Abstract

Provided is a display device including a display panel including an active region and a peripheral region adjacent to the active region, n first touch sensors which are arranged successively along a first direction, extend in a second direction, each include a plurality of first connecting parts and a plurality of first sensor parts connected through the first connecting parts, and each generate an electric field together with an external touch pen; m second touch sensors which are insulated from the n first touch sensors, extend successively along the first direction, are arranged in the second direction, each include a plurality of second connecting parts and a plurality of second sensor parts connected through the second connecting parts, and each generate an electric field together with an external touch pen.

Claims (15)

1. A display device comprising:

a display panel including an active region and a peripheral region adjacent to the active region;

a first touch sensor extending in a first direction and including a plurality of first connecting parts and a plurality of first sensor parts electrically connected through the plurality of first connecting parts;

a second touch sensor extending in a second direction and including a plurality of second connecting parts and a plurality of second sensor parts electrically connected through the plurality of second connecting parts;

an insulating layer disposed between the plurality of first connecting parts and the second connecting part; and

a plurality of signal lines comprising a first signal line connected to the first touch sensor and a second signal line insulated from the first signal line and connected to the second touch sensor,

wherein one of the plurality of first connecting parts overlaps one of the plurality of second connecting parts,

wherein the first signal line is disposed on the same layer as the one of the plurality of first connecting parts and connected to the one of the plurality of first connecting parts not through any one of the plurality of first sensor parts and the plurality of second sensor parts.

2. The display device of claim 1 , wherein the one of the plurality of first connecting parts and the one of the plurality of second connecting parts are disposed in the active region, and the first signal line is disposed in the peripheral region.

3. The display device of claim 2 , wherein the one of the plurality of first connecting parts and the first signal line are directly connected to each other.

4. The display device of claim 3 , wherein the plurality of first sensor parts are connected to the first connecting parts through contact holes formed in the insulating layer.

5. The display device of claim 1 , wherein a side of the one of the plurality of first connecting parts connected to the first signal line, and other side of the one of the plurality of first connecting parts connected to one of the plurality of first sensor parts.

6. The display device of claim 1 , wherein the plurality of second connecting parts are arranged along a boundary line between the active region and the peripheral region.

7. The display device of claim 1 , wherein the plurality of second connecting parts are arranged along a boundary line between the active region and the peripheral region.

8. The display device of claim 7 , wherein the boundary line extends along the second direction.
