顯示面板及其訊號傳輸方法Display panel and signal transmission method thereof

本發明是有關於一種平面顯示技術,且特別是有關於一種在液晶顯示面板之玻璃基板上所直接配置的多個閘極驅動晶片間的電源走線與其訊號傳輸方法。The present invention relates to a flat display technology, and more particularly to a power trace and a signal transmission method between a plurality of gate drive wafers disposed directly on a glass substrate of a liquid crystal display panel.

隨著光電與半導體技術的演進,其亦帶動了平面顯示器之蓬勃發展,而在諸多平面顯示器中,液晶顯示器(liquid crystal display,LCD)因具有高空間利用效率、低消耗功率、無輻射以及低電磁干擾等優越特性,隨即已成為市場之主流。With the evolution of optoelectronics and semiconductor technology, it has also driven the development of flat panel displays. Among many flat panel displays, liquid crystal displays (LCDs) have high space utilization efficiency, low power consumption, no radiation, and low Superior characteristics such as electromagnetic interference have become the mainstream of the market.

近年來,為了要能有效地控制液晶顯示器的製作成本,已有部份面板業者採用晶粒-玻璃接合製程(chip on glass,COG),而將多個閘極驅動晶片(gate drive chip)直接配置在面板(panel)之玻璃基板(glass substrate)上之一側,藉此方式來壓低液晶顯示器的製作成本。In recent years, in order to effectively control the manufacturing cost of a liquid crystal display, some panel manufacturers have adopted a chip-on-glass (COG) process, and directly connected a plurality of gate drive chips. It is disposed on one side of a glass substrate of a panel, thereby suppressing the manufacturing cost of the liquid crystal display.

圖1繪示為習知多個閘極驅動晶片101a~101n直接配置在液晶顯示面板100之玻璃基板上的佈局(layout)示意圖。請參照圖1,每一個閘極驅動晶片101a~101n皆具有多個電源接收銲墊(亦即圖1之黑方框),用以接收控制板(control board)所產生的多組系統電壓(例如:閘極驅動開啟電壓VGH 、閘極驅動關閉電壓VGL 以及邏輯操作電壓VDDA 等),並且受控於控制板上之控制晶片(一般為時序控制器),藉以來依序開啟顯示單元103內之每一 條掃描線的畫素。FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram showing a layout of a plurality of gate drive wafers 101a to 101n disposed directly on a glass substrate of a liquid crystal display panel 100. Referring to FIG. 1, each of the gate driving chips 101a-101n has a plurality of power receiving pads (ie, black squares in FIG. 1) for receiving a plurality of sets of system voltages generated by a control board ( For example: gate drive turn-on voltage V GH , gate drive turn-off voltage V GL and logic operating voltage V DDA, etc., and controlled by the control chip on the control board (generally the timing controller), and then sequentially display The pixels of each scan line within unit 103.

一般而言,配置於液晶顯示面板100之玻璃基板上的閘極驅動晶片101a~101n之個數會伴隨著液晶顯示面板100之解析度的增加而增加,且每一組系統電壓於閘極驅動晶片101a~101n間的走線皆為串聯的形式。也亦因如此,在液晶顯示器開關機的瞬間,過大的湧入電流(inrush current)極有可能會流進用以接收閘極驅動開啟電壓VGH 的電源接收銲墊PGH ,造成電源接收銲墊PGH 的燒毀。如此一來,不但會導致閘極驅動晶片101a~101n無法順利開啟顯示單元103內之每一條掃描線的畫素,且更會使得顯示單元103無法顯示影像畫面給使用者觀看。In general, the number of the gate driving chips 101a to 101n disposed on the glass substrate of the liquid crystal display panel 100 increases as the resolution of the liquid crystal display panel 100 increases, and each group of system voltages is driven at the gate. The traces between the wafers 101a to 101n are all in series. Thus also also because, at the moment the switch liquid crystal display, an excessive inrush current (inrush current) is likely to receive will flow into the gate driver power supply voltage V GH turn receiving pad P GH, resulting in weld power receiver Pad P GH burned. As a result, not only can the gate driving chips 101a-101n fail to open the pixels of each scanning line in the display unit 103, but also the display unit 103 can not display the image screen for viewing by the user.

