Abstract:
A touch sensor includes a sensor unit including a plurality of first electrodes in an active area spaced apart from each other, and at least one second electrode, a plurality of sensing channels respectively coupled to one of the first electrodes, and each sensing channel including a reference node having a variable voltage coupled to the at least one second electrode, and a processor configured to receive output signals from the sensing channels, and detect a touch input based on the output signals. The plurality of sensing channels may be configured to supply driving signals to respective first electrodes during a first period, receive sensing signals from respective first electrodes during a second period, and generate the output signals corresponding to the sensing signals received from respective first electrodes based on potentials of the respective reference nodes. A method of driving a touch sensor also is disclosed.

Claim (Index 18):
The method according to  claim 17 , wherein the step of generating the output signals comprises generating output voltages corresponding to differences between the voltages of sensing signals input from respective ones the first electrodes, and the voltages of respective ones of the reference nodes.
