Abstract

A display may have an array of pixels arranged in rows and columns. The pixels may be organic light-emitting diode pixels that each include an organic light-emitting diode and thin-film transistor circuitry for controlling the diode or may be other suitable display pixels. The pixels may form an active area of the display that displays images. Display driver circuitry may be provided in an inactive border area of the display. The display may include vertical gate lines. The display may also include data lines. The data lines may include vertical data line portions and orthogonal horizontal data line portions coupled to the vertical data line portions with vias. During operation, data from the display driver circuitry may be provided to rows of the pixels using the data lines while the vertical gate lines supply control signals to columns of the pixels.