圖2繪示為本發明一實施例之液晶顯示器200的系統架構示意圖。請參照圖2,液晶顯示器(LCD)200包括液晶顯示面板(LCD panel)201、控制板(control board)203、軟性印刷電路板(flexible printed circuit board,FPC)205,以及用以提供背光源給液晶顯示面板201使用的背光模組(backlight module)207。FIG. 2 is a schematic diagram showing the system architecture of a liquid crystal display 200 according to an embodiment of the invention. Referring to FIG. 2, a liquid crystal display (LCD) 200 includes a liquid crystal display panel (LCD panel) 201, a control board 203, a flexible printed circuit board (FPC) 205, and a backlight for providing A backlight module 207 used in the liquid crystal display panel 201.

於本實施例中,液晶顯示面板201包括多個閘極驅動晶片(本實施例先以3個為例來做說明,但並不限制於此,且此個數會依據液晶顯示面板201之解析度以及單一閘極驅動晶片的通道數來決定之)201a~201c與顯示單元201d。其中,閘極驅動晶片201a~201c會透過晶粒-玻璃接合製程(chip on glass,COG)而直接配置在液晶顯示面板201之玻璃基板(glass substrate)上的一側。顯示單元201d 內會具有多條掃描線(scan lines,未繪示)與資料線(data lines,未繪示),且該些掃描線和資料線彼此交錯定義出多個畫素(pixels)。In the present embodiment, the liquid crystal display panel 201 includes a plurality of gate driving chips.

The degree and the number of channels of the single gate drive chip are determined to be 201a to 201c and the display unit 201d. The gate driving chips 201a to 201c are directly disposed on one side of the glass substrate of the liquid crystal display panel 201 through a die-on-glass (COG) process. Display unit 201d There are a plurality of scan lines (not shown) and data lines (not shown), and the scan lines and the data lines are alternately defined with each other to define a plurality of pixels.

控制板203至少包括電源供應單元203a與時序控制器(T-con)203b。於本實施例中,控制板203會透過晶粒-軟片接合製程(chip on film,COF)所製作的軟性印刷電路板205而與液晶顯示面板201耦接在一起,且此軟性印刷電路板205上更配置有源極驅動器(source driver)205a。The control board 203 includes at least a power supply unit 203a and a timing controller (T-con) 203b. In this embodiment, the control board 203 is coupled to the liquid crystal display panel 201 through a flexible printed circuit board 205 made by a chip-on-film (COF) process, and the flexible printed circuit board 205 is coupled. A source driver 205a is further disposed.

一般而言,時序控制器203b會透過軟性印刷電路板205來控制閘極驅動晶片201a~201c與源極驅動器205a的作動,藉以再搭配背光模組207而致使顯示單元201d顯示影像畫面給使用者觀看。然而,該等顯示的技術並非本發明所琢磨的重點,且此等技術又屬本發明領域具有通常知識者所熟識,故在此並不再加以贅述之,而以下內容將針對本發明所欲闡述的技術重點來做一詳加描述。In general, the timing controller 203b controls the operation of the gate driving chips 201a-201c and the source driver 205a through the flexible printed circuit board 205, so as to match the backlight module 207, causing the display unit 201d to display the image image to the user. Watch. However, the techniques of the present invention are not the focus of the present invention, and such techniques are well known to those of ordinary skill in the art, and therefore will not be further described herein, and the following will be directed to the present invention. Describe the technical focus to make a detailed description.

電源供應單元203a用以提供液晶顯示面板201所需之多組系統電壓(system voltages),例如:共用電壓VCOM 、閘極驅動開啟電壓VGH 、閘極驅動關閉電壓VGL ,以及邏輯操作電壓VDDA ,且每一組系統電壓VCOM 、VGH 、VGL 、VDDA 皆會透過軟性印刷電路板205而傳導至液晶顯示面板201中。The power supply unit 203a is configured to provide a plurality of sets of system voltages required by the liquid crystal display panel 201, such as a common voltage V COM , a gate drive turn-on voltage V GH , a gate drive turn-off voltage V GL , and a logic operating voltage. V DDA , and each set of system voltages V COM , V GH , V GL , V DDA is conducted to the liquid crystal display panel 201 through the flexible printed circuit board 205.

