Flat display panel having narrow bezel

摘要

The present disclosure relates to reducing bezel area of a flat display panel comprising a substrate with a non-display area surrounding a display area, the display area comprising common lines coupled to corresponding rows of pixels; and a gate driver formed in the non-display area. The display may further include a conductive sealing region formed in the non-display area and configured to supply a common line voltage; and a plurality of common pads formed within the conductive sealing region and each coupled to a corresponding one of the common lines to apply a common line voltage to the rows of pixels. Alternatively, the display may further include a vertical common line formed in the non-display area between the gate driver and the display area, the vertical common line extending from top to bottom of the non-display area and coupled to said common lines to apply a common voltage.

主权项

1. A flat display panel, comprising:
a substrate including a display area and a non-display area surrounding the display area, the display area comprising a plurality of common lines each coupled to a corresponding one of a plurality of rows of pixels; a gate in panel (GIP) gate driver formed in the non-display area of the substrate; a conductive sealing region formed in the non-display area, the conductive sealing region surrounding the gate driver, the conductive sealing region including conductive sealant supplying a common line voltage throughout an entirety of the conductive sealing region; and a plurality of common pads formed within the conductive sealing region and each coupled to a corresponding one of the common lines to apply the common line voltage to said corresponding one of the rows of pixels, the common line voltage supplied to the plurality of common pads through the conductive sealant surrounding each common pad, the conductive sealant electrically connecting the plurality of common pads directly to each other, wherein the plurality of common pads are disposed proximate to a first side of the gate driver, and the display area is disposed proximate to a second side of the gate driver opposite the first side.
