In other words, a silicon substrate is required.
- a silicon substrate is required.
- using a silicon substrate increases the cost of the light-emitting module. Therefore, in related technologies, for high-resolution image forming equipment, there are significant limitations on the selection of the substrate for the light-emitting module, resulting in a higher cost for the light-emitting module.
- Figure 8 is a schematic diagram of the arrangement of a light source array and a driving circuit array in the direction perpendicular to the thickness of the substrate according to an embodiment of this application.
- the driving circuit array 300 is disposed to the side of the light source array 200 in the first direction, and the interval between the driving circuit array 300 and the light source array 200 in the first direction is greater than 0.

This allows for a larger spacing between the driving circuit array 300 and the light source array 200, thereby reducing the impact of heat generated by the light source 2111 on the driving circuit 311. This makes the performance of the driving circuit 311 less prone to drift or failure, helping to maintain the performance of the light-emitting module 10 and extending its lifespan. Furthermore, since the driving circuit array 300 is positioned to the side of the light source array 200 in the first direction, the size of the driving circuit 311 is no longer limited by the center-to-center distance between two adjacent light sources 2111 in the light source array 200.

在一种可能的实施方式中,光源组的多排光源排包括相邻的第一光源排和第二光源排,第一光源排和第二光源排均包括光源。在同一组光源组中,第一光源排的光源与第二光源排的光源在第二方向上错位分布。如此,在第一光源排发光后,只需要转动感光鼓,再使第二光源排发光,就可以在分辨率保持不变的基础上进行曝光成像,曝光成像操作较为简单。
在一种可能的实施方式中,光源组的多排光源排包括相邻的第三光源排和第四光源排,第三光源排和第四光源排均包括沿第二方向呈直线分布的多个光源。在同一组光源组中,第三光源排的光源与第四光源排的光源相对于位于二者之间的对称面对称设置,其中,对称面为与第一方向垂直的平面。如此,光源阵列在第二方向上的尺寸较小,可使发光模块在第二方向上的尺寸较小。
