Abstract

Provided is a touch display device. Because a shielding electrode, which is disposed in a non-active area and electrically coupled between a common electrode and a common voltage supply line, is located between a touch routing line and a signal line, the effects of noise caused by the signal line on the touch routing line may be reduced. Further, an encapsulation portion located on the shielding electrode has a planarized structure. The resulting maintenance of a certain distance between the shielding electrode and the touch routing line may reduce noise caused by the signal line from indirectly affecting the touch routing line through the shielding electrode.

Claims (27)

1. A touch display device, comprising:

a substrate including an active area in which a plurality of subpixels are disposed and a non-active area defined outside the active area;

a plurality of signal lines disposed on the non-active area;

an encapsulation portion disposed on the active area and the plurality of signal lines;

a plurality of touch electrodes disposed on the encapsulation portion;

a plurality of touch routing lines disposed on the non-active area, the plurality of touch routing lines electrically connected to at least one of the plurality of touch electrodes; and

a shielding electrode overlapping the plurality of signal lines and the plurality of touch routing lines between the plurality of signal lines and the plurality of touch routing lines, the shielding electrode supplied with a common voltage.

2. The touch display device of claim 1 , wherein each of the plurality of subpixels comprises a first electrode, a light emitting layer, and a second electrode, wherein the common voltage is applied to the second electrode.

3. The touch display device of claim 2 , wherein the shielding electrode is disposed on a different layer from a layer where the second electrode is disposed.

4. The touch display device of claim 2 , wherein the shielding electrode comprises a first shielding electrode disposed on a same layer as the first electrode.

5. The touch display device of claim 4 , wherein the shielding electrode comprises a second shielding electrode disposed on a different layer from the first shielding electrode between the plurality of signal lines and the plurality of touch routing lines.

6. The touch display device of claim 1 , wherein each of the plurality of touch electrodes is a mesh type, and comprises at least one opening corresponding to a light emitting area of each of the plurality of subpixels.

7. The touch display device of claim 1 , further comprising:

a black matrix on the plurality of touch electrodes; and

a plurality of color filters on the plurality of touch electrodes.

8. The touch display device of claim 1 , wherein the non-active area comprises a second non-active area adjacent to a touch driving circuit, and a first non-active area between the active area and the second non-active area, and

wherein the plurality of signal lines and the plurality of touch routing lines are non-overlapping with each other on the second non-active area, and the shielding electrode is not disposed on the second non-active area.

9. The touch display device of claim 8 , wherein one of the plurality of signal lines and the plurality of touch routing lines is disposed on the second non-active area, and a remaining one of the one of the plurality of signal lines or the plurality of touch routing lines is not disposed on the second non-active area.

10. The touch display device of claim 1 , wherein the non-active area comprises a second non-active area adjacent to a touch driving circuit, and a first non-active area between the active area and the second non-active area, and

wherein the plurality of signal lines and the plurality of touch routing lines are non-overlapping with each other on the first non-active area.

11. The touch display device of claim 1 , wherein the encapsulation portion is between the plurality of signal lines and the plurality of touch routing lines.

12. The touch display device of claim 1 , wherein the shielding electrode is disposed on the non-active area and is under the encapsulation portion.

13. The touch display device of claim 1 , wherein at least one of the plurality of signal lines is disposed on a same layer as a layer where a signal line supplying the common voltage to the shielding electrode is disposed.

14. The touch display device of claim 1 , wherein at least one of the plurality of signal lines is apart from the shielding electrode on a side of the shielding electrode.

15. The touch display device of claim 2 , further comprising:

a bank located on at least a part of the shielding electrode.

16. The touch display device of claim 15 , wherein a portion of the second electrode is disposed on the bank.
