[0030] The present invention will be further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It is to be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present invention, rather than to limit the present invention. It should also be noted that, for ease of description, only parts related to the present invention, rather than all structures, are shown in the accompanying drawings.
[0031] It should be noted that the terms “having”, “including”, “comprising”, etc. described in the present application are all open-ended meanings, that is, when describing a module as “having”, “including” or “comprising” a first element, a second element and / or a third element, it means that the module includes other elements in addition to the first element, the second element and / or the third element. In addition, ordinal numbers such as “first”, “second” and “third” in the present application are not intended to limit a specific order, but are only intended to distinguish between the various parts. In the present application, when describing that layer A and layer B are “set in the same layer”, it means that layer A and layer B are made of the same material and process.
[0032] The display panel includes a light emitting element and a pixel driving circuit. The pixel driving circuit is electrically connected to the light emitting element accordingly to drive the light emitting element to emit light. Figure 1 A schematic diagram of a display panel structure in a related technology provided by an embodiment of the present invention, referring to Figure 1In the related art, the light emitting elements 10 are arranged in an array on one side of the driving substrate 30, and the pixel driving circuit 20 is disposed inside the driving substrate 30. The pixel driving circuit 20 includes a plurality of components and a plurality of wiring structures. For example, taking a low temperature polysilicon (LTPS) panel as an example, low temperature polysilicon is generally used as the semiconductor medium of the transistor in the pixel driving circuit 20. At the same time, in conjunction with the circuit design, about 11-19 mask exposures are required in the LTPS panel technology. Due to the high cost of the mask, the mask cost is high when the solution in the related art is adopted, which greatly increases the manufacturing cost of the driving substrate.
[0033] Based on the defects of the above-mentioned related technologies, an embodiment of the present invention provides a display panel, including a light-emitting element and a pixel driving circuit, which is electrically connected to the light-emitting element; the display panel also includes a driving substrate and a driving device, at least part of the driving device and the light-emitting element are located on the same side of the driving substrate, the driving device includes at least part of the structure of the pixel driving circuit, and the driving substrate includes at least part of the structure of the pixel driving circuit.
[0034] Through the above technical solution, the number of components and wiring structures in the driving substrate can be reduced, so that the relevant processes of some film layers in the driving substrate can be eliminated, which is conducive to reducing the number of masks in the preparation of the driving substrate, simplifying the mask process, and greatly reducing the manufacturing cost and difficulty of the driving substrate. In addition, it can also provide a larger layout space for the pixel driving circuit structure in the driving substrate, reducing the difficulty of wiring in the driving substrate.
[0035] The above is the core idea of the present invention. The technical scheme in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0036] Figure 2 A schematic diagram of the structure of a display panel provided by an embodiment of the present invention, Figure 3 A schematic diagram of the structure of another display panel provided by an embodiment of the present invention, Figure 4 for Figure 3 The cross-sectional structure diagram along the A-A' direction can be referred to Figure 2-Figure 4In an embodiment of the present invention, the display panel includes a light-emitting element 10 and a pixel driving circuit 20, and the pixel driving circuit 20 is electrically connected to the light-emitting element 10; the display panel also includes a driving substrate 30 and a driving device 40, at least part of the driving device 40 and the light-emitting element 10 are located on the same side of the driving substrate 30, the driving device 40 includes at least part of the structure of the pixel driving circuit 20, and the driving substrate 30 includes at least part of the structure of the pixel driving circuit 20.
[0037] like Figure 2-Figure 4 As shown, in this embodiment, the display panel includes a light emitting element 10, a driving device 40 and a driving substrate 30, wherein the driving device 40 is a component provided independently of the light emitting element 10. At least part of the driving device 40 can be arranged on the same side surface of the driving substrate 30 as the light emitting element 10. It can be defined that the light emitting element 10 and at least part of the driving device 40 are located on the first surface 30A of the driving substrate 30.
