The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are illustrative and are only for the purpose of explaining the present application and are not to be construed as limiting the present application.

The following disclosure provides many different embodiments or examples for implementing different features of the application. In order to simplify the disclosure of the present application, specific example components and arrangements are described below. Of course, they are merely examples and are not intended to limit the present application. Moreover, the present application may repeat reference numerals and/or letters in the various examples, such repetition is for the purpose of simplicity and clarity and does not in itself dictate a relationship between the various embodiments and/or configurations discussed. In addition, examples of various specific processes and materials are provided herein, but one of ordinary skill in the art may recognize applications of other processes and/or use of other materials.

Referring to fig. 1, an electronic device 100 is provided in the present disclosure. The electronic device 100 includes a main circuit board 10 and a display module 20.

By way of example, the electronic device 100 may be any of various types of computer system equipment (only one modality shown in FIG. 1 by way of example) that is mobile or portable and that performs wireless communications.

Specifically, the electronic apparatus 100 may be a mobile phone or a smart phone (e.g., an iPhone system (apple) based phone, an Android system (Android) based phone), a portable game device (e.g., an iPhone (apple phone)), a laptop, a Palmtop (PDA), a portable internet appliance, a music player, and a data storage device, other handheld devices, and other devices such as a watch, an in-ear headset, a pendant, a headset, and the like.

The electronic apparatus 100 may also be other wearable devices (e.g., a Head Mounted Display (HMD) such as electronic glasses, electronic clothing, electronic bracelets, electronic necklaces, electronic tattoos, electronic devices, or smartwatches).

The main circuit board 10 integrates the main circuitry of the electronic device 100. The main circuit board 10 may provide a bonding point for bonding components such as the display module 20, processor, memory, etc.

Referring to fig. 2 and 3, the display module 20 includes a liquid crystal display panel 22, a module circuit board 24, a backlight source 26, a conductive element 28, a driving chip 29, and a buffer 30.

Referring to fig. 4, the lcd panel 22 is formed with a conducting circuit 2242. Specifically, the liquid crystal display panel 22 includes a liquid crystal layer 222 and a conductive layer 224 disposed on the liquid crystal layer 222, the conductive layer 224 is formed with a conductive line 2242 and a driving circuit (not shown) for driving the liquid crystal layer 222, and the module circuit board 24 is connected to the conductive layer 224 and electrically connected to the driving circuit.

Thus, the liquid crystal layer 222 is driven to display. Specifically, the driving circuit is used to drive the movement and arrangement of the liquid crystal molecules of the liquid crystal layer 222, thereby causing the liquid crystal display panel 22 to display an image.

It is understood that under normal conditions, the liquid crystal molecules are aligned in order. Upon application of an electric field to the liquid crystal, the arrangement of the liquid crystal molecules is disturbed, and a part of the liquid crystal changes the propagation direction of light. The liquid crystal display panel 22 is generally provided with a polarizing layer 228, and the polarizing layer 228 blocks light in a specific direction, so that the liquid crystal display panel 22 generates a difference of shades of color, thereby displaying an image. In the example of fig. 2, the polarizing layer 228 is disposed on a side of the filter layer 226 facing away from the liquid crystal layer 222. Of course, the polarizing layer 228 may be disposed on the side of the filter layer 226 facing the liquid crystal layer 222. In addition, the polarizing layers 228 may be disposed on opposite sides of the liquid crystal layer 222. The number and specific positions of the polarizing layers 228 are not limited herein.

In the present embodiment, the conductive layer 224 is made of a transparent conductive metal, so as to avoid blocking the light emitted from the backlight 26.

In the embodiment, the number of the conductive layers 224 is three, the first conductive layer 224 is a gate trace for line scanning, and the material is molybdenum (Mo). The second conductive layer 224 is a vertical data transmission trace and is made of a titanium (Ti) -aluminum (Al) -titanium (Ti) composite material. The third conductive layer 224 is a trace of a touch signal, and is made of a titanium (Ti) -aluminum (Al) -titanium (Ti) composite material.

Of course, the material of the second conductive layer 224 may also be a composite material of molybdenum (Mo) -aluminum (Al) -molybdenum (Mo). The material of the third conductive layer 224 may also be a composite material of molybdenum (Mo) -aluminum (Al) -molybdenum (Mo). The specific number of conductive layers 224 and the specific material of conductive layers 224 are not limited herein.

Since the resistance of the second conductive layer 224 is relatively small, which is suitable for long routing, the conductive lines 2242 are preferably disposed on the second conductive layer 224. Of course, the conductive line 2242 may be provided in the third conductive layer 224.

