[0071] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the present disclosure clearer, the embodiments of the present disclosure will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Note that the embodiments can be implemented in a variety of different forms. A person of ordinary skill in the art can easily understand the fact that the methods and contents can be transformed into various forms without departing from the purpose and scope of the present disclosure. Therefore, the present disclosure should not be interpreted as being limited to the contents described in the following embodiments. In the absence of conflict, the embodiments in the present disclosure and the features in the embodiments can be arbitrarily combined with each other.
[0072] In the drawings, the sizes of various components, layer thicknesses, or regions may be exaggerated for clarity. Therefore, one embodiment of the present disclosure is not necessarily limited to these dimensions, and the shapes and sizes of the components in the drawings do not reflect true proportions. Furthermore, the drawings schematically illustrate idealized examples, and one embodiment of the present disclosure is not limited to the shapes or numerical values shown in the drawings.
[0073] In this specification, ordinal numbers such as “first”, “second” and “third” are provided to avoid confusion among constituent elements, and are not intended to limit the number.
[0074] In this specification, for convenience, words and phrases indicating orientation or positional relationships, such as "middle," "upper," "lower," "front," "back," "vertical," "horizontal," "top," "bottom," "inside," and "outside," are used to illustrate the positional relationships of constituent elements with reference to the accompanying drawings. This is merely for the purpose of facilitating the description of this specification and simplifying the description, and does not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed, or operate in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limiting the present disclosure. The positional relationships of constituent elements may be appropriately changed depending on the direction in which each constituent element is described. Therefore, the present disclosure is not limited to the words and phrases described in the specification and may be appropriately replaced according to the circumstances.
[0075] In this specification, unless otherwise specified or limited, the terms "mounted," "connected," and "connected" should be understood broadly. For example, they can refer to fixed, removable, or integral connections; mechanical or electrical connections; direct connections, indirect connections through intermediaries, or internal communication between two components. Those skilled in the art will understand the specific meanings of these terms in this disclosure.
[0076] In this specification, a transistor refers to a device that includes at least three terminals: a gate electrode, a drain electrode, and a source electrode. A transistor has a channel region between a drain electrode (drain electrode terminal, drain region, or drain electrode) and a source electrode (source electrode terminal, source region, or source electrode), and current can flow through the drain electrode, the channel region, and the source electrode. Note that in this specification, the channel region refers to the region through which current primarily flows.
[0077] In this specification, the first electrode can be a drain electrode and the second electrode can be a source electrode, or vice versa. The functions of "source electrode" and "drain electrode" may be interchanged when using transistors with opposite polarity or when the direction of current changes during circuit operation. Therefore, in this specification, "source electrode" and "drain electrode" may be interchanged.
[0078] In this specification, "electrically connected" includes components connected together via an element having some electrical function. There are no particular limitations on the "element having some electrical function" as long as it enables the transfer of electrical signals between the connected components. Examples of "element having some electrical function" include not only electrodes and wiring, but also switching elements such as transistors, resistors, inductors, capacitors, and other components with various functions.
[0079] In this specification, "parallel" refers to a state where the angle formed by two straight lines is greater than -10° and less than 10°, and thus also includes a state where the angle is greater than -5° and less than 5°. Furthermore, "perpendicular" refers to a state where the angle formed by two straight lines is greater than 80° and less than 100°, and thus also includes a state where the angle is greater than 85° and less than 95°.
[0080] In this specification, the terms "film" and "layer" may be interchanged. For example, "conductive layer" may be replaced with "conductive film." Similarly, "insulating film" may be replaced with "insulating layer."
[0081] The term "about" in the present disclosure refers to a numerical value that is not strictly defined and allows for process and measurement errors.
[0082] Micro LEDs can include micro light emitting diodes (Micro LEDs) and sub-millimeter light emitting diodes (Mini LEDs). They have the advantages of small size and high brightness and can be widely used in the backlight modules of display devices. Display products using Micro LED backlights can achieve the same contrast as organic light-emitting diode (OLED) display products, allowing the products to retain the technical advantages of liquid crystal displays (LCDs), thereby improving the display effect and providing users with a better visual experience. In addition, Micro LED displays have gradually become a hot topic in display panels, mainly used in AR / VR, TV and outdoor display fields.
[0083] At present, micro-LED backlight sources are usually made by miniaturizing, arraying, and thin-filming LED chips using miniaturization process technology, and transferring the LED chips in batches to the driving backplane through mass transfer technology. The typical size (such as length) of Micro LED can be less than 100μm, for example, 10μm to 50μm. The typical size (such as length) of Mini LED can be about 100μm to 300μm, for example, 120μm to 260μm. The driving backplane usually includes a plurality of light-emitting units, each of which can include a plurality of micro-LEDs and a display driver integrated circuit (DDIC) arranged in series.
[0084] Micro LED backlights are equipped with common voltage lines, and the voltage drop of these lines is crucial to the electrical performance of the entire micro LED backlight. A large voltage drop in these lines can affect the current flowing into the light-emitting units, reducing the uniformity of their light emission, leading to poor display quality and a shorter lifespan.

[0200] In an exemplary embodiment, the shape of the first connecting line depends on the positional relationship of the four light-emitting elements in the light-emitting unit.

[0205] like Figure 4 As shown, in an exemplary embodiment, when the signal detection line 11 is electrically connected to the first pad connection line 21 of the last row of light-emitting units, the angle between the extension direction of the signal detection line 11 and the first direction is greater than or equal to 90 degrees and less than 180 degrees.
[0206] In an exemplary embodiment, the driving backplane may include a plurality of light-emitting unit groups, each of which includes a plurality of light-emitting units. In each light-emitting unit group, the first input terminal Di of the pad 30 in one light-emitting unit is connected to the fourth signal line 34 through a connecting line, and the first input terminal Di of other light-emitting units receives the relay signal output by the output terminal Out of the light-emitting unit in the same column of the previous row as the first input signal. In this way, for a light-emitting unit group, only one first signal (address signal) needs to be provided through one connecting line, so that all light-emitting units in the light-emitting unit group can obtain their respective address signals, which greatly reduces the number of signal lines, saves wiring space, and simplifies the control method.
[0207] In an exemplary embodiment, a light-emitting unit may employ a two-period driving scheme. During a first period, the light-emitting unit may output a relay signal via output terminal Out based on a first signal received at a first input terminal Di and a second signal received at a second input terminal Pwr.

In an exemplary embodiment, the first and second periods are different periods, and the first period may precede the second period. For example, the first period may be continuous with the second period, with the end of the first period coinciding with the start of the second period. Alternatively, there may be another period between the first and second periods. This additional period may be used to implement other desired functions, or it may simply be used to separate the first and second periods to prevent interference between the signals at output terminal Out in the first and second periods.

"Thin film" refers to a thin film made by deposition, coating or other processes on a substrate of a certain material. If the "thin film" does not require a patterning process during the entire manufacturing process, the "thin film" can also be called a "layer". If the "thin film" requires a patterning process during the entire manufacturing process, it is called a "thin film" before the patterning process and a "layer" after the patterning process. The "layer" after the patterning process contains at least one "pattern". The phrase "A and B are arranged in the same layer" in this disclosure means that A and B are formed simultaneously through the same patterning process, and the "thickness" of the film layer refers to the dimension of the film layer in a direction perpendicular to the driver backplane. In exemplary embodiments of this disclosure, "the orthographic projection of A includes the orthographic projection of B" means that the boundary of the orthographic projection of B falls within the boundary of the orthographic projection of A, or that the boundary of the orthographic projection of A overlaps with the boundary of the orthographic projection of B.