[0038] The driving substrate 30 may include a base substrate 300 and a metal layer 302 located on one side of the base substrate 300, and adjacent metal layers 302 are separated by an insulating layer 307. The base substrate 300 may be a rigid substrate such as glass or quartz, or a flexible substrate such as polyimide. The metal layer is used to lay out conductive structures, such as part of signal routing and connecting lines.
[0039] The display panel also includes a pixel driving circuit 20, which is electrically connected to the light emitting element 10 to drive the light emitting element 10 to emit light. Figure 2-Figure 4 As shown, unlike the related art in which the pixel driving circuit 20 is completely formed in the driving substrate 30, in the embodiment of the present invention, at least part of the circuit structure of the pixel driving circuit 20 can be set in the driving device 40, that is, at least part of the circuit structure of the pixel driving circuit 20 is moved to the driving device 40 on the first surface 30A of the driving substrate, and part of the circuit structure of the pixel driving circuit 20 is retained in the driving substrate 30.
[0040] For the same pixel driving circuit 20, there may be circuit structures located in the driving substrate 30 and the driving device 40 at the same time, and the circuit structure located in the driving substrate 30 is electrically connected to the circuit structure located in the driving device 40 to ensure normal transmission of signals in the pixel driving circuit 20. Among them, the side of the driving device 40 facing the driving substrate 30 may include a plurality of auxiliary conductive parts 400, and the side of the driving substrate 30 close to the driving device 40 may include a plurality of driving device connecting parts 301, and the auxiliary conductive parts 400 are electrically connected to the driving device connecting parts 301, so as to realize electrical connection between the circuit structure in the driving device 40 and the circuit structure in the driving substrate 30.
[0041] Under this configuration, it can be understood that part of the structure of the pixel driving circuit 20 originally set in the driving substrate 30 is moved to the driving device 40 outside the driving substrate 30, thereby reducing the number of components and wiring structures in the driving substrate 30. Canceling the relevant processes of some film layers in the driving substrate 30 is conducive to reducing the number of masks and simplifying the mask process when preparing the driving substrate 30, thereby greatly reducing the manufacturing cost and manufacturing difficulty of the driving substrate 30. In addition, it can also provide a larger layout space for the pixel driving circuit 20 structure in the driving substrate 30, reducing the difficulty of wiring in the driving substrate 30.
[0042] The light emitting element 10 includes a micro light emitting diode (Micro-LED). Micro-LED is a highly miniaturized LED technology that can achieve high pixel density and high resolution by arraying and miniaturizing traditional LEDs and transferring them to the driving substrate 30. Of course, the light emitting element 10 is not limited to micro light emitting diodes, but can also be Mini-LED or Nano-LED, etc., which will not be listed one by one in the embodiments of the present invention.
[0043] In addition, the embodiment of the present invention does not limit which structures in the pixel driving circuit 20 are located in the driving device 40 and which structures are located in the driving substrate 30 , and those skilled in the art may set them according to actual needs.
[0044] Optionally, the display panel may further include film layers such as a color resist layer (not shown in the drawings) and an encapsulation layer (not shown in the drawings), and the color resist layer may include a plurality of light shielding structures, and the light shielding structure is located between two adjacent light emitting elements 10, that is, the light shielding structure may fill the gap between two adjacent light emitting elements 10. The light shielding structure plays a light shielding role to prevent light from crosstalk. In addition, the light shielding structure may also fill the gap between the light emitting element 10 and the driving device 40.
[0045] The encapsulation layer is located on the side of the color resist layer away from the driving substrate 30, and the encapsulation layer can cover the color resist layer, the light emitting element 10 and the driving device 40. The encapsulation layer can effectively protect the light emitting element 10 and the driving device 40 from interference and damage from the external environment, and extend the service life of the two. By selecting suitable materials and structures for encapsulation, the light emitted by the light emitting element 10 can also be made more uniform, and the optical performance indicators such as brightness and color purity can be improved, thereby improving the display effect.
[0046] The display panel provided in the embodiment of the present invention may further include any film layer structure known to those skilled in the art, which is not limited in the embodiment of the present invention.
