[0032] The present application will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It can be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present application, but not to limit the present application. In addition, it should be noted that, for the convenience of description, only the parts related to the present application are shown in the drawings, rather than all the structures.
[0033] Figure 1 A schematic view of a top structure of an array substrate according to an embodiment of the present application is provided, Figure 2 A schematic view of a top structure of an array substrate according to an embodiment of the present application is provided, Figure 1 A schematic view of a top structure of an array substrate according to an embodiment of the present application is provided, Figure 1 A schematic view of a top structure of an array substrate according to an embodiment of the present application is provided, Figure 2 The array substrate includes a display area 100 and a non-display area 200. The non-display area 200 is located at the periphery of the display area 100, and the non-display area 200 includes adjacent side non-display areas 210 and a bottom non-display area 220. The side non-display areas 210 are arranged along a first direction with the display area 100. The side non-display areas 210 are located at one side of the display area 100 along the first direction. The bottom non-display area 220 is arranged along a second direction with the display area 100, and the bottom non-display area 220 is located at one side of the display area 100 along the second direction. The first direction intersects the second direction.
[0034] The array substrate comprises a substrate 310, a plurality of cascaded shift registers 320, a first binding pad 331 and a plurality of input signal lines 40. The plurality of cascaded shift registers 320 are located on one side of the substrate 310. The plurality of cascaded shift registers 320 are located on the side non-display area 210. The first binding pad 331 is located on the bottom non-display area 220. The first end of the input signal line 40 is electrically connected with the input end of the shift register 320, the second end of the input signal line 40 is electrically connected with the first binding pad 331, the input signal line 40 connects the input end of the shift register 320 with the first binding pad 331, and is used for transmitting the signal of the first binding pad 331 to the input end of the shift register 320.
[0035] Exemplarily, the first binding pad 331 can be electrically connected with a driving chip or a flexible circuit board provided with the driving chip, so as to receive the signal from the driving chip and transmit the signal to the input end of the shift register 320 through the input signal line 40, and drive the shift register 320 to work.
[0036] The input signal line 40 comprises a first connecting part 41 and a second connecting part 42 connected with each other. The first connecting part 41 is located on the side non-display area 210, the first connecting part 41 is directly electrically connected with the input end of the shift register 320, and the second connecting part 42 is located on the display area 100.
[0037] In the array substrate provided by the embodiment of the present application, the second connecting part 42 in the input signal line 40 is located on the display area 100, the second connecting part 42 in the input signal line 40 does not need to occupy the space of the non-display area 200, so that the layout path of the input signal line 40 can reduce the frame and improve the screen-to-body ratio.
[0038] Exemplarily, referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the input signal line 40 comprises a third connecting part 43, the first end of the third connecting part 43 is electrically connected with the second connecting part 42, and the second end of the third connecting part 43 is electrically connected with the first binding pad 331. The third connecting part 43 is located on the bottom non-display area 220.
[0039] Optionally, referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2The display area 100 includes a non-right-angle corner 51, and the side non-display area 210 includes a chamfered area 510, which is adjacent to the non-right-angle corner 51. The chamfered area 510 is located on the periphery of the non-right-angle corner 51. The connection point between the first connecting part 41 and the second connecting part 42 is located in the chamfered area 510. This avoids the situation where the connection point between the first connecting part 41 and the second connecting part 42 is located in the display area 100, and the connection point between the first connecting part 41 and the second connecting part 42 does not occupy space in the display area 100. On the other hand, the space in the chamfered area 510 is relatively small. If the input signal line 40 is placed in the chamfered area 510, that is, the input signal line 40 is placed in the chamfered area 510, but the input signal line 40 does not include the portion located in the display area 100, then the input signal line 40 occupies the space in the chamfered area 510. If other components need to be placed there, only a relatively large border can be set. In this embodiment of the invention, by routing the input signal line 40 around the display area 100, the space occupied by the input signal line 40 in the chamfered area 510 is reduced, thereby reducing the bezel size.
[0040] In one embodiment, the connection point between the first connecting portion 41 and the second connecting portion 42 is located in the display area 100.
[0041] In one embodiment, the display area 100 may also be rectangular in shape, and the display area 100 may include right-angled corners.

Data lines 62 and pixel driving circuitry are both located in display area 100. Multiple data lines 62 extend along a second direction and are arranged along a first direction.

