodiment. Besides, in other embodiments of the present invention, the lengths of all the compensation lines can be completely different. Namely, the overlapped areas of all the compensation lines with the touch electrodes are different. For instance, there are only N compensation lines, and the arrangement order of the N compensation lines is the same as the arrangement order of the compensation lines in a set of the touch electrodes in the this embodiment.
In addition, in the present embodiment, the array substrate does not comprise the suspension lines in the first embodiment.
Significantly, each of the embodiments in the specification is described in a progressive manner, and each embodiment focuses on the differences from other embodiments, and the same or similar parts among the various embodiments can be referred to one another. For the embodiment of the device, it is basically similar with the embodiment of method, so the description is simpler, and the related parts can be referred to the description of the embodiment of method.
With the description of the foregoing embodiment, the present invention has advantages below:
Since two ends of each of the wires are electrically connected to one of the touch electrodes and the driving unit, respectively. Therefore, the arrangement of the wires is not the running through type. When the touch electrode acts as a touch, the RC loading is small so that the touch signal is less distorted in transmission and has better touch characteristics; besides, the compensation line overlaps at least one touch electrode, and the compensation line receives a second common voltage as the touch electrode receives the first common voltage, and the first common voltage is equal to the second common voltage. Accordingly, the second common voltage transmitted by the compensation line may enhance the first common voltage on the touch electrode which is overlapped therewith for improving the problem that the first common voltage uniformity of the touch electrodes is poor to further improve the display effect of the screen.