The terms "first" and "second" in the present embodiment are used for descriptive purposes only and are not to be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of technical features indicated. Thus, features defined as "first", "second", may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of the described features. In the description of the present application, "a plurality" means two or more unless specifically limited otherwise.

Further, a conductive line 2242 is provided in an edge portion 2241 of the conductive layer 224, and a driver circuit is provided in a middle portion 2243 of the conductive layer 224. The middle portion 2243 of the conductive layer 224 corresponds to the liquid crystal layer 222, and the edge portions 2241 of the conductive layer 224 protrude from the liquid crystal layer 222. Thus, interference between the driving circuit and the conducting line 2242 is avoided, and normal operation of the driving circuit and the conducting line 2242 is guaranteed.

In addition, the liquid crystal display panel 22 further includes a filter layer 226 covering the liquid crystal layer 222, and the filter layer 226 and the conductive layer 224 are respectively located on opposite sides of the liquid crystal layer 222. In this manner, the liquid crystal display panel 22 is caused to display different colors. Specifically, color modulation of each pixel may be performed by three primary colors of red, green, and blue at the filter layer 226, so that the liquid crystal display panel 22 displays a color image.

In the manufacturing process, a semiconductor film or an isolation film is formed on a glass substrate by a Plasma Enhanced Chemical Vapor Deposition (PECVD) method, and a metal film is formed by a sputtering plating method. Then, the glass substrate on which the thin film is deposited is washed. Next, a photoresist is coated on the glass substrate on which the thin film is deposited, thereby forming a photoresist layer. The photoresist may then be baked for a period of time to volatilize the solvent portion of the photoresist, thereby increasing the adhesion of the photoresist to the glass substrate on which the film is deposited. Then, ultraviolet light can be used for irradiating the surface of the photoresist through the electrode pattern mask plate, so that the irradiated photoresist reacts, and the photoresist is selectively exposed. The exposed portions of the photoresist may then be washed away with a developer and the dissolved photoresist may be washed away. Then, a heating bake is performed to make the unexposed resist adhere more firmly to the glass substrate on which the thin film is deposited. Finally, the film without the photoresist cap can be etched away with an acid etch solution, leaving only the film under the photoresist. Thus, the film covered with the photoresist is preserved, and the conductive layer 224 is formed. In this embodiment mode, the conductive layer 224 may be formed of a Thin Film Transistor (TFT).

It is understood that the electrode pattern mask may be pre-designed according to the conductive lines 2242 and the driving circuit, so that the conductive layer 224 corresponding to the pre-designed electrode pattern mask may be manufactured.

After the conductive layer 224 is formed, a sealing glue may be applied on the conductive layer 224 to form a sealing glue frame, and liquid crystal may be injected into the sealing glue frame, thereby forming the liquid crystal layer 222. It can be understood that the sealant frame can prevent the liquid crystal from flowing out, thereby ensuring the normal operation of the liquid crystal display panel 22.

Finally, an optical filter may be attached to the liquid crystal layer 222 to form the filter layer 226. In the embodiment, the filter layer 226 is a Color Filter (CF). Of course, the filter layer 226 may also be a film layer having a filtering function. The specific form of the filter layer 226 is not limited herein.

The module circuit board 24 is connected to the main circuit board 10. Thereby bonding the display module 20 to the main circuit board 10 so that the electronic device 100 communicates and powers on the display module 20 through the main circuit board 10.

In addition, the module circuit board 24 is connected to the liquid crystal display 22, and the conducting circuit 2242 is electrically connected to the module circuit board 24. The backlight 26 is electrically connected to the conductive line 2242, and is electrically connected to the module circuit board 24 through the conductive line 2242. So, form at liquid crystal display 22 and switch on circuit 2242 to connect backlight 26 and module circuit board 24 through switching on circuit 2242, avoid additionally setting up the switching circuit board and connect backlight 26 and module circuit board 24, simple process, structure are succinct, can save space and reduce cost.

Specifically, the Conductive lines 2242 and the pins of the module circuit board 24 may be connected together in a one-to-one correspondence by Anisotropic Conductive Film (ACF).

In this application, it should be noted that the conducting circuit 2242 may be electrically connected to the module circuit board 24, where the conducting circuit 2242 is directly connected to the module circuit board 24, and the conducting circuit 2242 may also be indirectly connected to the module circuit board 24 through an intermediate medium. The specific meaning of the above terms in the present application can be understood by those of ordinary skill in the art as appropriate.