[0047] The display panel provided by the embodiment of the present invention includes a light-emitting element and a pixel driving circuit, wherein the pixel driving circuit is electrically connected to the light-emitting element; the display panel also includes a driving substrate and a driving device, wherein at least part of the driving device and the light-emitting element are located on the same side of the driving substrate, the driving device includes at least part of the structure of the pixel driving circuit, and the driving substrate includes at least part of the structure of the pixel driving circuit. By setting at least part of the structure in the pixel driving circuit in the driving device, the number of components and wiring structures in the driving substrate can be reduced, thereby eliminating the related processes of some film layers in the driving substrate, which is beneficial to reducing the number of masks when preparing the driving substrate, simplifying the mask process, and greatly reducing the manufacturing cost and difficulty of the driving substrate. In addition, it can also provide a larger layout space for the pixel driving circuit structure in the driving substrate, reducing the difficulty of wiring in the driving substrate.
[0048] Optionally, in a possible embodiment, the pixel driving circuit includes an active part and a passive part, at least part of the active part is located in the driving device, and at least part of the passive part is located in the driving substrate.
[0049] The active part refers to the part that requires external energy input to work normally. The active part can convert the energy form and play the role of providing energy and driving signals in the circuit; the passive part refers to the part that can work normally without external energy input. The passive part plays the role of transmitting signals, storing energy and adjusting circuit parameters in the circuit.
[0050] In this embodiment, the driving device may include at least part of the active part, and the driving substrate may include at least part of the passive part, so that the positions are divided according to the types of each structure of the pixel driving circuit, so that a larger number of active parts are concentrated in the driving device, and a larger number of passive parts are concentrated in the driving substrate.
[0051] Exemplarily, in some embodiments, the active part of the pixel driving circuit can be entirely disposed in the driving device, and the passive part can be entirely disposed in the driving substrate, thereby optimizing the structural layout in the pixel driving circuit and avoiding mutual interference between the active part and the passive part.
[0052] Further optionally, the active part includes a transistor or a semiconductor element, and the passive part includes a signal line or a capacitor.
[0053] The active part may also be referred to as an active component, including but not limited to semiconductor components such as transistors, diodes or triodes, and the passive part includes but not limited to passive components such as capacitors, resistors, and structures such as signal routing.
[0054] In several embodiments shown below, the passive part of the pixel driving circuit includes signal wiring and capacitors, and the signal wiring and capacitors are formed in the driving substrate.
[0055] For example, please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 The driving substrate 30 includes a base substrate 300 and a multi-layer metal layer 302 stacked on one side of the base substrate 300; the driving substrate 30 also includes a plurality of signal lines 303, the signal lines 303 include a plurality of first signal lines 3031 and a plurality of second signal lines 3032; the first signal lines 3031 include power supply voltage signal lines; at least part of the first signal lines 3031 are located in the metal layer 302 on the side of the metal layer 302 where the second signal lines 3032 are located away from the base substrate 300.
[0056] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the first signal line 3031 and the second signal line 3032 are signal lines for transmitting different types of voltage signals. At least part of the first signal line 3031 may include a power supply voltage signal line for transmitting a fixed voltage signal, and at least part of the second signal line 3032 may include a scanning signal line for transmitting a jump voltage signal. The first signal line 3031 is electrically connected to the driving device 40 and / or the light emitting element 10, and the second signal line 3032 may be electrically connected to the driving device 40.
[0057] like Figure 4 As shown, the present embodiment defines that at least part of the first signal lines 3031 are located in the same metal layer 302, at least part of the second signal lines 3032 are located in the same metal layer 302, and at least part of the first signal lines 3031 and at least part of the second signal lines 3032 are located in different metal layers 302. In this way, the signal lines 303 for transmitting different types of signals can be located in different metal layers 302, thereby avoiding interference between signals.
