In order to measure the attenuated voltage signal transmitted through the data line 10 and the attenuated voltage signal transmitted through the scan line 20, that is, the voltage signal of the end position of the data line and the voltage signal of the end position of the scan line. According to the technical scheme, the switch control circuit 30 is arranged to control the first switch circuit 60 and the second switch circuit 70 to be opened or closed, the voltage detection circuit 40 is arranged to control the third switch circuit 80 and the fourth switch circuit 90 to be opened or closed, the first switch circuit 60 and the third switch circuit 80 are connected in series, when the first switch circuit 60 and the third switch circuit 80 are opened simultaneously, the conducting strips 50 are conducted with the data lines 10, and at the moment, the voltage signals of the data lines 10 can be measured through the conducting strips 50 arranged on the fan-out area of the display panel. The second switch circuit 70 and the fourth switch circuit 90 are connected in series, when the second switch circuit 70 and the fourth switch circuit 90 are simultaneously turned on, the conductive sheet 50 is conducted with the scan line 20, and at this time, the voltage signal of the scan line 20 can be measured through the conductive sheet 50.

The voltage detection circuit 40 generates a high-level detection signal to the third switch circuit 80 and the fourth switch circuit 90 according to the high-level voltage signal, because the third switch circuit 80 is a high-level conducting switch circuit and the fourth switch circuit 90 is a low-level conducting switch circuit, at this time, the third switch circuit 80 is turned on, and because the first switch circuit 60 and the third switch circuit 80 are both in an open state at this time, the conductive sheet 50 is conducted with the data line 10, and the voltage signal of the data line 10 can be measured through the conductive sheet 50.

By such arrangement, the voltage signals transmitted by the data lines 10 and the scanning lines 20 can be measured without breaking glass, and the method is simple and low in cost.
According to the technical scheme, the conductive sheets 50 are arranged in the fan-out area of the display panel, and are controlled to be conducted with the data line 10 or the scanning line 20 so as to measure the attenuated voltage signals transmitted by the data line 10 or the attenuated voltage signals transmitted by the scanning line 20; with the arrangement, the voltage signal of the data line 10 or the voltage signal of the scanning line 20 can be measured without breaking glass, so that the measurement efficiency is high and the measurement cost is low.

In this embodiment, the flip-flop U1 may be selected as the D flip-flop U1, and the D flip-flop U1 has a characteristic that when the clock signal input terminal C receives a rising edge of a signal, the logic level of the data input terminal D is assigned to the data output terminal Q. In the initial state, the data input terminal D of the D flip-flop U1 is low, and when it is required to measure the voltage signal of the data line 10 or the voltage signal of the scan line 20, a corresponding voltage signal from low to high may be provided by the timing controller or an external circuit. When the clock signal input terminal C of the D flip-flop U1 receives the rising edge of the voltage signal input from the signal input terminal a, the data output terminal Q of the D flip-flop U1 outputs a low-level electrical signal to the inverter U2, and the inverter U2 correspondingly outputs a high-level control signal to the controlled terminals of the first switch circuit 60 and the second switch circuit 70, so as to control the first switch circuit 60 and the second switch circuit 70 to be turned on and enter the measurement state. When the measurement is not needed, a corresponding voltage signal from low to high can be provided to the clock signal input terminal C of the D flip-flop U1 again through the timing controller or the external circuit, since the output terminal of the inverter U2 is at high level at this time, and correspondingly, the data input terminal D of the D flip-flop U1 is at high level, the data output terminal Q of the D flip-flop U1 outputs an electrical signal at high level to the inverter U2, and the inverter U2 correspondingly outputs a control signal at low level to the first switch circuit 60 and the second switch circuit 70, so as to control the first switch circuit 60 and the second switch circuit 70 to be turned off, so that the conductive sheet 50 is disconnected from the data line 10 and the scan line 20, and the system returns to the initial state. The switch control circuit 30 further includes a first resistor R1, and the high-level control signal output by the inverter can be prevented from being pulled low by setting the first resistor R1.

If the voltage signal of the scan line 20 needs to be measured, a timing controller or an external circuit may provide a voltage signal that is changed from low to high and input the voltage signal to the non-inverting input terminal of the first comparator U3, and pull down the input voltage signal, so that the voltage signal at the non-inverting input terminal of the first comparator U3 is smaller than the reference voltage signal Vref at the inverting input terminal, and at this time, the first comparator U3 outputs a low-level detection signal to control the third switch circuit 80 to be turned off and the fourth switch circuit 90 to be turned on.