在一种可能的实施方式中,任意两条电连接线在基板的厚度方向上的投影不相交。如此,相对于在基板的厚度方向上的投影相交的两条电连接线,两条电连接线不易因在基板的厚度方向上的投影相交的部分产生寄生电容而对光源驱动造成影响。此外,可实现所有的电连接线在半导体薄膜结构的同层走线,可减少形成半导体薄膜结构的制程,使得形成半导体薄膜结构的工艺较为简单、成本较低。
在一种可能的实施方式中,每条电连接线在基板的厚度方向上的投影与所有的驱动电路在基板的厚度方向上的投影均不相交。如此,相对于在基板的厚度方向上的投影与驱动电路在基板的厚度方向上的投影相交的电连接线,驱动电路与电连接线之间不易因在基板的厚度方向上的投影相交的部分产生寄生电容而对光源驱动造成影响。此外,便于实现电连接线通过驱动电路所在结构层走线,可减少形成半导体薄膜结构的制程,使得形成半导体薄膜结构的工艺较为简单、成本较低。
在一种可能的实施方式中,电连接线在基板的厚度方向上的投影为两端沿第一方向延伸的直线。如此,电连接线在基板的厚度方向上的投影无拐角,使得对形成电连接线的工艺要求较低,进而可使形成电连接线更为容易。此外,可使电连接线的长度较短,进而可使电连接线的电阻较小、电流通过电连接线时的损耗较小。
在一种可能的实施方式中,驱动电路基于半导体工艺形成于基板上。如此,可使形成的驱动电路的精度较高,便于形成尺寸较小的驱动电路。
在一种可能的实施方式中,发光模块包括由预设等温线分隔形成的第一温区和第二温区,驱动电路阵列位于第一温区,光源阵列位于第二温区。其中,预设等温线为光源阵列以最高功率发光时预设温度的等温线,预设温度为发光模块的温度,预设温度小于或者等于60℃。如此,可使驱动电路不易受到光源发光产生的热量的影响。
在一种可能的实施方式中,每条电连接线的电阻相同。如此,每个驱动电路与对应的光源之间的电阻均相同,可使发光模块的光源发光的均一性较好。

如图2、图3所示,在本申请实施例中,打印头1包括壳体20、透镜组30和发光模块10。壳体20设置在机体2上,发光模块10设置在壳体20内。发光模块10包括基板100和光源阵列200,基板100与壳体20相连,光源阵列200设置在基板100的厚度方向上的一侧,光源阵列200朝向背离基板100的方向发光,也就是说,光源阵列200背离基板100的一侧为光源阵列200的出光侧。壳体20具有出光孔21,出光孔21位于光源阵列200的出光侧,出光孔21用于供光源阵列200发出的光线射出壳体20,透镜组30设置在出光孔21处,透镜组30可以封堵出光孔21,感光鼓3位于光源阵列200的出光侧,光源阵列200发出的光线经透镜组30聚光后照射到感光鼓3的表面,以实现对感光鼓3的选择性曝光。
壳体20可以为长度方向上的两端沿感光鼓3的轴向延伸的条形结构,出光孔21可以为长度方向上的两端沿感光鼓3的轴向延伸的条形孔。

示例性的,透镜组30可以设置在壳体20的表面。
在一些示例中,打印头1还包括设置在壳体20的内壁上的吸光层40,吸光层40用于吸收壳体20内的散射光。通过设置吸光层40,可将光源阵列200发出的照射到透镜组30以外的部分的散射光吸收掉,可防止散射光被壳体20反射后照射到感光鼓3上对成像形成干扰。其中,吸光层40可贴合于壳体20的内表面,可为高分子薄膜、金属薄膜、陶瓷薄膜等。
图4为本申请实施例提供的另一种打印头的示意图。

本领域技术人员可以理解的是,本申请实施例中的“多”指的是数量大于或者等于2,例如,“多排”指的是大于或者等于2排,多个指的是大于或者等于2个。
打印头1并不是特指打印机中用于曝光形成图像的器件,除打印机外,复印机、传真机等其他可以通过曝光形成图像的设备均可以包括打印头1。
图6为本申请实施例提供的一种发光模块的电连接示意图,图7为本申请实施例提供的一种发光模块的示意图。图中,a1方向为第一方向,a2方向为第二方向,b方向为基板100的厚度方向,第一方向和第二方向均与基板100的厚度方向垂直,第一方向与第二方向垂直。
如图6、图7所示,发光模块10还包括驱动电路阵列300。光源阵列200包括多个光源2111,驱动电路阵列300包括与多个光源2111一一对应的多个驱动电路311,光源2111通过电连接线L1与对应的驱动电路311电连接,驱动电路311可以用于形成驱动电流,以通过驱动电流驱动对应的光源2111发光。
基板100为条形结构,基板100的长度方向与壳体20的长度方向相同,基板100的宽度方向与壳体20的宽度方向相同,也就是说,基板100的长度方向的两端沿感光鼓3的轴向延伸,基板100的宽度方向的两端沿垂直于感光鼓3的轴向的方向延伸。
