Abstract

Embodiments of the present disclosure are related to a touch display device, as a portion of a touch routing line is disposed on an area surrounded by a touch electrode line on an active area and is electrically connected to the touch electrode line, the touch routing line can be disposed on the active area while reducing an influence of a noise. Thus, as an additional arrangement of the touch routing line and a free adjustment of a connecting point of the touch routing line become possible without an increase of an area for arranging the touch routing line, a load by the touch routing line and a difference of a sensitivity according to positions of the touch electrode line are reduced and a performance of a touch sensing can be improved.
