The touch screen display device includes not only the touch screen panel, the display panel, the simplified display driver circuit and the smart IC but may further optionally include a controllable power supply that is controlled by the smart IC. The smart IC includes a first logic unit for driving the touch screen panel and a second logic unit for driving the display panel. The display driver circuit is coupled to receive pre-processed display data and a driving synchronization signal from the second logic unit of the smart IC.
