Abstract

In a touch display device, a controller generates a touch sync signal for controlling timing of a touch sensing period and a display period in each of a plurality of frames. A touch panel has a plurality of touch electrodes in a display area to generate touch sensing signals indicating whether or not a touch occurs during the touch sensing period. A touch sensing circuit supplies a touch drive signal to the plurality of touch electrodes during the touch sensing period and detects if the touch occurred based on the touch sensing signals received from the plurality of touch electrodes. A touch assistance line surrounds the display area and is disposed in the non-display area of the touch panel. A touch assistance signal supply circuit generates a touch assistance signal on the touch assistance line. The touch assistance signal mimics the touch drive signal during the touch sensing period.