由先前技術所揭示的內容可知,習知每一組系統電壓於各閘極驅動晶片間的走線皆為串聯的形式。也亦因如此,在液晶顯示器開關機的瞬間,過大的湧入電流極有可 能會流進各電源接收銲墊,尤其是用以接收閘極驅動開啟電壓(VGH )的電源接收銲墊,因閘極驅動開啟電壓通常遠大於其他電源接收銲墊之接收電壓,故過大的湧入電流將造成其燒毀,如此一來將會導致閘極驅動晶片無法順利開啟顯示單元201d內之每一條掃描線對應的畫素。It can be seen from the prior art that the traces of each set of system voltages between the gate drive wafers are in series. Also, at the moment when the liquid crystal display is turned on and off, an excessive inrush current may flow into each power receiving pad, especially a power receiving pad for receiving the gate driving turn-on voltage (V GH ). Since the gate driving turn-on voltage is usually much larger than the receiving voltage of other power receiving pads, excessive inrush current will cause it to burn, which will cause the gate driving chip to fail to open each scan in the display unit 201d smoothly. The pixel corresponding to the line.

於此,為了要能有效地解決先前技術所述及的缺點,圖3A繪示為圖2之閘極驅動晶片201a~201c配置在液晶顯示面板101之玻璃基板上的佈局放大示意圖。請合併參照圖2及圖3,閘極驅動晶片201a至少具有電源接收銲墊PGH1 、PGL1 、PGL2 、PDDA1 、PDDA2 ,輔助銲墊(auxiliary bonding pad)DP1 ~DP4 ,以及輔助走線(auxiliary trace)DT1 、DT2 。閘極驅動晶片201b至少具有電源接收銲墊PGH2 、PGL3 、PGL4 、PDDA3 、PDDA4 ,輔助銲墊DP5 、DP6 ,以及輔助走線DT3 。閘極驅動晶片201c至少具有電源接收銲墊PGH3 、PGL5 、PGL6 、PDDA5 、PDDA6 。此處所謂輔助銲墊,通常係指驅動晶片在一般操作下不會使用來傳輸訊號之銲墊,在有些情況下,驅動晶片上可能不會設置輔助銲墊,而設置輔助銲墊的目的之一通常係預留給特殊操作或特定用途之用,例如,本發明即利用輔助銲墊之設置,來解決大量電流湧入以致電源接收銲墊可能燒毀之問題;有時輔助銲墊也可稱做空置銲墊(dummy bonding pad),輔助銲墊之數量和其佈局方式可視實際需要而要求驅動晶片供應產商加以設計。Herein, in order to effectively solve the disadvantages described in the prior art, FIG. 3A is a schematic enlarged view showing the arrangement of the gate driving chips 201a to 201c of FIG. 2 disposed on the glass substrate of the liquid crystal display panel 101. Referring to FIG. 2 and FIG. 3 together, the gate driving chip 201a has at least power receiving pads P GH1 , P GL1 , P GL2 , P DDA1 , P DDA2 , auxiliary bonding pads DP 1 ~ DP 4 , and Auxiliary traces DT 1 , DT 2 . The gate driving chip 201b has at least power supply receiving pads P GH2 , P GL3 , P GL4 , P DDA3 , P DDA4 , auxiliary pads DP 5 , DP 6 , and auxiliary traces DT 3 . The gate driving chip 201c has at least power supply receiving pads P GH3 , P GL5 , P GL6 , P DDA5 , and P DDA6 . The term "auxiliary pad" as used herein generally refers to a pad that does not use a driver chip to transmit signals under normal operation. In some cases, an auxiliary pad may not be provided on the driver wafer, and the purpose of the auxiliary pad is set. Usually, it is reserved for special operations or specific purposes. For example, the present invention utilizes the setting of the auxiliary pad to solve the problem that a large amount of current is poured so that the power receiving pad may be burnt; sometimes the auxiliary pad can also be called Dummy bonding pads, the number of auxiliary pads and their layout can be designed to drive the chip supplier according to actual needs.

