Patent ID: 8823673

Claim:
A method of driving a display apparatus comprising a first sensor and a second sensor commonly connected to an output terminal, wherein each of the first sensor and the second sensor senses at least one of at least two external signals different from each other and outputs a sensing signal through the output terminal, the method comprising: applying a scan signal to charge a capacitor with a first voltage; charging the capacitor with a second voltage in response to a current signal corresponding to the at least two external signals sensed by at least one of the first sensor and the second sensor commonly connected to the output terminal after applying the scan signal, wherein a level of the second voltage is greater than a level of the first voltage; outputting the sensing signal through a switching device and the output terminal in response to the second voltage; generating position information based on the sensing signal, wherein the position information is corresponding to a position at which the at least two external signals are sensed; and processing an event corresponding to the position information and displaying a processed result on a display panel.