Specifically, in the present embodiment, the backlight 26 and the module circuit board 24 are disposed on opposite sides of the electronic device 100. If the backlight 26 and the module circuit board 24 are connected by additionally disposing the adapter circuit board according to the related art, the adapter circuit board will pass through a larger portion of the electronic device 100, and thus the electronic device 100 needs to reserve more space to avoid the adapter circuit board.

The conducting line 2242 formed on the lcd 22 is used to connect the backlight source 26 and the module circuit board 24, so that an additional adapter circuit board is not required, the electronic device 100 does not need to reserve more space, and the cost of the adapter circuit board can be reduced.

In addition, the conductive lines 2242 can be manufactured at the same time when the driver circuit is manufactured, and the manufacturing process is simple and easy to implement. Moreover, because the circuit 2242 is formed on the liquid crystal display 22, the liquid crystal display 22 can increase the strength of the circuit 2242, reduce the risk of breakage and damage of the circuit 2242, and improve the reliability of the circuit 2242.

The backlight 26 is disposed on the liquid crystal display panel 22 side. The backlight 26 includes a backlight circuit board 262 and a light emitting portion 264 provided on the backlight circuit board 262.

Specifically, the conductive member 28 is connected to the backlight circuit board 262 and the conducting line 2242. In this manner, the connection between the backlight 26 and the conducting line 2242 can be easily and conveniently realized.

It will be appreciated that the conductive member 28 extends through the lcd panel 22 to connect the backlight 26 and the conducting traces 2242 disposed on opposite sides of the lcd panel 22, such that the backlight circuit board 262 need not extend from one side of the lcd panel 22 and bend over to the other side of the lcd panel 22. Thus, the frame of the electronic device 100 can be reduced while preventing the bending part of the backlight circuit board 262 from being broken and scratched, which is beneficial to the trend of matching with a full screen.

In the present embodiment, the conductive element 28 includes a conductive silver paste. In this manner, the electrical connection of the conductive member 28 to the backlight 26 and the conducting line 2242 can be simply and conveniently achieved. Of course, the conductive element 28 may also be made of conductive glue, conductive paint, conductive metal, or other material. The specific form of the conductive element 28 is not limited herein.

One end of the conductive line 2242 is formed with a pad 2245, the pad 2245 is formed with a second through hole 2247, the second through hole 2247 communicates with the first through hole 2246, and the conductive member 28 is inserted through the first through hole 2246 and the second through hole 2247.

Thus, the penetration of the conductive element 28 through the liquid crystal display panel 22 can be easily accomplished. Specifically, the shape of the first through hole 2246 may be circular, oval, rectangular, triangular, or other shapes. The shape of the second through hole 2247 may be circular, oval, rectangular, triangular or other shapes. The shape of the first through hole 2246 may be the same as or different from that of the second through hole 2247. Specific shapes of the first and second through

holes

2246 and 2247 are not limited herein.

Referring to fig. 6, during the manufacturing process, holes may be punched in the pads 2245 and the lcd panel 22 by using a laser or a Computer Numerical Control (CNC) grinding method, so as to form first through holes 2246 in the lcd panel 22 and second through holes 2247 in the pads 2245. Then, a conductive silver paste may be disposed at the midpoint of the first and second through

holes

2246 and 2247. Finally, the backlight circuit board 262 may be thermocompression bonded to the lower surface of the lcd panel 22, so that the pads 2245 and the backlight circuit board 262 are conducted through the conductive elements 28, and the backlight source 26 and the conducting lines 2242 are electrically connected.

Optionally, referring to fig. 7, an opening 223 is formed on the edge 221 of the liquid crystal display panel 22, the conducting line 2242 extends to the opening 223, and the conductive element 28 is disposed through the opening 223 and connected to the conducting line 2242. In this manner, the conductive element 28 is disposed through the lcd panel 22 and connected to the backlight 26 and the conducting lines 2242.

In the embodiment of the present application, the backlight circuit board 262 is a flexible circuit board. The flexible circuit board has high wiring density, light weight, thin thickness and good bending property, and the flexible circuit board is used as the backlight circuit board 262, so that the weight and the volume of the display module 20 can be reduced.

In the example of FIG. 4, the backlight 26 includes a plurality of LED lamps, which may be connected in series to form three rows. The number of the pads 2245 is 4, one of the pads 2245 is a positive electrode, and the remaining three pads 2245 are negative electrodes. Three rows of LED lamps are all connected with the positive pole of pad 2245, and in addition, three rows of LED lamps are connected with three negative pole respectively, so can realize supplying power for three rows of LED lamps.

Of course, the number of the pads 2245 may be other, and the number of the pads 2245 is not limited herein.