Perpendicular to the substrate 310, the data line 62 is located on the side of the pixel driving circuit 63 away from the substrate 310, and the second connection portion 42 is located on the side of the film layer containing the data line 62 away from the substrate 310. In this embodiment of the invention, the second connection portion 42 is located on the side of the pixel driving circuit 63 and the data line 62 away from the substrate 310. The second connection portion 42 is made of a metal layer other than the pixel driving circuit 63 and the data line 62, so that the second connection portion 42 will not form unwanted electrical connections with the pixel driving circuit 63 and the data line 62.
[0043] Exemplarily, referring to Figures 3-5 The array substrate includes a plurality of scan lines 61 extending along a first direction and arranged along a second direction, located in the display area 100, for providing a scan signal. The plurality of scan lines 61 cross the plurality of data lines 62 to define a plurality of pixel units. The output end of the shift register 320 is electrically connected with the scan line 61 for providing the scan signal to the scan line 61. In other embodiments, the array substrate can further include a light-emitting control signal line, and the output end of the shift register 320 is electrically connected with the light-emitting control signal line for providing a light-emitting control signal to the light-emitting control signal line.
[0044] Exemplarily, referring to Figure 5 The pixel driving circuit 63 includes a thin film transistor 64 including a source electrode 641, a semiconductor layer 642, a gate electrode 643 and a drain electrode 644. The source electrode 641 of the thin film transistor 64 and the drain electrode 644 of the thin film transistor 64 are in the same layer and are located on the side of the gate electrode 643 away from the substrate 310. The film layer where the data line 62 is located is located on the side of the film layer where the source electrode 641 and the drain electrode 644 of the thin film transistor 64 are located away from the substrate 310. The second connection part 42 is located on the side of the film layer where the data line 62 is located away from the substrate 310.
[0045] Exemplarily, referring to Figure 5 The gate electrode 643 of the thin film transistor 64 is located in the first metal layer, the source electrode 641 and the drain electrode 644 of the thin film transistor 64 are located in the second metal layer, the data line 62 is located in the third metal layer, and the second connection part 42 is located in the fourth metal layer. The first metal layer, the second metal layer, the third metal layer and the fourth metal layer are arranged in sequence along the direction away from the substrate 310.
[0046] Exemplarily, referring to Figures 3-5 The first connection part 41 is in the same layer as the source electrode 641 and the drain electrode 644 of the thin film transistor 64, so that the first connection part 41, the source electrode 641 of the thin film transistor 64 and the drain electrode 644 of the thin film transistor 64 can be formed by using the same material and in the same process, thereby saving the process. The first connection part 41 is located in the second metal layer, the second connection part 42 is located in the fourth metal layer, the first connection part 41 and the second connection part 42 are in different layers, and the first connection part 41 and the second connection part 42 are electrically connected through the first connection via hole 71. The first connection via hole 71 is the connection point of the first connection part 41 and the second connection part 42.
[0047] Figure 6 Another cross-sectional structure diagram of an array substrate provided by an embodiment of the present application is shown in FIG. 6. Referring to Figure 6The first connecting part 41 is in the same layer with the data line 62, so that the first connecting part 41 and the data line 62 can be formed by using the same material and in the same process, thereby saving the process procedure. The first connecting part 41 is in the third metal layer, the second connecting part 42 is in the fourth metal layer, the first connecting part 41 and the second connecting part 42 are in different layers, and the first connecting part 41 and the second connecting part 42 are electrically connected through the first connecting via 71.

A first end of the data lead-out line 80 is electrically connected with the data line 62, and a second end of the data lead-out line 80 is electrically connected with the second binding pad 332. The data lead-out line 80 connects the data line 62 and the second binding pad 332, and is used for transmitting a signal of the second binding pad 332 to the data line 62. The second connecting part 42 is arranged in the same layer with the data lead-out line 80, so that the second connecting part 42 and the data lead-out line 80 can be formed by using the same material and in the same process, thereby saving the process procedure. It should be noted that the data lead-out line 80 is arranged in the display area 100, and the data line 62 is led out to the second binding pad 332 in the bottom non-display area 220, so that the fan-out wiring does not need to be arranged in the bottom non-display area 220, the space of the bottom non-display area 220 is reduced, and the frame is reduced. On this basis, the second connecting part 42 is formed by using the metal in the same layer with the data lead-out line 80, without increasing the additional metal layer and the manufacturing process on the array substrate, and the frame is reduced and the screen-to-body ratio is improved.
[0049] Exemplarily, the second binding pad 332 can be electrically connected with a driving chip or a flexible circuit board provided with the driving chip, so as to receive a signal from the driving chip and transmit the signal to the data line 62 through the data lead-out line 80, thereby providing the data signal for the data line 62.
[0050] Optionally, referring to Figures 7-9The second connecting portion 42 is located between the data lead-out line 80 and the non-display region 200. In the first direction, or the reverse direction of the first direction, the data lead-out line 80 is closer to the central axis of the display region 100, the second connecting portion 42 is farther from the central axis of the display region 100, and the distance between the data lead-out line 80 and the central axis of the display region 100 is less than the distance between the second connecting portion 42 and the central axis of the display region 100. The central axis of the display region 100 is parallel to the second direction, and the display region 100 is symmetrical about the central axis of the display region 100. In the embodiment of the present application, since the shift register 320 is located at the periphery of the data line 62, correspondingly, the second connecting portion 42 is arranged at the periphery of the data lead-out line 80 to avoid the intersection of the second connecting portion 42 and the data lead-out line 80 in the same layer.
[0051] Exemplarily, referring to Figure 9 , the data line 62 is located in the third metal layer, the data lead-out line 80 is located in the fourth metal layer, the data line 62 and the data lead-out line 80 are in different layers, and the data line 62 and the data lead-out line 80 are electrically connected through the second connecting via 72. The second connecting via 72 is located in the display region 100. In other embodiments, the second connecting via 72 can also be located in the non-display region 200.

The first power signal portion 411 is electrically connected with the second connecting portion 42 through the first connecting via 71.
[0054] Exemplarily, the power signal lines include a high-level power signal line (i.e., VHG) and a low-level power signal line (i.e., VGL).
[0055] Optionally, referring to Figure 8 and Figure 10 The first power signal part 411 and the second power signal part 412 are electrically connected with the same second connection part 42. The line width of the first power signal part 411 and the second power signal part 412 is smaller than the line width of the second connection part 42. That is, the line width of the second connection part 42 is larger than the line width of the first power signal part 411, and the line width of the second connection part 42 is larger than the line width of the second power signal part 412. In the embodiment of the present application, by increasing the line width of the second connection part 42, the resistance of the second connection part 42 is reduced, thereby facilitating the reduction of the resistance of the power signal line and the voltage drop on the power signal line.

The first clock signal part 413 is electrically connected with the second connection part 42 through the first connection via hole 71.
[0060] Exemplarily, the clock signal line includes a first clock signal line and a second clock signal line. The first clock signal line and the second clock signal line have opposite timing, that is, when the first clock signal line is high, the second clock signal line is low; when the first clock signal line is low, the second clock signal line is high.