[0058] Furthermore, the present embodiment also proposes that at least part of the metal layer 302 where the first signal line 3031 is located is located on the side of the metal layer 302 where the second signal line 3032 is located away from the base substrate 300. In other words, at least part of the metal layer 302 where the first signal line 3031 is located is located in the metal layer 302 close to the light emitting element 10, and at least part of the metal layer 302 where the second signal line 3032 is located is located on the side of the metal layer 302 where the first signal line 3031 is located away from the light emitting element 10. Along the thickness direction Z of the driving substrate, at least part of the metal layer 302 where the first signal line 3031 is located is located between at least part of the metal layer 302 where the second signal line 3032 is located and the light emitting element 10.
[0059] Under this setting, signal crosstalk between the first signal line 3031 and the second signal line 3032 can be avoided to ensure accurate signal transmission. In addition, since part of the first signal line 3031 is electrically connected to the light-emitting element 10, the first signal line 3031 is set in the metal layer 302 on the side close to the light-emitting element 10, which can also reduce the difficulty of connecting the first signal line 3031 and the light-emitting element 10.
[0060] For example, please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 In some embodiments, the first signal line 3031 includes a first power supply voltage signal line PVDD and a second power supply voltage signal line PVEE, and the second signal line 3032 includes a first scan signal line S1, a second scan signal line S2, and a light emitting control signal line EM. The light emitting element 10 includes a first electrode 101, a second electrode 102, and a light emitting body 103 connected between the first electrode 101 and the second electrode 102. The driving device 40 may include elements such as transistors, and the driving device 40 may be electrically connected to the first electrode 101 of the light emitting element 10 through the auxiliary conductive portion 400, the driving device connecting portion 301, and a portion of the signal wiring 303.
[0061] The first power supply voltage signal line PVDD can be electrically connected to the driving device 40, and is used to transmit the first power supply voltage signal to the transistor in the driving device 40. The second power supply voltage signal line PVEE is electrically connected to the second electrode 102 of the light-emitting element 10, and is used to transmit the second power supply voltage signal to the light-emitting element 10. The first scanning signal line S1, the second scanning signal line S2 and the light-emitting control signal line EM are respectively electrically connected to the transistor in the driving device 40 to transmit the required scanning control signal to the corresponding transistor. The above-mentioned second signal line 3032 can be electrically connected to the corresponding circuit structure through the auxiliary conductive part 400 of the driving device 40. The circuit structure such as the transistor in the driving device 40 generates a driving current under the driving control of various signals. When the driving current is transmitted to the first electrode 101 and the second power supply voltage signal is transmitted to the second electrode 102, the light-emitting element 10 emits light.
[0062] For example, please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 In some embodiments, the multilayer metal layer 302 includes a first metal layer 3021, a second metal layer 3022, a third metal layer 3023 and a fourth metal layer 3024 stacked in sequence along the direction of the base substrate 300 pointing to the light-emitting element 10; the first scanning signal line S1, the second scanning signal line S2 and the light-emitting control signal line EM are located in the first metal layer 3021, the first power supply voltage signal line PVDD is located in the third metal layer 3023; the second power supply voltage signal line PVEE is located in the fourth metal layer 3024.
[0063] Figure 3 and Figure 4 In the illustrated embodiment, the driving substrate 30 includes four metal layers stacked in sequence, the first metal layer 3021 is close to the base substrate 300, and the fourth metal layer 3024 is close to the light emitting element 10. The first scanning signal line S1, the second scanning signal line S2, and the light emitting control signal line EM can be arranged in the first metal layer 3021, the first power supply voltage signal line PVDD can be arranged in the third metal layer 3023, and the second power supply voltage signal line PVEE can be arranged in the fourth metal layer 3024.
[0064] As described above, the second power supply voltage signal line PVEE is electrically connected to the light emitting element 10, and setting it in the fourth metal layer 3024 can reduce the difficulty of connecting the second power supply voltage signal line PVEE with the second electrode 102 of the light emitting element 10. Setting the first power supply voltage signal line PVDD and the second power supply voltage signal line PVEE in different film layers is conducive to reducing the number of wirings in the third metal layer 3023 and the fourth metal layer 3024, and reducing the difficulty of wiring.
