  • Patent number: 10209834
    Abstract: A display with integrated self-capacitance sensors comprises a sensor electrode and a guard layer in the display stack. Touch displays combine internally elements required for the display function and the touch sensing function. In an embodiment, the common voltage layer, VCOM layer, is used as the guard layer and another layer on top of the common voltage layer, for example a color filter layer, is used as the electrode array layer. The functionality of the common voltage layer is alternated between the touch sensing function and the display function. Either function may be used while the other function is disabled.
