Claim:
1. A liquid crystal display having touch function, wherein the liquid crystal display comprises a display module and a touch module, wherein the display module and the touch module share a common electrode, and the display module sequentially executes a plurality of operations of gate drive and gray scale drive in each frame, wherein the plurality of operations of gate drive and gray scale drive respectively correspond to consecutive time periods of the frame, and the touch module executes operations of touch detection as the display module executes a present operation of gate drive and gray scale drive and a voltage of the common electrode is stable, wherein the operations of touch detection are executed respectively within the time periods of the frame to which the plurality of operations of gate drive and gray scale drive correspond; wherein the touch module finishes a present operation of touch detection before the display module executes a next operation of gate drive and gray scale drive such that the present operation of touch detection is executed within the time period corresponding to the present operation of gate drive and gray scale drive and before the next operation of gate drive and gray scale drive; and the display module comprises a gate driver, a data driver, a plurality of gate lines arranged in parallel and a plurality of data lines arranged in parallel and insulated, intersected with the gate lines, and the gate lines and the data lines define a plurality of pixel areas arranged in array, and the display module further comprises a thin-film transistor (TFT) and a pixel electrode located at each pixel area, wherein gates of the TFTs are correspondingly coupled to the gate lines, and sources of the TFTs are correspondingly coupled to the data lines, and drains of the TFTs are correspondingly coupled to the pixel electrodes, and the common electrode and the pixel electrodes are oppositely located, and the gate driver sequentially provides gate drive signals to the gate lines for sequentially activating the TFTs corresponding to the gate lines, and the data driver provides gray scale drive signals to the data lines for applying the gray scale drive signals to the pixel electrodes via the activated TFTs, and the touch module executes the operations of touch detection as the gate driver provides the gate drive signals, and the data driver provides the gray scale drive signals, and the voltage of the common electrode is stable.
