Abstract

An embodiment is directed to a touch screen panel including first sensing electrodes, second sensing electrodes, and a pad unit to be electrically connected to the first sensing electrodes and the second sensing electrodes, the touch screen panel including first trace lines connecting the first sensing electrodes and the pad unit, second trace lines connecting the second sensing electrodes and the pad unit, and a ground line connected to a ground power supply, the ground line being between the first trace lines and the second trace lines.

Claims (12)

1. A touch screen panel including first sensing electrodes, second sensing electrodes, and a pad unit electrically connected to the first sensing electrodes and the second sensing electrodes, the touch screen panel comprising:

first trace lines connecting the first sensing electrodes and the pad unit;

second trace lines connecting the second sensing electrodes and the pad unit; and

a ground line to be connected to a ground power supply, the ground line being between the first trace lines and the second trace lines, wherein:

the first trace lines include a first first trace line having a first step part formed in a first direction parallel to an arrangement direction of the first sensing electrodes and moving away from a first second trace line, the first second trace line being a second trace line closest to the first first trace line at the first step part, the first step part increasing a distance between the first first trace line and the first second trace line by a first amount in the first direction, and

the ground line includes a second step part corresponding to the first step part, the second step part widening the ground line by the first amount in the first direction.

2. The touch screen panel as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the first trace lines are between the first sensing electrodes and the ground line.

3. The touch screen panel as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the first trace lines include the first step part, and a difference between a number of the first step part of adjacent first trace lines is one.

4. The touch screen panel as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the first sensing electrodes and the second sensing electrodes cross each other.

5. The touch screen panel as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the ground line is connected to the pad unit, and the ground power supply is supplied to the pad unit.

6. The touch screen panel as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the ground line is a same material as a trace line.

7. The touch screen panel as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the second trace lines are spaced by a predetermined distance from the ground line.
