Abstract: An input sensing device includes: sensor pixels, a horizontal driver, a selection circuit, and a vertical driver. Each of the sensor pixels is connected to a plurality of driving lines and a one of a plurality of signal input lines. The horizontal driver sequentially applies a horizontal driving signal to the sensor pixels through the driving lines.