示例性的,光源阵列200的每个光源2111均为相同的光源2111,驱动电路阵列300的每个驱动电路311均为相同的驱动电路311。如此,可使发光模块10的光源2111发光的均一性较好。

在一些示例中,驱动电路311还可以具有数据写入、复位、补偿等功能中的一种或者多种。
发光模块10可以包括半导体薄膜结构600,半导体薄膜结构600形成在基板100的厚度方向上的一侧,半导体薄膜结构600可以包括驱动电路阵列300和电连接线L1。半导体薄膜结构600为基于半导体工艺形成于基板100上的结构,也就是说,驱动电路311和电连接线L1可以基于半导体工艺形成于基板100上。如此,形成的驱动电路311、电连接线L1等结构的精度较高,便于在基板100上形成尺寸较小的驱动电路311、电连接线L1等微结构。
半导体薄膜结构600包括沿基板的厚度方向层叠的多层结构层。
在一些示例中,光源2111可以贴设在半导体薄膜结构600背离基板100的一侧,此时,半导体薄膜结构600可以不包括光源2111。
在另一些示例中,半导体薄膜结构600可以包括光源2111,也就是说,光源2111可以基于半导体工艺形成在基板100上。
发光模块10还包括驱动芯片400,每个驱动电路311均通过对应的数据线L2与驱动芯片400电连接。驱动芯片400可以用于形成控制待发光的光源2111按照目标亮度发光的驱动信号,并将驱动信号发送给待发光的光源2111对应的驱动电路311,该驱动电路311根据该驱动信号形成驱动待发光的光源2111按照目标亮度发光的驱动电流。
发光模块10还包括电路板500,每个驱动电路311通过对应的发光电源正电压线L4(VDD)与电路板500电连接,每个光源2111通过发光电源负电压线L5(VSS)与电路板500电连接,使得电路板500与驱动电路311和对应的光源2111之间可以形成回路。
示例性的,电路板500可以为柔性电路板(flexible printed circuit board,FPC)。
电路板500与控制器(未示出)电连接,电路板500通过扫描线L3与驱动电路阵列300电连接,使得控制器可以通过电路板500和扫描线L3向驱动电路阵列300发送扫描信号,以实现光源阵列200的光源2111按序发光。

半导体薄膜结构600可以包括数据线L2、扫描线L3、发光电源正电压线L4和发光电源负电压线L5,也就是说,数据线L2、扫描线L3、发光电源正电压线L4和发光电源负电压线L5均可以基于半导体工艺形成于基板100上。
在相关技术中,光源与对应的驱动电路常在基板的厚度方向上重叠设置,也就是说,光源沿基板的厚度方向上的投影与对应的驱动电路沿基板的厚度方向上的投影至少部分重合。
在相关技术中,由于光源与驱动电路在基板的厚度方向上的间隔常常较小,光源发光产生的热量易对驱动电路造成影响,使得驱动电路的性能易发生漂移或者失效,进而会影响发光模块的性能和使用寿命。
另外,在相关技术中,由于驱动电路与对应的光源在基板的厚度方向上重叠设置,驱动电路的尺寸会受到光源阵列中相邻的两个光源的中心距的限制,对驱动电路的尺寸的要求较高,具体来说,在驱动电路的尺寸大于光源阵列中相邻的两个光源的中心距时,较难在光源阵列的每个光源重叠的位置一一对应的布置驱动电路。对于分辨率较高的图像形成设备,光源阵列中相邻的两个光源的中心距较小,例如,对于分辨率为1200dpi的图像形成设备,光源阵列中相邻的两个光源的中心距仅为21.16um。而在基板采用玻璃基板等时,受到在玻璃基板上的结构成型工艺、检测工艺等的限制,形成的驱动电路的尺寸常常较大,较难布置到分辨率较高的图像形成设备中。比如,在基板采用玻璃基板时,较难形成尺寸小于或者等于21.16um的驱动电路,对于分辨率为1200dpi的图像形成设备,在玻璃基板上形成的驱动电路较难一一对应的与光源阵列中的光源重叠布置。对于分辨率较高的图像形成设备,为使驱动电路能够一一对应的与光源阵列中的光源重叠布置,驱动电路常常需要在硅基板上制成,以形成尺寸较小的驱动电路,也就是说,基板需要采用硅基板,然而,采用硅基板会使发光模块的成本较高。因此,在相关技术中,对于分辨率较高的图像形成设备,对发光模块的基板的选型的限制较大,发光模块的成本较高。
图8为本申请实施例提供的一种光源阵列和驱动电路阵列在垂直于基板的厚度方向的布置示意图。
