Fig. 1 is a schematic top view illustrating an array substrate according to a first embodiment of the present invention. Fig. 2 is an enlarged schematic view of the area a in fig. 1 according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in fig. 1 and 2, an array substrate 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a transparent region 10, a frame region 20, and a display region 30. A border region 20 is disposed around the light-transmissive region. The display area 30 is disposed around the rim area 20.
Illustratively, the light-transmissive region 10 may be an open region or a grooved region for placing the photosensitive element. The photosensitive component can be an image acquisition device and is used for acquiring external image information. For example, the photosensitive component is a camera. The photosensitive component may not be limited to an image capture device, for example, in some embodiments, the photosensitive component may also be an infrared sensor, a proximity sensor, an infrared lens, a floodlight sensing element, an ambient light sensor, a dot matrix projector, and the like.
The light-transmitting area 10 may be a circular area, an elliptical area, a square area, or the like, and the shape of the light-transmitting area 10 may be set according to actual requirements, which is not limited in the present invention.

The pixel circuit 31 is used to drive the sub-pixel to emit light for display. The signal lines extend along a first direction X, and in the first direction X, the signal lines are divided into a first signal line group 33L and a second signal line group 33R located at two sides of the light-transmitting region 10. The first signal line group 33L includes one or more first signal lines 331, and the second signal line group 33R includes one or more second signal lines 332. Illustratively, the number of the first signal lines 331 is equal to the number of the second signal lines 332, for example, the number of the first signal lines 331 and the number of the second signal lines 332 are both N, N is a positive integer, and N first signal lines 331 and N second signal lines 332 are arranged at intervals in the second direction Y. Wherein the first direction X intersects the second direction Y. The first direction X and the second direction Y may be perpendicular.
The border area 20 is provided with a global connection line 21 extending around the light-transmitting area 10. The bus connection line 21 may be provided in a ladder type according to the arrangement of the pixel circuits 31 to further reduce the occupied area of the frame region 20.
The one or more first signal lines 331 are electrically connected to the bus connection line 21, and the one or more second signal lines 332 are electrically connected to the bus connection line 21. The frame area 20 is only provided with one bus connection line 21, and compared with the case where a plurality of connection lines are provided to connect the corresponding first signal lines 331 and the second signal lines 332, the number of the connection lines can be reduced, so that the occupied area of the frame area 20 is reduced, and the narrow frame design is realized.
Further, at least a part of the one or more first signal lines 331 and the one or more second signal lines 332 is electrically connected to the bus connection line 21 through the switching device 32.
According to the embodiment of the invention, the connection of the corresponding first signal line 331 and/or the second signal line 332 can be controlled by controlling the on and off of the switching device 32, and the mutual influence between the signal lines can be avoided.
Illustratively, herein, the first signal line 331 and the second signal line 332 may be a reference voltage (Vref) signal line, and may also be a power supply voltage (Vdd) signal line.
For example, the switching device 32 may receive a control signal and perform an on or off action in response to the received control signal. For example, when the switching device 32 is turned on, the corresponding first signal line 331 and/or second signal line 332 and the bus connection line 21 are electrically connected, and when the switching device 32 is turned off, the corresponding first signal line 331 and/or second signal line 332 and the bus connection line 21 are not electrically connected.
In some embodiments, switching device 32 may comprise a thin film transistor. As shown in fig. 2, each switching device 32 may be a thin film transistor. The thin film transistor includes a source electrode, a drain electrode, and a gate electrode, the gate electrode may receive a control signal, the source electrode and the drain electrode are turned on, and the corresponding first signal line 331 and/or the second signal line 332 are turned on with the bus connection line 21. Illustratively, the pixel circuit 31 includes a plurality of thin film transistors, and the thin film transistors connecting the first signal line 331 and/or the second signal line 332 with the bus connection line 21 and the thin film transistors in the pixel circuit 31 may be formed simultaneously in the same process step. I.e., the switching device 32 is a thin film transistor, the process steps can be simplified.
In some embodiments, for example, as shown in fig. 1 and fig. 2, the light-transmitting region 10 is located approximately in the middle region of the array substrate 100 in the first direction X, and each of the first signal lines 331 may be electrically connected to the bus connection line 21 through one switching device 32, and each of the second signal lines 332 may be electrically connected to the bus connection line 21 through one switching device 32. When the switching device 32 is a thin film transistor, the thin film transistor includes a first thin film transistor 321 and a second thin film transistor 322, the first signal line 331 is electrically connected to the bus connection line 21 through the first thin film transistor 321, and the second signal line 332 is electrically connected to the bus connection line 21 through the second thin film transistor 322. So set up, guarantee that every signal line can both be controlled alone, further reduce the influence each other between the signal line.
