DISPLAY PANEL AND DISPLAY DEVICE INCLUDING THE SAME - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240339058 titled 'DISPLAY PANEL AND DISPLAY DEVICE INCLUDING THE SAME

The abstract describes a display panel with a test circuit and an electrostatic discharge protection circuit.

  • The display panel test circuit includes an open-short test transistor with a gate electrode, a first electrode for an open-short test voltage, and a second electrode connected to a data line.
  • The electrostatic discharge protection circuit includes a first electrostatic discharge diode connected to the data line, a first switching element to determine voltages under different conditions, and a second electrostatic discharge diode connected to the data line.

Potential Applications: - This technology can be used in various display panels to ensure proper functioning and protection against electrostatic discharge.

Problems Solved: - Ensures the display panel operates correctly under different conditions. - Protects the display panel from damage due to electrostatic discharge.

Benefits: - Improved reliability and longevity of display panels. - Enhanced protection against electrostatic discharge events.

Commercial Applications: - Display panel manufacturers can integrate this technology to enhance the performance and durability of their products, appealing to consumers looking for reliable displays.

Questions about the technology: 1. How does the first switching element determine voltages under different conditions?

  - The first switching element adjusts the voltage based on the specific condition to ensure proper operation of the display panel.

2. What are the specific benefits of the electrostatic discharge protection circuit in a display panel?

  - The protection circuit safeguards the display panel from potential damage caused by electrostatic discharge events, ensuring its longevity and reliability.


Original Abstract Submitted

a display panel includes a display panel test circuit including an open-short test transistor including a gate electrode which receives a test gate signal, a first electrode which receives an open-short test voltage, and a second electrode connected to a data line which transmits a data voltage and an electrostatic discharge protection circuit including: a first electrostatic discharge diode including a cathode electrode connected to the data line and an anode electrode which receives a first voltage; a first switching element which determines a minimum voltage of the display panel as the first voltage under a first condition and determines an electrostatic discharge low potential voltage higher than the minimum voltage of the display panel as the first voltage under a second condition; and a second electrostatic discharge diode including a cathode electrode which receives a second voltage and an anode electrode connected to the data line.
