However, as the size of the display panel increases, the number of conductive lines 190 increases due to the increase in the number of light-emitting units. In addition, in order to match the arrangement of the light-emitting units, the area of the printed circuit board 110 is significantly increased. Will result in high production costs. In addition, if the printed circuit board 110 with the current collecting unit m 201250660 and the DC/DC converter 112 occupies too much space on the second board surface of the back board 101, the setting space of the circuit board with other functional units is limited, resulting in Inconvenient design.

The first circuit board has at least one current collecting unit, and each current collecting unit is electrically connected to the corresponding light emitting unit. The second circuit board has a DC/DC converter electrically coupled to the at least one current sink unit. [Embodiment] Hereinafter, the display device and the backlight module thereof according to the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings, but the embodiments provided are not intended to cover the scope of the present invention. FIG. 2 is a schematic diagram showing the basic structure of the display device of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 2, the display device 200 includes a display panel 210 and a backlight module 230. The display panel 210 has a pixel array 215, and the backlight module 230 is used to provide a backlight to match the pixel array 215. . 3 and 4 are respectively a plan view and a bottom view of the first embodiment of the backlight module 230 of Fig. 2, and Fig. 5 is a cross-sectional view taken along line A-A of Fig. 4; As shown in the third to fifth embodiments, the backlight module 230_1 includes a back plate 240, at least one first light emitting unit 251, at least one first conductive line 291, a first circuit board 260, a second circuit board 270, and a second conductive line. 292, and a fourth circuit board 275. The back plate 240 has a first plate surface 241 facing the display panel 210 of Fig. 2 and a second plate surface 242 opposite to the first plate surface 241. At least one first light emitting unit 251 is disposed on the first plate surface 241 of the back plate 240. The first circuit board 260, the second circuit board 270, and the fourth circuit board 275 are disposed on the second board surface 242 of the back board 240. The circuit board can be, for example, a printed circuit board (PCB) or a flexible printed circuit board. (Fiexibie Printed Circuit Board, FPCB). The first circuit board 260 has at least one first current collecting unit 261, and each of the first current collecting units 261 is electrically connected to the corresponding first light emitting unit 251 through the corresponding first conductive line 291. In the embodiment shown in FIGS. 3~5, the back plate 24A has at least one first opening 245, and each of the first conductive lines 291 passes through the corresponding first opening 245 to connect the corresponding first light emitting unit 251 with The first circuit board 260. In another embodiment, the back plate 240 may omit the first opening 245, and each of the first conductive lines 291 bypasses the side edge of the back plate 240 adjacent to the first circuit board 260 to connect the corresponding first light emitting unit 251 and the first A circuit board 260. The second circuit board 270 has a first DC/DC converter 271 electrically connected to the at least one first current collecting unit 261, and the first DC/DC converter 271 is configured to convert the DC voltage to be suitable for driving the first The current sinking unit 261 and another DC voltage of the first 6 201250660 lighting unit 251. The second conductive line 292 is used to connect the first circuit board 260 to the second circuit board 270 to electrically connect the at least one first current sink unit 26i to the first DC/DC converter 271. The fourth circuit board 275 has a power supply 276 electrically connected to the first DC/DC converter 271. Note that the power supply 276 is not limited to the power supply of the first DC/DC converter 271, but may also supply other electronic components of the display device 200 of Fig. 2. Since each of the first current sinking units 261 has only a simple circuit, the first circuit board 260 can be disposed in a relatively small circuit board space and matched with the arrangement of the at least one first current collecting unit 261. The second plate surface 242 of 240 can occupy only a narrow edge area. The first DC/DC converter 271 of the second circuit board 270 can be electrically connected to the first circuit board 260 through the second conductive line 292, and then transmit power to each of the first through the conductive traces on the first circuit board 260. Current sink unit 261. In addition, the second circuit board 270 basically only needs to provide the area required to lay out the circuit of the first DC/DC converter 271, so that the length/width of the second circuit board 270 can be significantly smaller than the length/width of the back board 24?. The circuit board area required for the at least the first current sinking unit 261 and the first DC/DC converter 271 disposed on the second board surface 242 of the backplane 240 can be significantly smaller than the above-mentioned driver circuit board. 11〇 area. In other words, the architecture of the backlight module 2MJ of the present invention avoids the prior art of the current sink unit 111 and the DC/DC converter 112. The circuit board 11 is placed on the same printed circuit board, which significantly wastes the board area, thereby reducing the production cost, and saving the space of the second board surface 242 to facilitate the setting of the circuit board with other functional units (for example, the t source supply 276) Fourth circuit board 275). Fig. 6 and Fig. 7 are respectively a top view and a bottom view of the second embodiment of the backlight module 2 of Fig. 2. As shown in FIG. 6 and FIG. 7, the backlight module 23G_2 includes a back 201250660 board 340, at least one first light emitting unit 251, at least one second light emitting unit 252, at least one first conductive line 29, and at least one third conductive A line 293, a first circuit board 26, a second circuit board 270, a third circuit board 280, a second conductive line 292, a fourth conductive line 294, and a fourth circuit board 275. The back plate 340 has a first plate surface 341 facing the display panel 210 of FIG. 2 and a second plate surface 342 opposite to the first plate surface 341. The at least one first light emitting unit 251 and the at least one second light emitting unit 252 are The first board surface 34 disposed on the back board 340, the first circuit board 260, the second circuit board 27, the third circuit board 280, and the fourth circuit board 275 are disposed on the second board surface 342 of the back board 340. The light module 230-2 is substantially similar to the backlight module 230-1 shown in FIGS. 3~5. The main difference is that the second light emitting unit 252, at least the third conductive line 293, and the third circuit are further included. Plate 280 and fourth conductive line 294. The third circuit board 280 has at least one first current collecting unit 281, and each of the second current collecting units 281 is electrically connected to the corresponding second lighting unit 252 through the corresponding third conductive line 293.