In some embodiments, as shown in fig. 2, a first terminal of the first thin film transistor 321 is electrically connected to the first signal line, a second terminal of the first thin film transistor 321 is electrically connected to the bus line, and a control terminal of the first thin film transistor 321 is electrically connected to the scan line 34 disposed in the same row as the first signal line 331.
Illustratively, N rows of pixel circuits 31 are disposed on the left and right sides of the light-transmitting region 10, respectively, and correspondingly, the number of the first thin film transistors 321 and the number of the second thin film transistors 322 are N, the number of the first signal lines 331 is N, and the N rows of pixel circuits 31 correspond to N scan lines. A first terminal of the ith first thin film transistor 321 in the second direction Y is electrically connected to the ith first signal line 331 in the second direction Y, a second terminal of the first thin film transistor 321 is electrically connected to the bus connection line 21, and a control terminal of the first thin film transistor 321 is electrically connected to the ith scan line 34 in the second direction Y.
Referring to fig. 2, a first end of the second thin film transistor 322 is electrically connected to the second signal line 332, a second end of the second thin film transistor 322 is electrically connected to the bus connection line 21, and a control end of the second thin film transistor 322 is electrically connected to the scan line 34 disposed in the same row as the second signal line 332. A first terminal of the ith second thin film transistor 322 in the second direction Y is electrically connected to the ith second signal line 332 in the second direction Y, a second terminal of the second thin film transistor 322 is electrically connected to the bus connection line 21, and a control terminal of the second thin film transistor 322 is electrically connected to the ith scan line 34 in the second direction Y.
In the above example, the first terminal of the first thin film transistor 321 may be a source, and the second terminal of the first thin film transistor 321 may be a drain. The first terminal of the second thin film transistor 322 may be a drain, and the second terminal of the second thin film transistor 322 may be a source. The control terminal of the first thin film transistor 321 and the control terminal of the second thin film transistor 322 are both gates.
The gates of the tfts are electrically connected to the scan lines 34 in the corresponding row, and the first tft 321 and the second tft 322 can be controlled to be turned on by the scan signals provided by the scan lines 34. For example, when the ith scan line 34 scans the ith row, the ith first thin film transistor 321 and the ith second thin film transistor 322 are turned on, and the first signal line 331 and the second signal line 332 in the ith row are connected; when the (i + 1) th scanning line 34 scans the (i + 1) th row, the (i + 1) th first thin film transistor 321 and the second thin film transistor 322 are turned on, and the first signal line 331 and the second signal line 332 in the (i + 1) th row are communicated; in this way, when only the scan line 34 of the row scans the row, the first tft 321 and the second tft 322 of the row are turned on by the scan line 34, and the first signal line 331 and the second signal line 332 are connected to the bus 21 and provide signals to the pixel circuits 31 of the row. With this arrangement, the first signal line 331 and the second signal line 332 are disconnected from each other without being affected.
Herein, in order to clearly show the connection relationship among the first thin film transistor 321, the second thin film transistor 322, the first signal line 331, the second signal line 332, and the bus connection line 21, the scanning lines 34 corresponding to the light-transmitting region 10 in the first direction X are broken, and actually, the scanning lines 34 on two sides of the light-transmitting region 10 corresponding to the first direction X are electrically connected through the plurality of winding lines located in the frame region 20. In addition, the third signal lines 35 are located on both sides of the frame area 20 in the second direction Y. The third signal line 35 need not bypass the light transmission region 10, and the third signal line 35 extends from one edge to the other edge of the display region 30 in the first direction X. Similarly, the scan lines 34 on both sides of the frame region 20 in the second direction Y do not need to bypass the light-transmitting region 10, and the scan lines 34 extend from one edge of the display region 30 to the other edge in the first direction X.
In some embodiments, the display area 30 has two opposite edges in the first direction X, one of the two edges is a first edge S, and the light-transmitting area 10 and the frame area 20 are disposed near the first edge S of the display area 30. The first edge S may be a left edge or a right edge of the display area 30 in the first direction X. The signal line far from the first edge S of the first signal line 331 and the second signal line 332 is electrically connected to the bus connection line 21 through the thin film transistor, one signal line of the signal lines near the first edge S of the first signal line 331 and the second signal line 332 is directly electrically connected to the bus connection line 21, and the other signal lines extend to the edge of the frame area 20. Compared with the case that the first signal line 331 and the second signal line 332 are electrically connected with the bus connection line 21 through the thin film transistor, one of the first signal line 331 and the second signal line 332 is electrically connected with the bus connection line 21 through the thin film transistor, the mutual disconnection of the first signal line 331 and the second signal line 332 is realized without influence, and meanwhile, the resistance difference caused by the thin film transistor can be reduced, so that the display uniformity is improved.
