Disclosed herein are liquid-crystal display (LCD) touch screens that integrate the touch sensing elements with the display circuitry. The integration may take a variety of forms. Touch sensing elements can be completely implemented within the LCD stackup but outside the not between the color filter plate and the array plate. Alternatively, some touch sensing elements can be between the color filter and array plates with other touch sensing elements not between the plates. In another alternative, all touch sensing elements can be between the color filter and array plates. The latter alternative can include both conventional and in-plane-switching (IPS) LCDs. In some forms, one or more display structures can also have a touch sensing function. Techniques for manufacturing and operating such displays, as well as various devices embodying such displays are also disclosed.

An active-matrix LCD causes no cross-talk even if the capacitance between a given cell and adjacent data lines is large. The LCD has a liquid crystal panel which has data lines arranged in parallel with one another, scan lines arranged orthogonally to the data lines, and liquid crystal cells arranged at the intersections of the data and scan lines, respectively. Each of the cells has a cell electrode and a switching device that is arranged between and connected to the cell electrode and a corresponding one of the data lines. The conduction of the switching device is controlled in response to a scan pulse applied to a corresponding one of the scan lines. The LCD also has a data driver for applying data signals to the data lines, respectively, so that the data signals are written to corresponding ones of the cells, and a scan driver for applying the scan pulse sequentially to the scan lines. The data driver applies positive and negative signals that are opposite to each other with respect to a reference level, to each of the data lines within the period of the scan pulse, to zero an effective voltage applied to each data line. As a result, a voltage sustained by any cell to which data has been written is not affected by voltages successively applied to a data line to which the cell is connected and a data line to which the cell is capacitively connected.

In this sensing technique, pMOS charge transfer maintains the bitline level near the GND when the plate line goes high. It gives 0.5-V higher readout voltages across the cell capacitors and enables a 0.4-V higher differential amplitude in a 512-cell per bitline structure compared with the conventional high-impedance bitline sensing technique. Using the shifted bias plate line layout, only eight cells and eight sense amplifiers per cell mat are activated, and simulations show 8.06 mW at 3 V and 5 MHz, which is about the same power consumption as the conventional device.
