Patent ID: 10401671

Abstract:
A liquid crystal panel capable of sensing a touch includes a TFT substrate 1; a CF substrate 2 arranged so as to be opposed to the TFT substrate 1; a liquid crystal layer 3 interposed between the TFT substrate 1 and the CF substrate 2; touch drive electrodes Tx arranged on a liquid crystal layer 3 side of the CF substrate 2; touch detection electrodes Rx arranged on a side of the CF substrate 2 opposite to the liquid crystal layer 3; a pressing detection electrode Fx arranged on a liquid crystal layer 3 side of the TFT substrate 1; and a control unit that supplies a driving signal to the touch drive electrodes Tx and detects detection signals output from the touch detection electrodes Rx, thereby detecting a touch position, and that detects amounts of change in electrostatic capacitances generated between the touch drive electrodes Tx and the pressing detection electrode Fx, thereby detecting pressing when touched.