在此先值得一提的是,基於液晶顯示面板101之製程 因素的考量,每一個閘極驅動晶片201a~201c的結構應當相同,但於圖3中僅會標示出與本發明相關的電源接收銲墊、輔助銲墊,以及輔助走線來做說明如下。What is worth mentioning here is the process based on the liquid crystal display panel 101. In consideration of factors, the structure of each of the gate driving chips 201a to 201c should be the same, but only the power receiving pads, the auxiliary pads, and the auxiliary wirings related to the present invention will be described in FIG. 3 as follows.

於本實施例中,電源接收銲墊PGL1 用以接收閘極驅動關閉電壓VGL ,且於閘極驅動晶片201a~201c間的走線是以串聯的形式而連接至電源接收銲墊PGL6 ,亦即閘極驅動關閉電壓VGL 於各閘極驅動晶片20la~201c間的走線為串聯的形式。相似地,電源接收銲墊PDDA1 用以接收邏輯操作電壓VDDA ,且於閘極驅動晶片201a~201c間的走線亦以串聯的形式而連接至電源接收銲墊PDDA6 ,亦即邏輯操作電壓VDDA 於各閘極驅動晶片201a~201c間的走線亦為串聯的形式。In this embodiment, the power receiving pad P GL1 is configured to receive the gate driving turn-off voltage V GL , and the traces between the gate driving chips 201a to 201c are connected in series to the power receiving pad P GL6 . That is, the traces of the gate drive turn-off voltage V GL between the gate drive wafers 20la to 201c are in series. Similarly, the power receiving pad P DDA1 is used to receive the logic operating voltage V DDA , and the traces between the gate driving chips 201 a - 201 c are also connected in series to the power receiving pad P DDA6 , that is, logic operation The traces of the voltage V DDA between the gate drive chips 201a to 201c are also in series.

電源接收銲墊PGH1 與輔助銲墊DP1 、DP3 用以各別同時接收閘極驅動開啟電壓VGH ,且輔助銲墊DP1 會透過輔助走線DT1 而與輔助銲墊DP2 連接在一起,並透過玻璃基板上的走線GT1 將閘極驅動開啟電壓VGH 傳輸至電源接收銲墊PGH2 。另外,輔助銲墊DP3 亦會透過輔助走線DT2 而與輔助銲墊DP4 連接在一起,並透過玻璃基板上的走線GT2 將閘極驅動開啟電壓VGH 傳輸至輔助銲墊DP5 。再者,輔助銲墊DP5 亦會透過輔助走線DT3 而與輔助銲墊DP6 連接在一起,並透過玻璃基板上的走線GT3 將閘極驅動開啟電壓VGH 傳輸至電源接收銲墊PGH3 。其中,輔助走線DT1 及DT2 是以閘極驅動晶片201a的內部走線為例,而輔助走線DT3 是以閘極驅動晶片201b的內部走線為例。The power receiving pad P GH1 and the auxiliary pads DP 1 and DP 3 are used to receive the gate driving turn-on voltage V GH at the same time, and the auxiliary pad DP 1 is connected to the auxiliary pad DP 2 through the auxiliary trace DT 1 . Together, the gate drive turn-on voltage V GH is transmitted to the power supply receiving pad P GH2 through the trace GT 1 on the glass substrate. In addition, the auxiliary pad DP 3 is also connected to the auxiliary pad DP 4 through the auxiliary trace DT 2 , and transmits the gate driving turn-on voltage V GH to the auxiliary pad DP through the trace GT 2 on the glass substrate. 5 . In addition, the auxiliary pad DP 5 is also connected to the auxiliary pad DP 6 through the auxiliary trace DT 3 , and transmits the gate driving turn-on voltage V GH to the power receiving solder through the trace GT 3 on the glass substrate. Pad P GH3 . The auxiliary traces DT 1 and DT 2 are exemplified by the internal trace of the gate drive wafer 201a, and the auxiliary trace DT 3 is exemplified by the internal trace of the gate drive wafer 201b.