如图8所示,并参看图7,基于此,在本申请实施例中,驱动电路阵列300设置在光源阵列200在第一方向上的侧方,驱动电路阵列300与光源阵列200在第一方向上的间隔大于0。也就是说,驱动电路阵列300在基板100的厚度方向上的投影与光源阵列200在基板100的厚度方向上的投影不重合,且驱动电路阵列300在基板100的厚度方向上的投影与光源阵列200在基板100的厚度方向上的投影在第一方向上的间隔大于0。
基板100在长宽方向上的尺寸较大,这样,可以利用基板100长宽方向上的尺寸,将驱动电路阵列300与光源阵列200之间的间距拉大,进而可减小光源2111发光产生的热量对驱动电路311的影响,使得驱动电路311的性能不易发生漂移或者失效,利于保持发光模块10的性能,提高使用寿命。另外,驱动电路阵列300设置在光源阵列200在第一方向上的侧方后,驱动电路311的尺寸不再受光源阵列200中相邻的两个光源2111的中心距的限制,也就是说,驱动电路311的尺寸可以大于光源阵列200中相邻的两个光源2111的中心距,使得对驱动电路311的尺寸的要求较低,在本申请实施例的方案中,对于分辨率较高的图像形成设备也可以采用玻璃基板等作为发光模块10的基板100,对发光模块10的基板100的选型限制较小,便于选用成本较低的基板100来制造发光模块10,以降低发光模块10的成本。
在一些可能的实施方式中,基板100为玻璃基板,如此,玻璃基板的成本较低,利于降低发光模块10的成本。
在一些可能的实施方式中,发光模块10包括由预设等温线分隔形成的第一温区Q1和第二温区Q2,第二温区Q2为预设等温线围合形成的区域以内的区域,第一温区Q1为预设等温线围合形成的区域以外的区域。驱动电路阵列300位于第一温区Q1,光源阵列200位于第二温区Q2。其中,预设等温线为光源阵列200以最高功率发光时预设温度的等温线t,预设温度为发光模块10的温度,预设温度小于或者等于60℃。光源阵列200以最高功率发光时,第一温区Q1的温度小于预设温度,第二温区Q2的温度高于预设温度。
这样,可使驱动电路311不易受到光源2111发光产生的热量的影响。
预设等温线、第一温区Q1和第二温区Q2可以通过在光源阵列200以最高功率发光时对发光模块10进行热仿真得到。
示例性的,预设温度可以为60℃、55℃、50℃、45℃、40℃、35℃等。
在一些示例中,第一方向可以为基板100的宽度方向,也就是说,第一方向可以与感光鼓3的轴向垂直,此时,第二方向为基板100的长度方向。
这样,基板100位于光源阵列200在第一方向两侧的空间较大,基板100上可用于布置驱动电路阵列300的空间较大,便于数量较多的驱动电路311在基板100上的布置。
在另一些示例中,第一方向可以为基板100的长度方向,也就是说,第一方向可以为感光鼓3的轴向,此时,第二方向为基板100的宽度方向。
如图7、图8所示,在一些示例中,光源阵列200包括沿第二方向分布的多个光源2111。在第二方向上,驱动电路阵列300的至少部分位于光源阵列200的两端之间。
这样,驱动电路阵列300与光源阵列200在第二方向上的位置至少部分重合,利于减小发光模块10在第二方向上的尺寸。
在一些可能的实施方式中,光源阵列200包括沿第二方向分布的n组光源组210,驱动电路阵列300包括沿第二方向分布的n组驱动电路组310,每组驱动电路组310与一组光源组210相对应,每组驱动电路组310用于驱动对应的一组光源组210发光。在第二方向上,驱动电路组310的至少部分位于对应的光源组210的两端之间。
光源组210包括沿第二方向分布的多个光源2111,驱动电路组310包括与对应的光源组210的多个光源2111一一对应的多个驱动电路311,驱动电路组310的每个驱动电路311均通过电连接线L1与对应的光源组210中的一个对应的光源2111电连接,驱动电路组310的每个驱动电路311均用于驱动对应的光源组210中的一个对应的光源2111发光。其中,n为大于或者等于2的整数。
这样,在驱动电路311的数量较多时,可以利用基板100在第二方向上的尺寸来分组布置多组驱动电路组310,利于减小发光模块10在第一方向上的尺寸。
光源组210中的光源2111的数量可以根据驱动电路311在第二方向上的尺寸进行调整。
示例性的,所有的驱动电路组310沿第二方向呈直线排布,所有的光源组210沿第二方向呈直线排布。如此,曝光成像操作较为简单。
