Display Panel and Display Device Including the Same - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18396389 titled 'Display Panel and Display Device Including the Same
The abstract describes a display panel and device where an unused light-emitting element in the bezel area acts as an electrostatic discharge (ESD) circuit.
- The display panel includes pixels in both the active area and the bezel area.
- The unused light-emitting element in the bezel area functions as the ESD circuit.
- The first pixel and second pixel operate at different potentials, utilizing the unused element for ESD protection.
- This innovation enhances the ESD protection of the display device.
Potential Applications: - Display panels in electronic devices - ESD protection in various display technologies
Problems Solved: - Enhanced ESD protection in display devices - Efficient use of unused components for added functionality
Benefits: - Improved reliability of display devices - Cost-effective ESD protection solution
Commercial Applications: Title: "Enhanced ESD Protection in Display Panels" This technology can be utilized in various electronic devices such as smartphones, tablets, and monitors to ensure reliable performance and longevity.
Questions about the technology: 1. How does using an unused light-emitting element for ESD protection benefit the overall functionality of the display device? 2. What potential challenges could arise in implementing this innovation in different types of display panels?
Original Abstract Submitted
Disclosed are a display panel and a display device including the display panel in which an unused light-emitting element disposed in a bezel area is used as an electrostatic discharge (ESD) circuit. The display panel includes at least one first pixel disposed in an active area; and at least one second pixel disposed in the bezel area, wherein the first pixel and the second pixel operate at voltages of different potentials, respectively. Therefore, the unused light-emitting element disposed in the bezel area acts as the electrostatic discharge (ESD) circuit.