由於習知在液晶顯示器開關機的瞬間,用以接收閘極驅動開啟電壓(VGH )的各電源接收銲墊是最會發生燒毀的地方,其中尤以第一顆閘極晶片(如閘極驅動晶片201a)中之用以接收間極驅動開啟電壓的電源接收銲墊,最為容易燒毀,所以本實施例之閘極驅動開啟電壓VGH 於各閘極驅動晶片201a~201c間的走線係改為如並聯排列之佈局形式,亦即閘極驅動開啟電壓VGH 於傳輸至驅動晶片201a時將同時分流至電源接收銲墊PGH1 、輔助銲墊DP1 和輔助銲墊DP3 。也亦因如此,在液晶顯示器100開關機的瞬間,電源接收銲墊PGH1 所實際感受到的湧入電流(inrush current)之強度會降為先前技術圖1所揭示之電源接收銲墊PGH 的三分之一倍左右,而且每一電源接收銲墊PGH1 ~PGH3 於液晶顯示器100開關機的瞬間所感受到的湧入電流之強度亦會接近相同。如此一來,本實施例將會大大地降低電源接收銲墊PGH1 ~PGH3 於液晶顯示器100開關機之瞬間所造成燒毀的可能性/機率。Since it is known that the power receiving pads for receiving the gate drive turn-on voltage (V GH ) are the most likely to burn out at the instant of switching the liquid crystal display, especially the first gate wafer (such as the gate) The power receiving pad for receiving the inter-polar driving turn-on voltage in the driving chip 201a) is most likely to be burned. Therefore, the gate driving turn-on voltage V GH of the present embodiment is routed between the gate driving chips 201a to 201c. Instead, the layout form of the parallel arrangement, that is, the gate drive turn-on voltage V GH is simultaneously shunted to the power supply receiving pad P GH1 , the auxiliary pad DP 1 and the auxiliary pad DP 3 when being transferred to the driving wafer 201a. Also, at the moment when the liquid crystal display device 100 is turned on and off, the intensity of the inrush current actually felt by the power receiving pad P GH1 is reduced to the power receiving pad P GH disclosed in the prior art FIG. It is about one-third of the same, and the intensity of the inrush current felt by each power receiving pad P GH1 ~ P GH3 at the moment when the liquid crystal display 100 is turned on and off will be nearly the same. As a result, the present embodiment will greatly reduce the possibility/probability of burning of the power receiving pads P GH1 P P GH3 at the instant of switching on and off of the liquid crystal display 100.

此外,依據閘極驅動晶片201a~201c間的佈局結構,可再提出另一佈局方式,圖3B為圖2之閘極驅動晶片201a~201c配置在液晶顯示面板101之玻璃基板上的另一佈局放大示意圖。在本實施例中電源接收銲墊PGH1 、輔助銲墊DP1 及DP3 ,係透過一導電元件CL(例如一導電線)彼此電性耦合連接,其中,導電元件CL可以是玻璃基板上的一走線,並可透過異方向性導電膠(ACF)或其他方式與電源接收銲墊PGH1 、輔助銲墊DP1 及DP3 電性耦接。藉此, 閘極驅動開啟電壓VGH 將可同時間地傳送到電源接收銲墊PGH1 與輔助銲墊DP1 、DP3 ,使得閘極驅動開啟電壓VGH 不會同時只集中於電源接收銲墊PGH1 ,進而降低湧入電流之效應。In addition, another layout may be further proposed according to the layout structure between the gate driving chips 201a to 201c. FIG. 3B is another layout of the gate driving chips 201a to 201c of FIG. 2 disposed on the glass substrate of the liquid crystal display panel 101. Zoom in on the schematic. In this embodiment, the power receiving pad P GH1 and the auxiliary pads DP 1 and DP 3 are electrically coupled to each other through a conductive element CL (for example, a conductive line), wherein the conductive element CL may be on a glass substrate. A trace can be electrically coupled to the power receiving pad P GH1 and the auxiliary pads DP 1 and DP 3 through an anisotropic conductive paste (ACF) or the like. Thereby, the gate driving turn-on voltage V GH can be simultaneously transferred to the power receiving pad P GH1 and the auxiliary pads DP 1 , DP 3 , so that the gate driving turn-on voltage V GH is not concentrated only on the power receiving soldering at the same time. Pad P GH1 , which in turn reduces the effects of inrush current.

