A display apparatus includes a plurality of gate drivers, a scan indication signal transmission line, a plurality of subsidiary transmission lines, and a plurality of auxiliary lines. The gate drivers are sequentially coupled in series to each other. The scan indication signal transmission line is configured to transmit a scan indication signal. The subsidiary transmission lines are sequentially coupled between two adjacent gate drivers, respectively. The auxiliary lines are respectively disposed between the scan indication signal transmission line and the subsidiary transmission lines. One of the auxiliary lines is selected to be electrically coupled to the scan indication signal transmission line and the corresponding subsidiary transmission line.

Display apparatus

An active matrix substrate includes a substrate and an insulating unit arranged on the substrate. The substrate includes a display region and a periphery circuit region beside the display region. The periphery circuit region has at least a chip connecting unit. Each chip connecting unit includes a number of connecting elements. Each of the connecting elements includes a conducting pad and a wire electrically connected to the conducting pad. The conducting pads of the connecting elements are arranged in at least two rows. The insulating unit has a number of contact holes corresponding to the conducting pads so that each of the conducting pads is entirely exposed by the corresponding contact hole. The active matrix substrate is applied to a display device to increase reliability of the display device and improve the quality of the display device.

Active matrix substrate

A display panel includes a first substrate, a display layer, a second substrate and a water-proofing frame. The first substrate has a view area and a ring-shaped through trench and includes a first base, a first metal layer, a gate-insulating layer, a second metal layer, a semiconductor layer, a bibulous insulating layer and a pixel-electrode layer. The gate-insulating layer is disposed between the first and the second metal layers. The bibulous insulating layer is disposed on the second metal layer and the gate-insulating layer. The ring-shaped through trench passes through the bibulous insulating layer and the part of the gate-insulating layer exposed by the second metal layer and surrounds the view area. The water-proofing frame is disposed at the ring-shaped through trench, connects the first substrate and the second substrate and encloses a wet-proof space between the first substrate and the second substrate. Besides, another display panel is also provided.

A pin definition layout of electronic paper display screen is provided. The electronic paper has a first pin area, a data signal source driver area, and a second pin area sequentially disposed at any side thereof. The first pin area and the second pin area each have a first power supply pin set and a second power supply pin set disposed thereon, and a plurality of No connections is disposed by intervals in the first power supply pin set and the second power supply pin set, so as to separate potential pins. Therefore, no interference is generated between the pins, thus achieving good electrical properties and reducing the wire complexity.

Pin definition layout of electronic paper display screen

An active device array substrate has a display area and a peripheral circuit area and further includes a plurality of pixel units, a plurality of signal lines, a plurality of testing pads and a first dielectric layer. The pixel units are arranged in the display area in an array. The signal lines and the testing pads are arranged in the peripheral circuit area. The first dielectric layer covers the testing pads. A testing method of the active device array substrate is that firstly removing a part of the first dielectric layer to expose a testing pad(s) desired to electrically contact with a testing tool. In other words, before the testing, the testing pads are electrically insulated from the exterior to prevent the pixel units from the electrostatic charges damage and thus the circuit stability of the active device array substrate can be improved.