The other end of the conducting line 2242 may be connected to a pin reserved in the module circuit board 24. Further, the other ends of the Conductive lines 2242 and the pins of the module circuit board 24 may be connected together in a one-to-one correspondence by Anisotropic Conductive Film (ACF). In this way, the module circuit board 24 does not need to be provided with pads, and a larger free space can be provided for the traces of the module circuit board 24.

The driving chip 29 is disposed on the module circuit board 24, and the driving chip 29 is used for driving the liquid crystal display 22 to operate. In this manner, the driving of the liquid crystal display panel 22 is realized.

Specifically, the driving chip 29 may integrate components such as resistors, regulators, comparators, and power transistors to drive the liquid crystal display 22 by controlling the driving current. Further, the driving method of the driving chip 29 may be static driving or dynamic driving. The specific driving method of the liquid crystal display panel 22 is not limited herein.

The driving chip 29 can be bound on the module circuit board 24 through the conductive film 291, and the conductive film 291 can be bent along with the module circuit board 24, so that the lower frame of the display module 20 is effectively reduced. Further, the driving chip 29 may be bonded to the module circuit board 24 through a cof (chip On film) process.

The buffer member 30 is disposed between the conductive layer 224 and the backlight circuit board 262, and the buffer member 30 can protect the electronic device 100 from being damaged when the electronic device 100 is subjected to external impact. Specifically, the buffer member 30 may be made of foam, rubber, or other material having a buffering function.

Referring to fig. 8, the display module 20 may further include a frame 11, a light-enhancing layer 12, a diffusion film 14, a light guide plate 16, and a reflective sheet 18.

The frame 11 surrounds the light-intensifying layer 12, the diffusion film 14, the light guide plate 16 and the reflection sheet 18, and the light-intensifying layer 12, the diffusion film 14, the light guide plate 16 and the reflection sheet 18 are all fixedly connected with the frame 11.

Specifically, the frame body 11 may be a rubber frame. More specifically, the frame body 11 may be a light-tight rubber frame. In an actual production process, the light-adding layer 12, the diffusion film 14, the light guide plate 16 and the reflective sheet 18 may be sequentially stacked in a mold, and then glue is dispensed between the stacked light-adding layer 12, diffusion film 14, light guide plate 16 and reflective sheet 18 and the mold, and finally the glue is cured to form the glue frame. The frame 11 may be an iron frame.

The light-intensifying layer 12 includes a light-intensifying region 122 and a first light-transmitting region 124, the light transmittance of the first light-transmitting region 124 is greater than the light transmittance of the light-intensifying region 122, the first light-transmitting region 124 is configured to align with the functional device 300 disposed on the side of the reflector 18 away from the light guide plate 16, so that the light emitted by the functional device 300 is emitted out of the display module 20 through the first light-transmitting region 124, and/or so that the functional device 300 receives the light incident from the outside of the display module 20 and passing through the first light-transmitting region 124. It is understood that the first light-transmitting region 124 is aligned with the functional device 300, and may be an orthographic projection of the first light-transmitting region 124 on the light guide plate 16 to cover an orthographic projection of the functional device 300 on the light guide plate 16.

Thus, the first light-transmitting area 124 is utilized to improve the local light transmittance of the display module 20, so that the functional device 300 can emit light to the outside of the display module 20 and/or receive light from the outside of the display module 20 through the first light-transmitting area 124, thereby ensuring the normal operation of the functional device 300.

When the functional device 300 is a light sensor, the functional device 300 receives light outside the display module 20 through the first light-transmitting area 124 to detect the ambient brightness.

When the functional device 300 is a camera module, the functional device 300 receives light outside the display module 20 through the first light-transmitting area 124 to obtain an external image.

When the functional device 300 is a fingerprint sensor, the functional device 300 emits light to the outside of the display module 20 through the first light-transmitting area 124, and receives light reflected by a finger through the first light-transmitting area 124, so that fingerprint information can be detected.

It is understood that when the number of the functional devices 300 is plural, the number of the corresponding first light-transmitting regions 124 is also plural, and the plural first light-transmitting regions 124 correspond to the plural functional devices 300 one to one.

In addition, referring to fig. 9, 10 and 11, the first light-transmitting region 124 may be at any position of the light-adding layer 12, and the position of the first light-transmitting region 124 is not limited herein.

the second brightness enhancement film 128 includes a first light transmitting region 124, as shown in fig. 15;

the first light enhancement film 126 includes a first light transmitting region 124, the second light enhancement film 128 also includes a first light transmitting region 124, and the first light transmitting region 124 on the first light enhancement film 126 is aligned with the first light transmitting region 124 on the second light enhancement film 128, as shown in fig. 16.