[0065] You can continue to refer to Figure 4 The driving substrate 30 also includes a capacitor C, which includes a first electrode plate C1 and a second electrode plate C2 that are arranged opposite to each other. The first electrode plate C1 and the second electrode plate C2 can be arranged in any two metal layers among the four metal layers. Figure 4 As shown, the first electrode plate C1 is disposed on the first metal layer 3021 , and the second electrode plate C2 is disposed on the second metal layer 3022 , but the present invention is not limited thereto.
[0066] For example, Figure 5 A schematic diagram of the structure of another display panel provided by an embodiment of the present invention, Figure 6 for Figure 5 Schematic diagram of the cross-sectional structure along the B-B' direction, Figure 5 The following is a partial cross-sectional diagram of the display panel. Figure 5 and Figure 6 In other embodiments, the multilayer metal layer 302 includes a first metal layer 3021, a second metal layer 3022 and a third metal layer 3023 which are stacked in sequence along the direction of the base substrate 300 pointing to the light-emitting element 10; the first signal line 3031 includes a first power supply voltage signal line PVDD and a second power supply voltage signal line PVEE, and the second signal line 3032 includes a first scan signal line S1, a second scan signal line S2 and a light-emitting control signal line EM; the first scan signal line S1, the second scan signal line S2 and the light-emitting control signal line EM are located in the first metal layer 3021, and the first power supply voltage signal line PVDD is located in the second metal layer 3022; the second power supply voltage signal line PVEE is located in the third metal layer 3023.
[0067] Figure 5and Figure 6 In the illustrated embodiment, the driving substrate 30 includes three metal layers stacked in sequence, the first metal layer 3021 is close to the base substrate 300, and the third metal layer 3023 is close to the light emitting element 10. The first scanning signal line S1, the second scanning signal line S2, and the light emitting control signal line EM can be arranged in the first metal layer 3021, the first power supply voltage signal line PVDD can be arranged in the second metal layer 3022, and the second power supply voltage signal line PVEE can be arranged in the third metal layer 3023. In this embodiment, by reducing one metal layer 302, the thickness of the driving substrate 30 can be reduced to ensure that the display panel is light and thin.
[0068] Accordingly, Figure 5 and Figure 6 In the embodiment, the first plate C1 and the second plate C2 of the capacitor C can be arranged in any two metal layers of the three metal layers. Figure 5 As shown, the first electrode plate C1 is disposed on the first metal layer 3021 , and the second electrode plate C2 is disposed on the second metal layer 3022 , but the present invention is not limited thereto.
[0069] Figure 4 and Figure 5 In the illustrated embodiment, the driving substrate 30 only includes part of the signal lines 303 and the capacitor C in the pixel driving circuit 20 , and no transistor-related process is required, which can further reduce the manufacturing cost and process difficulty of the driving substrate 30 .
[0070] The film layers where the above-mentioned signal wirings 303 are located are only examples. In actual application, the positions of the film layers where the signal wirings 303 are located can be adjusted according to actual needs.
[0071] Optional, Figure 7 A schematic diagram of the structure of another display panel provided in an embodiment of the present invention can be referred to Figure 7 The driving substrate 30 also includes a plurality of side wirings 304, the side wirings 304 are close to the edge of the driving substrate 30, and the side wirings 304 are used to lead out the signal wirings 303 located in the display area, thereby binding the signal wirings 303 to a signal supply unit such as a driving chip (not shown in the figure). The side wirings 304 may be located in at least one metal layer 302 of the driving substrate 30, for example, in the first metal layer 3021 and / or the second metal layer 3022.
