所述测试线路 21 包括奇数信号传输线 ODD 及偶数信号传输线 EVEN ,用于输出极性相反的交流信号,所述奇数信号传输线 ODD 及偶数信号传输线 EVEN 输出互为反相同步的周期脉冲信号。所述测试线路 21 还包括测试控制开关 S ,用于控制测试线路 21 的开与关,在本具体实施方式中,所述测试控制开关 S 为 N-MOS 薄膜晶体管。
所述分路器 20 包括 R 信号控制开关 TC1 、 G 信号控制开关 TC2 及 B 信号控制开关 TC3 ,用于控制数据信号是否通入 RGB 像素单元。在本具体实施方式中,所述 R 信号控制开关 TC1 、 G 信号控制开关 TC2 及 B 信号控制开关 TC3 为 N-MOS 薄膜晶体管。
所述液晶显示面板外围设计电路的工作过程如下:
在测试时,测试线路 21 的测试控制开关 S 打开,由 ODD/EVEN 传输信号,信号通过扇出结构 23 传输入分路器 20 ,驱动面板进行显示。测试结束后, 测试线路 21 的测试控制开关 S 关闭,驱动集成电路 22 通过扇出结构 23 传输信号进入分路器 20 ,实现面板正常显示。
图 3 是本发明液晶显示面板外围设计电路的各个信号的时序波形图,参见图 3 ,该时序波形图是面板显示红色画面下的各个信号的时序波形图, ODD/EVEN 提供极性反转的交流信号,提供高电位时,测试控制开关 S 打开,分路器 20 的 R 信号控制开关 TC1 提供高电位时, TC1 开启, 向 R 像素输入信号, TC2 与 TC3 一直保持低电位输出,不向 G 与 B 像素输入信号,液晶显示面板显示为红色。依次类推,当所述 TC1 及 TC3 为低电位,所述 TC2 为高电位时,向 G 像素输入信号,液晶显示面板显示为绿色,当所述 TC1 及 TC2 为低电位,所述 TC3 为高电位时,向 B 像素输入信号,液晶显示面板显示为蓝色。
在本具体实施方式中,将所述测试线路 21 设置在上键合垫 24 与下键合垫 25 之间,节省了测试线路占用的空间,有利于液晶显示面板的窄边框的设计。
图 4 为本发明液晶显示面板外围设计电路的第二具体实施方式的结构示意图,参见图 4 ,本具体实施方式与第一具体实施方式的区别在于,所述测试线路 21 采用信号单元测试线 SCT 提供测试信号,所述信号单元测试线 SCT 用于输出极性相反的交流信号。
图 5 是本发明液晶显示面板外围设计电路的第二具体实施方式的各个信号的时序波形图。参见图 5 ,该时序波形图是面板显示红色画面下的各个信号的时序波形图,信号单元测试线 SCT 提供极性反转的交流信号,提供高电位时,测试控制开关 S 打开,分路器 20 的 R 信号控制开关 TC1 提供高电位时, TC1 开启, 向 R 像素输入信号, TC2 与 TC3 一直保持低电位输出,不向 G 与 B 像素输入信号,液晶显示面板显示为红色。
图 6 为本发明液晶显示面板外围设计电路的第三具体实施方式的结构示意图,参见图 6 ,本具体实施方式与第一具体实施方式的区别在于,所述测试控制开关 S 为 P-MOS 薄膜晶体管,所述 R 信号控制开关 TC1 、 G 信号控制开关 TC2 及 B 信号控制开关 TC3 为 P-MOS 薄膜晶体管。其中,所述测试线路 21 可采用奇数信号传输线 ODD 及偶数信号传输线 EVEN 输出极性相反的交流信号,或者采用信号单元测试线 SCT 输出极性相反的交流信号。