Referring to fig. 17, the light-increasing region 122 may be formed with a through hole 1222, the through hole 1222 is filled with a light-transmitting material to form the first light-transmitting region 124, and the light transmittance of the light-transmitting material is greater than 90%; or the light-increasing region 122 and the first light-transmitting region 124 are integrally formed. As such, the first light-transmitting region 124 is easily formed, and the light transmittance of the first light-transmitting region 124 is made greater than that of the light-increasing region 122.

Note that the light transmittance of the light-transmitting material is greater than that of the light-increasing region 122, the light-transmitting material is, for example, Polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA), and the light-increasing region 122 is, for example, Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET).

Referring to fig. 18, the diffusion film 14 includes a light diffusion region 142 and a second light transmission region 144, the light transmittance of the second light transmission region 144 is greater than that of the light diffusion region 142, the light diffusion region 142 is aligned with the light increasing region 122, and the second light transmission region 144 is aligned with the first light transmission region 124.

In this way, the second light-transmitting region 144 can reduce or even eliminate the loss of light passing through the first light-transmitting region 124 in the diffusion film 14, thereby further increasing the transmittance of light passing through the first light-transmitting region 124.

Similarly, the light diffusion region 142 may also be formed with a through hole filled with a light transmissive material to form the second light transmissive region 144, where the light transmittance of the light transmissive material is greater than 90%; or the light diffusion region 142 and the second light transmission region 144 are integrally formed. And will not be described in detail herein.

Referring to fig. 19 and 20, the light guide plate 16 is formed with light guide points 162 arranged in an array, the light guide plate 16 includes a first light guide portion 164 and a second light guide portion 166, the first light guide portion 164 is aligned with the light increasing region 122, the second light guide portion 166 is aligned with the first light transmitting region 124, and the density of the light guide points 162 located in the second light guide portion 166 is greater than the density of the light guide points 162 located in the first light guide portion 164. Thus, the light guide point 162 can be disposed in a manner of compensating for the visual difference caused by the higher transmittance of the first light-transmitting region 124.

It can be understood that, even though the light transmittance of the first light-transmitting area 124 is higher than that of the light-intensifying area 122, the user easily feels that the first light-transmitting area 124 is darker than the light-intensifying area 122 when viewing due to the absence of the light-intensifying structure of the light-transmitting area 124, so that the user experience is poor. The density of the light guide points 162 of the second light guide portion 166 is greater than that of the light guide points 162 of the first light guide portion 164, so that the light guiding amount of the second light guide portion 166 in the thickness direction of the light guide plate 16 can be increased, and the light output amount of the display module 20 in the area corresponding to the first light transmission area 124 can be increased, thereby compensating the darkening of the first light transmission area 124, and being beneficial to reducing the visual discomfort of a user.

Specifically, the light guide point 162 may be a groove, a protrusion, or a through hole. The cross-section of the light guide point 162 may be triangular, arc-shaped, rectangular, irregular polygonal, etc. The shape of the light guide point 162 is not limited herein.

In addition, the arrangement of the light guide points 162 may be regular or irregular; the light guide plate 16 may include one shape of the light guide points 162, or may include a plurality of shapes of the light guide points 162. The arrangement of the light guide points 162 is not limited herein.

In the example of fig. 20, a plurality of light guide points 162 are formed on the upper surface of the light guide plate 16. In the example of fig. 21, the upper surface and the lower surface of the light guide plate 16 are each formed with a plurality of light guide points 162.

Referring to fig. 20, in a direction a of the first light guide portion 164 toward the second light guide portion 166, the density of the light guide points 162 located in the first light guide portion 164 gradually increases. Alternatively, the density of light guiding points 162 of the second light guiding portion 166 decreases gradually in the direction from the center of the surface of the second light guiding portion 166 facing the diffusion film 14 toward the first light guiding portion 164.

In this way, in a direction a where the first light guide portion 164 faces the second light guide portion 166, the first light guide portion 164 gradually becomes brighter, or in a direction a where the second light guide portion 166 faces the first light guide portion 164, the second light guide portion 166 gradually becomes darker, so that smoothness and transition of the density of the light guide points 162 at a boundary position between the first light guide portion 164 and the second light guide portion 166 are ensured, and abrupt change of the backlight conducted by the light guide plate 16 at the boundary position between the first light guide portion 164 and the second light guide portion 166 is avoided, so that a user is more comfortable in vision, and user experience is improved. For example, when the display module 20 is operated and displays, the display module 20 smoothly transits and changes the brightness displayed from the center to the periphery by taking the area corresponding to the display module 20 and the first light-transmitting area 124 as the center, so as to reduce the display difference of the display module 20.