除此之外,空置銲執DP1 及DP3 並不一定要經由驅動晶片201a內部之輔助走線DT1 及DT2 來傳遞閘極驅動開啟電壓VGH ,圖3C繪示為圖2之閘極驅動晶片201a~201c配置在液晶顯示面板101之玻璃基板上的再一佈局放大示意圖。請參照圖3A與圖3C,其最大的不同之處為本實施例中係完全藉由玻璃基板上的走線BT1 與BT2 而不需透過驅動晶片內部之輔助走線來傳遞閘極驅動開啟電壓VGH 。在本實施例中,輔助銲墊DP1 及DP3 是分別經由玻璃基板上的走線BT1 及BT2連接電源接收銲墊PGH2 及PGH3 。電源接收銲墊PGH1 與輔助銲墊DP1 、DP3 用以各別同時接收閘極驅動開啟電壓VGH ,較佳地,在另一實施例中,電源接收銲墊PGH1 與輔助銲墊DP1 、DP3 可透過如第3B圖之導電元件CL(例如玻璃基板上之一導電線)之設計,使彼此電性連接,以分別同時接收閘極驅動開啟電壓VGH 。本實施例中輔助銲墊DP1 藉由走線BT1 連接電源接收銲墊PGH2 ,用以將閘極驅動開啟電壓VGH 傳輸至電源接收銲墊PGH2 。而輔助銲墊DP3 藉由走線BT2 連接電源接收銲墊PGH3 ,用以將閘極驅動開啟電壓VGH 傳輸至電源接收銲墊PGH3 。藉此同樣可使閘極驅動開啟電壓VGH 於各閘極驅動晶片201a~201c間的走線呈現為並聯的形式。在圖3C實 施例中,由於閘極驅動開啟電壓VGH 係藉由玻璃基板上的走線BT1 與BT2 傳輸,故相較於圖3A之實施例省略輔助銲墊DP2 、DP4 、DP5 和DP6 之設計,然而,在其它實施例中,輔助銲墊DP2 、DP4 、DP5 和DP6 亦可予以保留,如此一來驅動晶片上下兩側之銲墊數將較為對稱,使得驅動晶片黏著於玻璃基板時,其壓著應力較能均勻分布;或使驅動晶片於製程上較為容易製作。In addition, the vacant soldering DP 1 and DP 3 do not necessarily transmit the gate driving turn-on voltage V GH via the auxiliary traces DT 1 and DT 2 inside the driving chip 201a, and FIG. 3C shows the gate of FIG. Further layout of the pole drive wafers 201a to 201c disposed on the glass substrate of the liquid crystal display panel 101 is shown. Referring to FIG. 3A and FIG. 3C , the biggest difference is that in this embodiment, the gate drive is transmitted by the traces BT 1 and BT 2 on the glass substrate without passing through the auxiliary traces driving the inside of the wafer. Turn on the voltage V GH . In the present embodiment, the auxiliary pads DP 1 and DP 3 are connected to the power receiving pads P GH2 and P GH3 via the traces BT 1 and BT2 on the glass substrate, respectively. The power receiving pad P GH1 and the auxiliary pads DP 1 and DP 3 are used to receive the gate driving turn-on voltage V GH at the same time. Preferably, in another embodiment, the power receiving pad P GH1 and the auxiliary pad DP 1 and DP 3 can be electrically connected to each other through a design of a conductive element CL (for example, a conductive line on a glass substrate) as shown in FIG. 3B to simultaneously receive the gate drive turn-on voltage V GH . In the embodiment, the auxiliary pad DP 1 is connected to the power receiving pad P GH2 through the wire BT 1 for transmitting the gate driving turn-on voltage V GH to the power receiving pad P GH2 . The auxiliary pad DP 3 is connected to the power receiving pad P GH3 through the wire BT 2 for transmitting the gate driving turn-on voltage V GH to the power receiving pad P GH3 . Thereby, the gate driving turn-on voltage V GH can also be made in parallel between the gate driving chips 201a to 201c. In the embodiment of FIG. 3C, since the gate driving turn-on voltage V GH is transmitted through the traces BT 1 and BT 2 on the glass substrate, the auxiliary pads DP 2 and DP 4 are omitted from the embodiment of FIG. 3A. The design of DP 5 and DP 6 , however, in other embodiments, the auxiliary pads DP 2 , DP 4 , DP 5 and DP 6 can also be retained, so that the number of pads on the upper and lower sides of the wafer will be more symmetrical. When the driving wafer is adhered to the glass substrate, the pressing stress is evenly distributed; or the driving wafer is relatively easy to manufacture on the manufacturing process.

