Display panel and manufacturing method thereof

Abstract

A display panel includes an array substrate, a first pixel unit, a first data line, a common line, a first fanout line, and an opposite substrate. The array substrate includes a substrate including a first display region, a second display region, and a non-display region. The second display region includes a first side and a second side connected to the first side. The non-display region is adjacent connected to the first side. The first display region is adjacent connected to the second side. The first display region has a third side opposite to the second side. The third side is substantially aligned with an edge of the substrate. A first fanout line is disposed on the non-display region and connected to the first data line. The first fanout line has an end substantially aligned with the edge of the substrate.

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION[0001]This application claims priority to Taiwan Application Serial Number 108116784, filed May 15, 2019, which is herein incorporated by reference in its entirety.BACKGROUNDField of Invention[0002]The present invention relates to a display panel and a manufacturing method thereof.Description of Related Art[0003]In terms of displays, a thin-film transistor liquid crystal display (TFT-LCD) having high resolution, high space utilization efficiency and low power consumption and no radiation has gradually become mainstream market products.[0004]The thin-film transistor array substrate has a plurality of pixel units, scan lines and data lines arranged in an array. The thin-film transistor of each pixel unit is controlled by the corresponding scan line and data line. The data line and the scan line are connected to the source driving circuit and the gate driving circuit through fanout lines.[0005]Generally, methods of forming the thin-film transistor ...

AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

The invention provides a display panel that can show a black image without any reduction in display quality. This is achieved by making the first data line of the array substrate electrically connected to the common line, so that a common voltage can be supplied to the first data line. By controlling the common potentials of the opposite substrate and the array substrate, the first pixel unit can be in a dark state. This prevents any issues related to the cut portion of the display panel.

Problems solved by technology

However, designing the mask is expensive.

Cutting the display with the large size may cause fanout line to be cut off such that the pixel units cannot be controlled.
