DISPLAY DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240304152 titled 'DISPLAY DEVICE
The patent application describes a display device with a circular display area and a non-display area, containing pixels, sub-demux circuits, connection lines, and gate stages.
- The display device includes a circular display area on a substrate.
- Pixels, such as a first pixel and a second pixel, are located on the display area.
- Sub-demux circuits, like a first sub-demux circuit and a second sub-demux circuit, are connected to the pixels and placed on the non-display area.
- Connection lines transfer data input signals to the sub-demux circuits.
- Gate stages, connected to the pixels, transfer gate signals and are situated on the non-display area.
- Some gate stages are positioned between the sub-demux circuits.
Potential Applications: - This technology could be used in circular displays for smartwatches or other wearable devices. - It may also find applications in round screens for automotive displays or gaming devices.
Problems Solved: - The design allows for efficient data transfer and gate signal management in circular display devices. - It optimizes the use of space on the substrate for improved functionality.
Benefits: - Enhanced performance and functionality in circular display devices. - Efficient data processing and signal management. - Space-saving design for compact devices.
Commercial Applications: Circular display technology could revolutionize the smartwatch industry by offering more versatile and visually appealing designs. It could also impact the automotive sector by providing innovative display solutions for dashboards and entertainment systems.
Questions about Circular Display Technology: 1. How does this technology improve the user experience compared to traditional rectangular displays? 2. What are the potential challenges in implementing circular display technology in various devices?
Original Abstract Submitted
a display device may include a substrate including a circular display area and a non-display area, a plurality of pixels including a first pixel and a second pixel disposed on the display area of the substrate, a first sub-demux circuit connected to the first pixel and disposed on the non-display area, a second sub-demux circuit connected to the second pixel and disposed on the non-display area, a first connection line connected to the first sub-demux circuit and the second sub-demux circuit and disposed on the non-display area to transfer first and second data input signals to the first and second sub-demux circuits, and a plurality of gate stages connected to the pixels and disposed on the non-display area to transfer gate signals to the pixels. some of the gate stages are disposed between the first sub-demux circuit and the second sub-demux circuit.