在一些可能的实施方式中,所有的驱动电路311位于光源阵列200在第一方向上的同一侧,也就是说,驱动电路阵列300设置在光源阵列200在第一方向上的一侧。
这样,相对于光源阵列200在第一方向两侧都布置有驱动电路311的方案,驱动电路311对数据线L2、扫描线L3、发光电源正电压线L4、发光电源负电压线L5等线路的走线的影响较小,数据线L2、扫描线L3、发光电源正电压线L4、发光电源负电压线L5等线路的布线较为容易。
在所有的驱动电路311位于光源阵列200在第一方向上的同一侧的一些示例中,在第一方向,光源阵列200位于驱动芯片400与驱动电路阵列300之间。
这样,便于将光源阵列200设置在基板100在第一方向上的中间的位置,光源阵列200不易因误触而发生损坏。
在所有的驱动电路311位于光源阵列200在第一方向上的同一侧的另一些示例中,在第一方向上,驱动电路阵列300位于光源阵列200与驱动芯片400之间。
这样,可使连接驱动芯片400与驱动电路311的数据线L2等线路布线较为容易。
图9为本申请实施例提供的又一种光源阵列和驱动电路阵列在垂直于基板的厚度方向的布置示意图。
如图9所示,在一些可能的实施方式中,光源阵列200在第一方向的两侧均设置有驱动电路311。如此,便于将光源阵列200设置在基板100在第一方向上的中间的位置。
在驱动电路阵列300包括沿第二方向分布的n组驱动电路组310的一些示例中,驱动电路组310包括第一子驱动电路组310a和第二子驱动电路组310b,第一子驱动电路组310a和第二子驱动电路组310b,第一子驱动电路组310a和第二子驱动电路组310b分别位于光源阵列200在第一方向上的两侧,第一子驱动电路组310a和第二子驱动电路组310b均包括驱动电路311,光源组210中的光源2111的数量等于对应的驱动电路组310的第一子驱动电路组310a和第二子驱动电路组310b中的驱动电路311的数量之和。
在一些可能的实施方式中,每组光源组210的光源2111的数量均为m个,其中,m为大于或者等于2的整数。也就是说,每组光源组210中的光源2111的数量相同,每组驱动电路组310中的驱动电路311的数量相同。
这样,便于使每组驱动电路组310中的驱动电路311实现相同的布置,使得不易因不同驱动电路组310的驱动电路311的数量不同而使不同驱动电路组310产生的寄生电容不同,可使发光模块10的光源2111发光的均一性较好。
示例性的,每组驱动电路组310与对应的光源组210均处于相同的相对位置。如此,不易因不同的驱动电路组310与对应的光源组210的相对位置的差异导致不同的驱动电路组310与对应的光源组210之间产生的寄生电容不同,可使发光模块10的光源2111发光的均一性较好。
示例性的,每组驱动电路311中的驱动电路311的按照相同的排布方式排布。如此,使得不易因不同驱动电路组310的驱动电路311的布置不同而使不同驱动电路组310产生的寄生电容不同,可使发光模块10的光源2111发光的均一性较好。
在一些可能的实施方式中,每条电连接线L1的电阻相同。
如此,每个驱动电路311与对应的光源2111之间的电阻均相同,可使发光模块10的光源2111发光的均一性较好。
可以通过使电连接线L1的通流截面与电连接线L1的乘积相同,来使每条电连接线L1的电阻相同。
例如,在电连接线L1的厚度相同,可以通过使电连接线L1的长度与电连接线L1的线宽的乘积相同,来使每条电连接线L1的电阻相同。
图10为本申请实施例提供的又一种光源阵列和驱动电路阵列在垂直于基板的厚度方向的布置示意图。
如图10所示,驱动电路311包括第一端3111和第二端3112,第一端3111和第二端3112分别位于驱动电路311的长度方向上的两端,位于光源阵列200在第一方向同一侧的驱动电路311的第一端3111的朝向相同,位于光源阵列200在第一方向同一侧的驱动电路311的第二端3112的朝向相同。
在一些可能的实施方式中,驱动电路311的长度方向上的两端沿第二方向延伸,也就是说,驱动电路311的第一端3111和第二端3112在第二方向上间隔设置。在同一组驱动电路组310中,所有的驱动电路311沿第一方向分布。
这样,驱动电路311沿基板100的长度方向或者宽度方向形成,在形成驱动电路311时对驱动电路311的成型方向的控制较为容易,使得在基板100上形成驱动电路311较为容易。此外,同一组驱动电路组310的所有的驱动电路311沿第一方向分布,便于在一组驱动电路组310中布置数量较多的驱动电路311,便于在分辨率较高的图像形成设备中实现驱动电路311的布置。