[0072] Further, in Figure 7In the illustrated embodiment, the driving substrate 30 also includes a binding pad 305, which is close to the edge of the driving substrate 30. Along the thickness direction Z of the driving substrate, the binding pad 305 is located on the side of the metal layer 302 where the side trace 304 is located away from the base substrate 300 and overlaps with the side trace 304. The binding pad 305 is electrically connected to the side trace 304, and the side trace 304 is electrically connected to the driving chip, etc. through the binding pad 305.
[0073] For example, the bonding pad 305 may be located at the fourth metal layer 3024 (corresponding to Figure 4 Alternatively, the bonding pad 305 may be located at the third metal layer 3023 (corresponding to Figure 5 Three-layer metal layer scheme shown).
[0074] Figure 8 A schematic diagram of the structure of another display panel provided by an embodiment of the present invention, Figure 8 In the illustrated embodiment, the driving substrate 30 includes a first surface 30A and a second surface 30B that are arranged opposite to each other, and a side surface connecting the first surface 30A and the second surface 30B. The first surface 30A is located between the second surface 30B and the light-emitting element 10, and the light-emitting element 10 and the driving device 40 are located on the first surface 30A. The side wiring 304 extends from the first surface 30A to the second surface 30B through the side surface, and is bound to a driving chip (not shown in the figure) on one side of the second surface 30B. In this way, a borderless display panel can be realized, and a large-size display device can be obtained by splicing multiple borderless display panels.
[0075] The side of the side wiring 304 facing away from the driving substrate 30 may further include a packaging structure, and the packaging structure covers the side wiring 304 to protect the side wiring 304 .

The second sub-driving device includes a circuit structure of a pixel driving circuit, and multiple second sub-driving devices are electrically connected to multiple light-emitting elements 10 in the second light-emitting unit 502 in a one-to-one correspondence.
[0109] You can continue to refer to Fig.10 or Fig.11 The display panel includes a plurality of light emitting units 50, and the light emitting units 50 include a plurality of light emitting elements 10 arranged along a first direction X; the first driving device 401 is located on one side of the corresponding light emitting unit 50 along a second direction Y, wherein the first direction X intersects with the second direction Y.
[0110] The light emitting unit 50 may refer to the first light emitting unit 501 or the second light emitting unit 502. A plurality of light emitting units 50 may be arranged in an array along a first direction X and a second direction Y. Fig.10 and Fig.11 Only one light-emitting unit 50 is shown in the figure, and it should be known that the display panel includes a plurality of light-emitting units 50 arranged in an array. The first direction X may be the row direction of the light-emitting unit 50, and the second direction Y may be the column direction of the light-emitting unit 50, but is not limited thereto. A plurality of light-emitting elements 10 of different colors in the same light-emitting unit 50 may be arranged along the first direction X. The first driving device 401 connected to the plurality of light-emitting elements 10 in the light-emitting unit 50 is located on one side of the light-emitting unit 50 along the second direction Y.
[0111] In this way, the distances between the first driving device 401 and the multiple light-emitting elements 10 electrically connected to it are relatively close, and the lengths of the connecting wires between the first driving device 401 and each light-emitting element 10 are relatively consistent, which can reduce the wiring difficulty and ensure the uniformity of the length of the driving current transmission path, thereby improving the uniformity of the luminous brightness of different light-emitting elements 10 in the same light-emitting unit 50.
[0112] For reference Figure 3 In some embodiments, the light emitting unit 50 may include a plurality of light emitting elements 10 arranged along the second direction Y, and the first driving device 401 may be located on one side of the corresponding light emitting unit 50 along the second direction Y. In this way, the arrangement of the light emitting element 10 and the first driving device 401 is relatively regular, which can reduce the difficulty of the alignment transfer of the light emitting element 10 and the driving device 40.
[0113] Optional, you can continue to refer to Fig.10 In a possible embodiment, the pixel driving circuit 20 includes an active part and a passive part, at least part of the active part is located in the first driving device 401, and at least part of the passive part is located in the driving substrate 30; in the orthographic projection figure of the plane where the driving substrate 30 is located, the first driving device 401 is located between the partial structure of the passive part and the light-emitting element 10.
