Abstract

A display apparatus which can reduce a parasitic capacitance during driving of driving electrodes based on a self-capacitance detecting method is provided. The display apparatus includes: a plurality of connection wires which are formed in a peripheral area and are connected to a plurality of corresponding video signal lines; a video signal line selection circuit which is connected with a plurality of connection wires, selects at least one connection wire and supplies a signal to the video signal lines; self-capacitance detection wires which extend in a direction intersecting an extension direction of the connection wires and intersects the connection wires; common wires which electrically connect the self-capacitance detection wires and drive electrodes; and transistors which are provided between the self-capacitance detection wires and the common wires. Further, the self-capacitance detection wires extend between a display area and the video signal line selection circuit in a plan view.

Claims (55)