In some embodiments, as shown in fig. 3 and 4, in the first direction X, the light-transmitting area 10 and the frame area 20 are close to the left edge of the display area 30, i.e., the first edge S is the left edge of the display area 30. At this time, the first signal line 331 is close to the first edge S, any one of the outermost first signal lines 331 in the second direction Y is directly electrically connected to the bus connection line 21, and the other first signal lines 331 extend to the edge of the frame region 20. The second signal line 332 is electrically connected to the bus connection line 21 through the second thin film transistor 322.
Illustratively, as shown in fig. 4, the transparent region 10 is a circular region, and the transparent region 10 is disposed near a first edge of the display region 30. N first signal lines 331 are disposed in the second direction Y, the two outermost first signal lines 331 in the second direction Y are the first and nth, respectively, any one of the two outermost first signal lines 331 may be directly electrically connected to the bus connection line 21, and the other first signal lines 331 are not electrically connected to the bus connection line 21. Further, the first signal line 331 may be electrically connected to a first driving circuit, and the second signal line 332 may be electrically connected to a second driving circuit. The second signal line 332 is electrically connected to the bus connection line 21 through a thin film transistor, and any one of the first signal lines 331 at the outermost side in the second direction Y is directly electrically connected to the bus connection line 21, that is, the second signal lines 332 are electrically connected to the first signal lines 331, that is, the second signal lines 332 are driven bilaterally. In the plurality of first signal lines 331, the other first signal lines 331 except for the one directly electrically connected to the bus connection line 21 have relatively short routing, and the driving load is small, and single-side driving is adopted.
In some embodiments, as shown in fig. 5 and 6, in the first direction X, the light-transmitting area 10 and the frame area 20 are close to the right edge of the display area 30, i.e., the first edge S is the right edge of the display area 30. The second signal lines 332 are disposed near the first edge S, N second signal lines 332 are disposed in the second direction Y, any one of the second signal lines 332 outermost in the second direction Y is directly electrically connected to the bus connection line 21, and the other second signal lines 332 extend to the edge of the frame region 20. For example, the first or nth second signal line 332 in the second direction Y is directly electrically connected to the bus connection line 21. The first signal line 331 is electrically connected to the bus connection line 21 through the first thin film transistor 321.
Illustratively, the transparent region 10 is a circular region, and the transparent region 10 is disposed near a second edge of the display region 30. In the plurality of second signal lines 332 corresponding to the transparent region 10, any one of the two outermost second signal lines 332 may be selected to be directly electrically connected to the bus connection line 21, and the other second signal lines 332 may not be electrically connected to the bus connection line 21. Further, the first signal line 331 may be electrically connected to a first driving circuit, and the second signal line 332 may be electrically connected to a second driving circuit. The first signal line 331 is electrically connected to the bus connection line 21 through a thin film transistor, and any one of the second signal lines 332 at the outermost side in the second direction Y is directly electrically connected to the bus connection line 21, that is, the first signal line 331 is electrically connected to the second signal line 332, that is, the first signal line 331 is driven bilaterally. In the plurality of second signal lines 332, the other second signal lines 332 except for the one signal line directly electrically connected to the bus connection line 21 have relatively short routing, and the driving load is small, and single-side driving is adopted.
In the above example, the first driving circuit and the second driving circuit are located in the non-display area NA. In some embodiments, the first driving circuit and the second driving circuit may be located on left and right sides of the array substrate 100 in the first direction X. In other embodiments, the first driving circuit and the second driving circuit may also be located on the left and right sides of the array substrate 100 in the first direction X, for example, the first driving circuit and the second driving circuit are located on the lower edge of the array substrate 100.
According to the embodiment of the invention, one of the first signal line 331 and the second signal line 332 is selected to be electrically connected to the bus connection line 21 through the thin film transistor based on different positions of the light-transmitting area 10, so that the first signal line 331 and the second signal line 332 are disconnected from each other without influence, and meanwhile, the resistance difference caused by the thin film transistor can be reduced, thereby improving the display uniformity.
In some embodiments, the pixel circuit 31 includes a plurality of thin film transistors. The pixel circuit 31 may be any one of a 7T1C circuit, a 7T2C circuit, or a 9T1C circuit, for example. Herein, the "7T 1C circuit" refers to a pixel circuit including 7 thin film transistors (T) and 1 capacitor (C) in the pixel circuit, and the other "7T 2C circuit", "9T 1C circuit", and the like are analogized. The type of the thin film transistor electrically connecting the bus connection line 21 and the first signal line 331 and/or the second signal line 332 is set to be the same as the type of the thin film transistor in the pixel circuit 31. For example, the types of the first thin film transistor 321, the second thin film transistor 322, and the thin film transistors in the pixel circuit 31 are all P-type thin film transistors or all N-type thin film transistors.
With this arrangement, the first signal line 331 and the second signal line 332 are disconnected from each other without being affected by the disconnection, and the process steps are simplified.
