DISPLAY MODULE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17972202 titled 'DISPLAY MODULE
Simplified Explanation
The present patent application discloses a display module that includes a driving circuit layer and a pixel array. The driving circuit layer consists of first and second driving circuits, while the pixel array contains pixels arranged in a matrix, each comprising multiple inorganic light-emitting devices.
- The first driving circuits are responsible for driving the inorganic light-emitting devices in each pixel based on data voltages received through data lines.
- The second driving circuits generate control signals for the first driving circuits using clock signals received through clock lines and transmit them to the first driving circuits.
- The driving circuit layer is composed of a first metal layer, a second metal layer, and at least one third metal layer.
- The clock signals are applied to the second driving circuits through jumping lines formed in one of the third metal layers.
Potential Applications
- This display module technology can be applied in various electronic devices such as smartphones, tablets, televisions, and computer monitors.
- It can also be used in automotive displays, wearable devices, and other consumer electronics.
Problems Solved
- The disclosed display module addresses the need for efficient driving of inorganic light-emitting devices in pixels.
- It solves the problem of generating control signals for driving circuits using clock signals in a compact and effective manner.
- The use of multiple metal layers in the driving circuit layer allows for better integration and performance of the display module.
Benefits
- The display module provides improved image quality and brightness due to the efficient driving of inorganic light-emitting devices.
- It offers a compact and space-saving design, making it suitable for various electronic devices with limited space.
- The use of multiple metal layers enhances the overall performance and reliability of the display module.
Original Abstract Submitted
A display module is disclosed. The present display module comprises: a driving circuit layer provided on a substrate and comprising first driving circuits and second driving circuits; and a pixel array provided on the driving circuit layer and having pixels arranged in a matrix, the pixels each including a plurality of inorganic light-emitting devices, wherein: the first driving circuits provided for each pixel drive the plurality of inorganic light-emitting devices included in each pixel on the basis of data voltages applied through data lines; the second driving circuits generate control signals for driving the first driving circuits on the basis of clock signals applied through clock lines and provide same to the first driving circuits; the driving circuit layer comprises a first metal layer, a second metal layer, and at least one third metal layer; and the clock signals are applied from the clock lines to the second driving circuits through jumping lines formed in one of the at least one third metal layer.
