DISPLAY DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17671969 titled 'DISPLAY DEVICE

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a display device that includes a display panel with pixels connected to scan lines and data lines, and a connection line connected to the scan lines. The device also includes a scan driver that drives the scan lines.

  • The scan driver includes a scan signal output circuit that outputs a first output signal as a scan signal to a first output line and a second output signal to a second output line.
  • A signal distribution circuit is included in the scan driver, which outputs the first output signal to a first or third connection line and the second output signal to a second or fourth connection line based on first and second distribution control signals.
  • A scan-off circuit is also included in the scan driver, which outputs a gate-off level to at least one of the scan lines based on first and second scan-off control signals.

Potential Applications

  • This display device can be used in various electronic devices such as smartphones, tablets, televisions, and computer monitors.
  • It can be applied in augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR) devices to provide high-quality and responsive displays.

Problems Solved

  • The display device solves the problem of efficiently driving the scan lines and distributing the scan signals to the connection lines.
  • It addresses the issue of reducing power consumption by providing a scan-off circuit that can turn off the gate of the scan lines when not in use.

Benefits

  • The display device provides improved display quality and responsiveness due to efficient scan line driving and signal distribution.
  • It helps in reducing power consumption, leading to longer battery life in portable devices.
  • The technology can be implemented in various electronic devices, enhancing their overall performance and user experience.


Original Abstract Submitted

A display device includes a display panel including pixels connected to scan lines and data lines, and connection line connected to the scan lines, and a scan driver which drives scan lines. The scan driver includes a scan signal output circuit which outputs a first output signal as a scan signal to a first output line and outputs a second output signal to a second output line, a signal distribution circuit which outputs the first output signal to a first or third connection line and outputs the second output signal to a second or fourth connection line in response to first and second distribution control signals, and a scan-off circuit which outputs gate-off level to at least one of the scan lines in response to first and second scan-off control signals.
