DISPLAY APPARATUS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240321207 titled 'DISPLAY APPARATUS
The abstract describes a display apparatus with multiple display areas and a non-display area, along with connection pixel circuits and a driver circuit.
- The display apparatus includes a substrate with distinct display areas and a non-display area.
- It features connection pixel circuits in the first and second display areas, along with a driver circuit in the third display area.
- A signal connection line connects the connection pixel circuits and extends through the third display area.
- An inorganic insulating layer with a groove separates the driver circuit from the connection pixel circuits.
Potential Applications: - This technology could be used in various display devices such as smartphones, tablets, and monitors. - It may find applications in automotive displays, wearable technology, and augmented reality devices.
Problems Solved: - The display apparatus allows for efficient signal transmission between different display areas. - The inorganic insulating layer helps prevent interference between the driver circuit and the connection pixel circuits.
Benefits: - Improved display performance and reliability. - Enhanced design flexibility for display manufacturers. - Potential cost savings in production processes.
Commercial Applications: Title: Advanced Display Technology for Enhanced Visual Experiences This technology could be valuable for consumer electronics companies looking to improve the quality and functionality of their display products. It may also attract interest from manufacturers in the automotive and wearable technology industries.
Questions about the technology: 1. How does the inorganic insulating layer contribute to the overall performance of the display apparatus? 2. What are the potential challenges in implementing this technology in mass-produced display devices?
Original Abstract Submitted
a display apparatus includes: a substrate having a first display area, a second display area, a third display area between the first display area and the second display area, and a non-display area; a first connection pixel circuit in the first display area; a second connection pixel circuit in the second display area; a driver circuit in the third display area; a signal connection line connected to a first contact portion of the first connection pixel circuit and a second contact portion of the second connection pixel circuit and extending in a first direction to pass the third display area; and an inorganic insulating layer comprising a first groove between the driver circuit and at least any one of the first contact portion and the second contact portion, the first groove extending in a second direction and crossing the signal connection line in a plan view.