在驱动电路311的长度方向上的两端沿第二方向延伸、且同一组驱动电路组310中所有的驱动电路311沿第一方向分布的一些示例中,在同一组驱动电路组310中,位于光源阵列200在第一方向同一侧的驱动电路311的第一端3111沿第一方向呈直线排布。如此,驱动电路组310在第二方向上的尺寸较小。
在同一驱动电路组310中位于光源阵列200在第一方向同一侧的驱动电路311的第一端3111沿第一方向呈直线排布时,在同一驱动电路组310中位于光源阵列200在第一方向同一侧的驱动电路311的第二端3112也沿第一方向呈直线排布。
在一些可能的实施方式中,任意两条电连接线L1在基板100的厚度方向上的投影不相交。
如此,相对于在基板100的厚度方向上的投影相交的两条电连接线L1,两条电连接线L1不易因在基板100的厚度方向上的投影相交的部分产生寄生电容而对光源2111驱动造成影响。此外,可实现所有的电连接线L1在半导体薄膜结构600的同层走线,可减少形成半导体薄膜结构600的制程,使得形成半导体薄膜结构600的工艺较为简单、成本较低。
在一些可能的实施方式中,每条电连接线L1在基板100的厚度方向上的投影与所有的驱动电路311在基板100的厚度方向上的投影均不相交。
如此,相对于在基板100的厚度方向上的投影与驱动电路311在基板100的厚度方向上的投影相交的电连接线L1,驱动电路311与电连接线L1之间不易因在基板100的厚度方向上的投影相交的部分产生寄生电容而对光源2111驱动造成影响。此外,便于实现电连接线L1通过驱动电路311所在结构层走线,可减少形成半导体薄膜结构600的制程,使得形成半导体薄膜结构600的工艺较为简单、成本较低。
电连接线L1包括电路连接段L11和光源连接段L12,电路连接段L11的一端与驱动电路311相连,电路连接段L11的另一端通过光源连接段L12与光源2111相连。
在一些示例中,电路连接段L11为两端沿第二方向延伸的直线。如此,便于实现电连接线L1在基板100的厚度方向上的投影与所有的驱动电路311在基板100的厚度方向上的投影均不相交。
图11为本申请实施例提供的又一种光源阵列和驱动电路阵列在垂直于基板的厚度方向的布置示意图。
如图11所示,在驱动电路311的长度方向上的两端沿第二方向延伸、且同一组驱动电路组310中所有的驱动电路311沿第一方向分布的一些示例中,在同一组驱动电路组310中,位于光源阵列200在第一方向同一侧的远离光源阵列200的驱动电路311的第一端3111凸出于靠近光源阵列200的驱动电路311的第一端3111。此时,在同一组驱动电路组310中,位于光源阵列200在第一方向同一侧的靠近光源阵列200的驱动电路311的第二端3112凸出于远离光源阵列200的驱动电路311的第二端3112。
这样,驱动电路311可以通过朝向光源阵列200的一侧与电连接线L1相连,可使电路连接段L11在第二方向上所需的空间较小,进而可布置在第二方向上尺寸更大的驱动电路311,在供驱动电路组310及其电连接的电连接线L1布置的空间在第二方向上的尺寸一定时,可降低对驱动电路311的尺寸的要求。
在一些示例中,电路连接段L11为两端沿第一方向延伸的直线。
这样,相对于电路连接段L11为两端沿第二方向延伸的直线的方案,可以减少电连接线L1在基板100的厚度方向上的投影的拐角,使得对形成电连接线L1的工艺要求较低,进而可使形成电连接线L1更为容易。此外,可使电连接线L1的长度较短,进而可使电连接线L1的电阻较小、电流通过电连接线L1时的损耗较小。
图12为本申请实施例提供的又一种光源阵列和驱动电路阵列在垂直于基板的厚度方向的布置示意图。
如图12所示,在一些可能的实施方式中,电连接线L1在基板100的厚度方向上的投影为两端沿第一方向延伸的直线。
这样,电连接线L1在基板100的厚度方向上的投影无拐角,使得对形成电连接线L1的工艺要求较低,进而可使形成电连接线L1更为容易。此外,可使电连接线L1的长度较短,进而可使电连接线L1的电阻较小、电流通过电连接线L1时的损耗较小。
图13为本申请实施例提供的一种发光模块在第二方向一侧的示意图。
