Patent ID: 8902178

Claim:
A mobile terminal comprising: a display; a substrate disposed on the display, the substrate having an active area and an inactive area located along the four edges of the active area, the inactive area comprising a left inactive portion, a right inactive portion, a top inactive portion and a bottom inactive portion; a first electrode pattern array disposed on the active area of the substrate, the first electrode pattern array having a plurality of horizontal touch channels and vertical touch channels for detecting a touch; a second electrode pattern array disposed on the active area of the substrate, the second electrode pattern array having a plurality of horizontal touch channels and vertical touch channels for detecting the touch; a first drive circuit unit disposed on the bottom inactive portion; a second drive circuit unit disposed on the top inactive portion; a plurality of first signal lines disposed on the left inactive portion, the right inactive portion and the bottom inactive portion, the first signal lines respectively extending from an end of each horizontal touch channel of the first electrode pattern array to the first drive circuit unit along a first direction of the substrate; and a plurality of second signal lines disposed on the left inactive portion, the right inactive portion and the top inactive portion, the second signal lines respectively extending from an end of each horizontal touch channel of the second electrode pattern array to the second drive circuit unit along a second direction opposite from the first direction of the substrate, wherein the touch channels are formed in a manner that a plurality of conductors contact each other.
