可选地,notch所在区域的显示模组包括阵列基板和彩膜基板,阵列基板和彩膜基板的衬底基板一般由玻璃制成,故notch所在区域的显示模组具有双层玻璃;所述集成电路3所在区域的显示模组不包括彩膜基板,仅包括阵列基板,具有单层玻璃。
可以理解,相关技术中的CT电路位于衬底基板上集成电路所在区域,即位于单层玻璃上,单层玻璃区涂胶、Bonding工艺,易造成ESD击伤CT单元,造成暗线不良。而本公开实施例中,所述CT电路位于衬底基板上靠近notch的一侧,CT电路位于双层玻璃上,受制程产生的ESD风险较小,可以降低因切割、Bonding等模组制程产生ESD击伤CT单元出现暗线的风险。
图2-4示意了彩膜(CF)基板的边界,CF边界以上为显示区,CF边界以下为非显示区。图2-4仅示意了CF边界的位置,并不限定具体的显示区和非显示区的比例。在实际生产中,集成电路所在非显示区一般会做的尽可能小。

需要说明的是,本公开实施例源极开关的电路分布,可以由本领域技术人员根据线路分布进行确定。源极开关第一部分与金属线的距离,和第二部分与分割线的距离可以参照电路板设计相关原理进行分析设定。
可选地,本公开实施例源极开关2具体用于:
在盒测试阶段,导通相应的源极走线,以传输来自所述CT电路的测试信号;
在CT非测试阶段,断开相应的源极走线,以使传输所述测试信号的相应的源极走线处于悬空状态。
需要说明的是,本公开实施例断开用于输入CT电路信号的源极走线可以包括:盒测试时,源极开关输出高电平,控制所有开关为打开状态,此时CT电路输出的测试信号传输到各Source走线;盒测试后,源极开关输出低电平,控制所有源极开关为关闭状态,各Source走线处于悬空(Floating)状态,显示模组正常显示;其中,盒测试后的时间可以包括:CT电路随待切割notch被研磨掉或切割后,由于源极开关(SW-Source)处于关闭状态,各Source走线处于悬空状态,因此可以避免通过金属导线引入ESD风险,信赖性无风险。
可选地,本公开实施例源极开关2包括:薄膜晶体管(TFT)开关。如图2所示,所述TFT的栅极连接金属线,第一极连接相应的源极走线,第二级连接相应的CT电路。
可选地,本公开实施例所有所述CT电路1分布于分割线上方。
可选地,本公开实施例所述CT电路1均沿着水平方向呈直线排列,所述多个CT电路1的排列方向平行于待切割notch所在的衬底基板的侧边
需要说明的是,本公开实施例CT电路按照直线排布设置于分割线上方,避免对凹形槽位置的电容补偿和栅极(Gate)走线排布造成影响,不会使得槽口(notch)区域的边框增大。
可选地,所述多个CT电路包括多个薄膜晶体管TFT,所述多个TFT的栅极连接于同一驱动线。

可选地,所述待切割notch的切割线为U型、圆弧形、V型、或水滴型。沿着切割线切割或研磨后的显示模组具有notch,可形成切口显示屏。所述notch的形状和大小可根据实际情况、市场需求、美观和功能性等多方面考虑综合设计,本公开并不以此为限。
本公开实施例盒测试后,notch区域的CT电路随玻璃研磨或激光切割沿分割线去除;图3为本公开实施例显示基板分割线的分布示意图,如图3所示,显示基板包含:盒测试正驱动(CTD-ODD)、盒测试负驱动(CTD-EVEN)、和显示屏的行像素开关(图示的红(R)绿(G)蓝(B)像素开关),图中的虚线是分割线的位置。参见图3,本公开实施例CT电路均分布于所述分割线上方,这可以包括:槽口位置的CT电路设置在分割线往上位置,与分割线的距离可以由本领域技术人员分析确定;槽口两侧的CT电路设置在金属线靠近集成电路一侧,与金属线(行像素连接线)平行,与金属线的距离可以由本领域技术人员分析确定。考虑到研磨位置源极(Source)走线与切割边界平齐,易通过源极走线产生静电释放(ESD),且信赖性过程出现高低电压或出现电化学腐蚀。在金属线下方增加薄膜晶体管(TFT)开关—源极开关(SW-Source)。盒测试后,由于源极开关(SW-Source)处于关闭状态,各Source走线处于悬空状态,因此可以避免通过金属导线引入ESD风险,信赖性无风险。图4为本公开另一实施例显示基板的示意图,如图4所示,沿分割线研磨或激光切割后,显示基板中槽口位置的CT电路被切除。
本公开实施例将CT电路设计在IC对侧,待切割槽口位置处的CT电路可以为直线设计,盒测试后将待切割槽口位置的CT电路随槽口研磨掉。考虑ESD和走线腐蚀等因素,本公开实施例在CT电路位置增加TFT开关设计,使研磨掉CT电路的源极(Source)走线处于悬空(Floating)状态,避免了ESD和线路腐蚀导致的暗线风险,改善了因ESD造成CT电路击伤而产生 的暗线不良。相关技术中多个CT电路围绕待切割槽口设置,而本公开实施例中多个CT电路在待切割槽口的位置为直线排列。与相关技术相比,槽口位置处的CT电路由“5线1开关”减少至“1线1开关”。即,本公开实施例中的槽口位置处的所有CT电路仅由一条金属线控制驱动即可,而相关技术中槽口位置处的所有CT电路延切割线排列,一般由5条金属线控制TFT驱动,因此本公开实施例节省4根走线的空间。另外,在Source走线处增设源极开关,实现了Source走线双重保护。

本公开实施例将CT电路设计在显示屏上与IC相对一侧,待切割槽口位置处的CT电路可以为直线设计,盒测试后将待切割槽口位置的CT电路随槽口研磨掉。考虑ESD和走线腐蚀等因素,本公开实施例在CT电路位置增加TFT开关设计,使研磨掉CT电路的源极(Source)走线处于悬空(Floating)状态,避免了ESD和线路腐蚀导致的暗线风险,改善了因ESD造成CT电路击伤而产生的暗线不良。相关技术中多个CT电路围绕待切割槽口设置,而本公开实施例中多个CT电路在待切割槽口的位置为直线排列。与相关技术相比,槽口位置处的CT电路由“5线1开关”减少至“1线1开关”。即,本公开实施例中的槽口位置处的所有CT电路仅由一条金属线控制驱动即可,而 相关技术中槽口位置处的所有CT电路延切割线排列,一般由5条金属线控制驱动,因此本公开实施例节省4根走线的空间。另外,在Source走线处增设源极开关,实现了Source走线双重保护。