如图13所示,并参看图12,在一些示例中,至少一条电连接线L1在基板100的厚度方向上的投影与至少一个驱动电路311在基板100的厚度方向上的投影相交。至少一条电连接线L1包括跳线段L13,跳线段L13在基板100的厚度方向上的投影与至少一个驱动电路311在基板100的厚度方向上的投影相交,跳线段L13与驱动电路311位于半导体薄膜结构600在基板100的厚度方向上的不同结构层。
如此,便于实现电连接线L1在基板100的厚度方向上的投影为两端沿第一方向延伸的直线。
在一些示例中,在第二方向上,驱动电路组310位于对应的光源组210的两端之间。如此,驱动电路阵列300在第二方向上的尺寸较小,可使发光模块10在第二方向上的尺寸较小。
图14为本申请实施例提供的又一种光源阵列和驱动电路阵列在垂直于基板的厚度方向的布置示意图。
如图14所示,在另一些示例中,在第二方向上,驱动电路组310的部分位于对应的光源组210的两端之间,部分凸出于对应的光源组210。
这样,便于布置在第二方向上尺寸较大的驱动电路311,对驱动电路311的尺寸的限制较小。
图15为本申请实施例提供的又一种光源阵列和驱动电路阵列在垂直于基板的厚度方向的布置示意图。
如图15所示,在一些可能的实施方式中,驱动电路311的长度方向上的两端沿第三方向延伸。在同一组驱动电路组310中,位于光源阵列200在第一方向同一侧的驱动电路311沿第四方向排布。其中,第三方向和第四方向均与基板100的厚度方向垂直,第三方向和第四方向均相对于第二方向倾斜,第四方向与第三方向垂直。
这样,可使相邻两组驱动电路组310在驱动电路311的长度方向上的间距较小,可使驱动电路阵列300的布置较为灵活。
示例性的,在同一组驱动电路组310中,位于光源阵列200在第一方向同一侧的驱动电路311的第一端3111沿第四方向呈直线排布,位于光源阵列200在第一方向同一侧的驱动电路311的第二端3112沿第四方向呈直线排布。
图16为本申请实施例提供的又一种光源阵列和驱动电路阵列在垂直于基板的厚度方向的布置示意图。
如图16所示,在一些可能的实施方式中,光源组210包括沿第一方向分布的多排光源排211,每排光源排211均包括光源2111。
这样,通过沿第一方向布置多排光源2111,可以在分辨率保持不变的基础上,减少每排光源2111的数量,进而可以布置尺寸更大的光源2111,利于提高光源2111发光的亮度。此外,光源阵列200在第二方向上的尺寸较小,可使发光模块10在第二方向上的尺寸较小。
在一些可能的实施方式中,光源组210的多排光源排211包括相邻的第一光源排211a和第二光源排211b,第一光源排211a和第二光源排211b均包括光源2111。在同一组光源组210中,第一光源排211a的光源2111与第二光源排211b的光源2111在第二方向上错位分布。
这样,在第一光源排211a发光后,只需要转动感光鼓3,再使第二光源排211b发光,就可以在分辨率保持不变的基础上进行曝光成像,曝光成像操作较为简单。
图17为本申请实施例提供的又一种光源阵列和驱动电路阵列在垂直于基板的厚度方向的布置示意图。
如图17所示,在一些示例中,光源组210的所有的光源排211的光源2111在第二方向上均错位分布。
在一些示例中,每排光源排211均包括多个沿第二方向呈直线分布的光源2111。
图18为本申请实施例提供的又一种光源阵列和驱动电路阵列在垂直于基板的厚度方向的布置示意图。
如图18所示,在一些示例中,每排光源排211包括一个光源2111,光源组210的所有的光源排211的光源2111在第二方向上均错位分布。
图19为本申请实施例提供的又一种光源阵列和驱动电路阵列在垂直于基板的厚度方向的布置示意图。
如图19所示,在一些可能的实施方式中,光源组210的多排光源排211包括相邻的第三光源排211c和第四光源排211d,第三光源排211c和第四光源排211d均包括沿第二方向呈直线分布的多个光源2111。在同一组光源组210中,第三光源排211c的光源2111与第四光源排211d的光源2111相对于位于二者之间的对称面m对称设置,其中,对称面m为与第一方向垂直的平面。
这样,光源阵列200在第二方向上的尺寸较小,可使发光模块10在第二方向上的尺寸较小。
此时,在第三光源排211c发光后,需要转动感光鼓3,并沿感光鼓3的轴向移动打印头1或者发光模块10,使第四光源排211d与第三光源排211c发光的位置错位,然后在使第四光源排211d发光,如此,可以在分辨率保持不变的基础上进行曝光成像。