然而,依據本發明的精神,並不限至於上述諸實施例的實施方式,亦即:閘極驅動開啟電壓VGH 於各閘極驅動晶片201a~201c間的走線會呈現為並聯的形式,而閘極驅動關閉電壓VGL 與邏輯操作電壓VDDA 於各閘極驅動晶片201a~201c間的走線會呈現為串聯的形式。於本發明的其他實施例中,使用者可依實際設需求來決定閘極驅動開啟電壓VGH 、閘極驅動關閉電壓VGL 與邏輯操作電壓VDDA 這三者個別於各閘極驅動晶片201a~201c間的走線是否要呈現為並聯的形式,而該等變形的實施方式也屬本發明所欲保護的範疇之一。However, according to the spirit of the present invention, it is not limited to the embodiments of the above embodiments, that is, the traces of the gate driving turn-on voltage V GH between the gate driving chips 201a to 201c may be in parallel form. The traces between the gate drive turn-off voltage V GL and the logic operating voltage V DDA between the gate drive chips 201a - 201c may be in a series connection. In other embodiments of the present invention, the user can determine the gate driving turn-on voltage V GH , the gate drive turn-off voltage V GL , and the logic operating voltage V DDA according to actual requirements, and each of the gate driving chips 201a Whether the traces between ~201c are to be in parallel form, and the embodiments of the variants are also one of the categories to be protected by the present invention.

至此,依據上述諸實施例所揭示的內容可知,其主要是利用每一個閘極驅動晶片內部多餘的輔助銲墊、輔助走線以及驅動晶片間之玻璃上的走線(或僅利用玻璃基板上的走線而不使用輔助走線)來傳輸閘極驅動開啟電壓(VGH )、閘極驅動關閉電壓(VGL )以及邏輯操作電壓(VDDA )至少其中之一或其三者間的組合,藉以使這些系統電壓之任一於所有閘極驅動晶片間的走線呈現為並聯的 形式。換言之,本發明之設計概念係針對任一具有較大電流之系統電壓於進入第一顆驅動晶片時透過複數個輔助銲墊、複條輔助走線以及驅動晶片間之玻璃上的走線(或僅利用玻璃基板上的走線而不使用輔助走線)之佈局進行分流動作,藉以減輕該系統電壓瞬間集中於單一個接收墊的湧入電流效應(inrush current effect),降低接收銲墊燒毀的機會。因此,只要是依據這樣的概念來達到抑制直接配置在液晶顯示面板之玻璃基板上的任一閘極驅動晶片之電源接收銲墊於液晶顯示器開關機之瞬間所造成燒毀的可能性/機率之實施方案就屬本發明所欲保護的範疇。So far, according to the disclosure of the above embodiments, it is mainly used to drive each of the gates to drive excess auxiliary pads, auxiliary traces, and traces on the glass between the wafers (or only on the glass substrate). The trace without using the auxiliary trace) to transmit at least one of the gate drive turn-on voltage (V GH ), the gate drive turn-off voltage (V GL ), and the logic operating voltage (V DDA ) or a combination of the three In order to make any of these system voltages appear in parallel in all traces between the gate drive wafers. In other words, the design concept of the present invention is directed to any of the auxiliary pads, the auxiliary auxiliary traces, and the traces on the glass between the driving wafers when entering the first driving wafer for any system voltage having a large current (or The shunting action is performed only by using the layout on the glass substrate instead of the auxiliary traces, thereby reducing the inrush current effect of the system voltage instantaneously concentrated on a single receiving pad, and reducing the burning of the receiving pad. opportunity. Therefore, as long as it is based on such a concept, it is possible to achieve the possibility of suppressing the burning of the power receiving pad of any gate driving chip directly disposed on the glass substrate of the liquid crystal display panel at the moment of switching on or off the liquid crystal display. The solution is within the scope of the invention to be protected.
