An integrated touch panel has a display pixels arranged in a two-dimensional array of rows and columns connected to a plurality of gate lines and data lines. Each gate line receives a gate line signal for controlling the pixels in a row, and each data lines provides display data to the pixels in a column. The touch panel is connected to a sensing module having a plurality of shift registers connected in series. The touch panel has a plurality of sensor units arranged in sensor rows and sensor columns. Each sensor row receives gate line signals from a gate line, and each sensor column is connected to a sensor signal line for providing a touch signal to a shift register in the sensing module such that the shift registers connected to two adjacent sensor signal lines are separated by a different shift register is the series.

Integrated touch panel and method for making same

A flat display apparatus comprising a shift register array is provided. The shift register array comprises a plurality of shift registers. At least one of these shift registers comprises a shift register unit, a first TFT, and a second TFT. The shift register unit is configured to receive an activation signal and comprises a first output terminal and a second output terminal. The gate of the first TFT is coupled to the first output terminal. The second electrode of the first TFT receives a clock signal. The gate of the second TFT is coupled to the first electrode of the first TFT. The second electrode of the second TFT is coupled to the second electrode of the first TFT. The first electrode of the second TFT is coupled to the second output terminal.
