Fig. 1 is a schematic top view of an array substrate according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in fig. 1, the array substrate includes a display area AA, a non-display area surrounding the display area, a plurality of first pads 10 located in the non-display area, a plurality of shift register control signal lines 11 located in the non-display area, and a plurality of data signal lines 13 located in the non-display area. One end of each shift register control signal line 11 is electrically connected with a corresponding first bonding pad 10, and the other end is electrically connected with a shift register 12 positioned in the non-display area; one end of each data signal line 13 is electrically connected with a corresponding first bonding pad 10, and the other end is electrically connected with a data line 14 positioned in the display area AA; one end of at least a part of the shift register control signal lines 11 electrically connected to the first pads 10 is located between two adjacent data signal lines 13.

It should be noted that fig. 1 is only exemplary to provide 1 clock signal line, and the number of the clock signal lines 19 is not limited in the embodiment of the present invention.
Fig. 3 is a schematic structural diagram of a multiplexer according to an embodiment of the present invention. Alternatively, in conjunction with fig. 1 and 3, each multiplexer 15 may include a plurality of clock signal terminals, an input terminal and a plurality of output terminals, and fig. 3 exemplarily sets one multiplexer 15 to include three clock signal terminals CKH1, CKH2 and CKH3, one input terminal and three output terminals OUT1, OUT2 and OUT 3.

Illustratively, the output terminal of one multiplexer 15 may be electrically connected to the red, green and blue sub-pixels R, G and B through the data line 14, respectively, and the multiplexer 15 may include three parallel thin film transistors T1, T2 and T3. The multiplexer 15 controls one of the tfts to be turned on according to the clock signal transmitted through the clock signal line 19, and the output terminal corresponding to the turned-on tft transmits a data signal to the data line 14 electrically connected to the output terminal, so as to supply the pixel unit located in the display region to perform normal display.
It should be noted that fig. 3 only exemplarily shows that the multiplexer 15 includes 3 thin film transistors and 3 corresponding clock signal lines and 3 output terminals, and the number of the thin film transistors in the multiplexer 15 may also be adjusted according to actual requirements, which is not limited in the embodiment of the present invention. In addition, fig. 1 and 2 only show one multiplexer by way of example and are indicated by reference numeral 15, and those skilled in the art can understand that the multiplexer 15 in fig. 1 and 2 can indicate a plurality of multiplexers, and the number of multiplexers in the array substrate is not limited by the embodiment of the present invention.
Alternatively, as shown in fig. 1, the first pads 10 (not fully shown in the figure) may be electrically connected to the second pads 17 on the flexible printed circuit 16 in a one-to-one correspondence, and the second pads 17 are electrically connected to the driving chip 20 bound on the flexible printed circuit 16. The second pads 17 may be electrically connected to corresponding pins of the driver chip 20 bound to the flexible wiring board 16 through wires (not shown) provided in the flexible wiring board 16. For example, as shown in fig. 1, the second pad 17 may be pressed on the first pad 10 by an optically conductive adhesive (not shown), that is, a part of the first pad 10 in fig. 1 is covered to achieve electrical connection with the first pad 10. Specifically, the first bonding pads 10 are electrically connected with the second bonding pads 17 arranged on the flexible circuit board 16 in a one-to-one correspondence manner, and the second bonding pads 17 are electrically connected with the driving chip 20 bound on the flexible circuit board 16, so that the driving chip 20 can accurately convey corresponding electric signals to the leads electrically connected with the first bonding pads 10 through the leads in the flexible circuit board 16 electrically connected with the pins of the driving chip 20 in a one-to-one correspondence manner, and the display panel can normally work under the driving of the driving chip 20. In addition, the driving chip 20 is bound on the flexible circuit board 16 to provide signals for the display panel, and due to the bendable characteristic of the flexible circuit board, compared with the situation that the driving chip 20 directly provides signals for the display panel, the space of the frame of the display panel can be saved, so that the frame width of the display panel is reduced, and the realization of a narrow frame is facilitated.
Optionally, fig. 4 is a schematic top view structure diagram of another array substrate according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in fig. 4, the array substrate may further include a visual detection module 21 located in the non-display area and a plurality of switch control signal lines 22, wherein one end of each switch control signal line 22 is electrically connected to the first pad 10, the other end of each switch control signal line 22 is electrically connected to the visual detection module 21, and one end of at least a portion of the switch control signal lines 22 electrically connected to the first pad 10 is located between two adjacent data signal lines 13.

Specifically, referring to fig. 2 and 4, due to the requirement of performing visual detection on the display panel after the display panel is manufactured, a visual detection module 21 and a plurality of switch control signal lines 22 are generally disposed in the non-display area, and the driving chip 20 on the flexible circuit board 16 may transmit the switch control signal to the visual detection module 21 through the switch control signal lines 22, so as to implement the detection function of the visual detection module 21. One end of at least part of the switch control signal line 22 electrically connected with the first pad 10 is arranged between two adjacent data signal lines 13, so that the position where the switch control signal line 22 is connected with the first pad 10 moves towards the direction of the central axis BB 'of the first pad area 101, and more space is reserved in the area of the first pad area 101 far away from the central axis BB' to electrically connect the data signal lines 13 with the first pad 10, thereby reducing the height of the fan-out area formed by the data signal lines 13, greatly increasing the layout space of the data signal lines 13 in the peripheral circuit area of the lower frame of the display panel, reducing the height of the fan-out area corresponding to the data signal lines 13, and being beneficial to realizing the narrowing of the lower frame of the display panel.

For example, some of the touch signal lines 18 and the data signal lines may be arranged alternately, as shown in fig. 1. Specifically, by arranging that at least part of the end of the touch signal line 18 electrically connected with the first pad 10 is located between two adjacent data signal lines 13, the position where the touch signal line 18 is connected with the first pad 10 moves towards the central axis BB 'of the first pad area, so that more space is left in the area of the first pad area away from the central axis BB' to electrically connect the data signal line 13 with the first pad 10, the height of the fan-out area formed by the data signal line 13 is reduced, the layout space of the data signal line 13 in the peripheral circuit area of the lower frame of the display panel is greatly increased, the height of the fan-out area corresponding to the data signal line 13 is reduced, and the narrowing of the lower frame of the display panel is facilitated.
Note that, in order to indicate the difference between the signal lines and avoid misleading, the dotted lines in fig. 1 all indicate the signal lines that actually exist.
