The invention discloses an array substrate and a display panel. The array substrate comprises a plurality of
data lines, a plurality of scanning lines and touch electrodes. At least one subpixel unit is defined by the
data lines and the scanning lines. The touch electrodes include driving electrodes and sensing electrodes, wherein the driving electrodes and the sensing electrodes are arranged in a mutual crossing mode. In the touch control stage, at least one touch
electrode is communicated through the
data lines so that driving signals or sensing signals can be transmitted to the communicated touch electrodes through the data lines. According to the array substrate, due to the fact that the data lines and at least one touch
electrode are communicated in the touch control stage, the data lines further serve as
signal lines for transmission of touch
electrode signals, the number of the touch electrode
signal lines in a non-display region of the display panel is reduced, the area, occupied by the touch electrode
signal lines on the array substrate, of the non-display region is reduced, and the purpose of a narrow frame of the display panel is achieved.