[0114] Referring to the above description of the active part and the passive part, the active part includes semiconductor elements such as transistors, and the passive part includes structures such as capacitor C and signal wiring 303. In this embodiment, the position of the first driving device 401 is described. Fig.10As shown, the orthographic projection of the first driving device 401 on the plane where the driving substrate 30 is located is between the orthographic projection of the passive part of the structure and the orthographic projection of the light-emitting element 10 on the plane where the driving substrate 30 is located. In other words, in the orthographic projection figure of the plane where the driving substrate 30 is located, part of the active part of the pixel driving circuit 20 is located between part of the passive part and the light-emitting element 10.
[0115] Based on the connection relationship between the pixel driving circuit 20 and the light emitting element 10, in general, the active part in the pixel driving circuit 20 needs to be electrically connected to the light emitting element 10 and the passive part in the driving substrate 30. The orthographic projection of the first driving device 401 is set between the orthographic projection of the light emitting element 10 and the orthographic projection of part of the passive part, so that the spacing between the first driving device 401 and the light emitting element 10, and the spacing between the first driving device 401 and part of the passive part are relatively small, thereby reducing the difficulty of connecting the active part in the first driving device 401 with the light emitting element 10 and the passive part.
[0116] For example, continue to refer to Fig.10 , the passive part includes a capacitor C; in the orthographic projection diagram of the plane where the driving substrate 30 is located, the first driving device 401 is located between the capacitor C and the light-emitting element 10.
[0117] Since the capacitor C does not need to be directly electrically connected to the light emitting element 10, the orthographic projection of the capacitor C on the plane where the driving substrate 30 is located can be set to be located on the side of the orthographic projection of the first driving device 401 away from the orthographic projection of the light emitting element 10, ensuring that the distance between the first driving device 401 and the light emitting element 10 and the capacitor C is small.
[0118] You can continue to refer to Fig.10 In some embodiments, the passive portion may include a signal line 303 , and in an orthographic projection diagram on the plane where the driving substrate 30 is located, the first driving device 401 is located between a portion of the signal line 303 and the light emitting element 10 .
[0119] For example, Fig.10 As shown, the signal line 303 includes a first power supply voltage signal line PVDD. As described in the above embodiment, the first power supply voltage signal line PVDD is electrically connected to the first transistor in the first driving device 401 and the capacitor C in the driving substrate 30. It can be arranged in an orthographic projection pattern on the plane where the driving substrate 30 is located, the first driving device 401 is located between the first power supply voltage signal line PVDD and the light-emitting element 10, and the capacitor C is located between the first driving device 401 and the first power supply voltage signal line PVDD. Reduce the connection difficulty of each structure in the pixel driving circuit 20.
[0120] You can continue to refer to Fig.10 or Fig.11The display panel includes a plurality of light-emitting units 50, the light-emitting units 50 include a plurality of light-emitting elements 10 arranged along a first direction X; the display panel also includes a plurality of second signal line groups, the second signal line groups include a plurality of second signal lines 3032 extending along the first direction X and arranged along a second direction Y, wherein the first direction X intersects with the second direction Y; the orthographic projection of the first driving device 401 on the plane where the driving substrate 30 is located overlaps with the orthographic projection of the second signal line group on the plane where the driving substrate 30 is located.
[0121] The second signal line group may include a first scan signal line S1, a second scan signal line S2, and a light emitting control signal line EM for transmitting a jump voltage signal. As described above, the first scan signal line S1, the second scan signal line S2, and the light emitting control signal line EM may be located in the first metal layer 3021. The second signal line group may also include a signal routing line 303, such as a reset signal line Vref, which is also located in the first metal layer 3021, but is not limited thereto.
[0122] The second signal lines 3032 extend along the first direction X and are arranged along the second direction Y. The plurality of first driving devices 401 arranged along the first direction X can be electrically connected to the same first scan signal line S1, the same second scan signal line S2, the same light emitting control signal line EM and the same reset signal line Vref, respectively.
[0123] In combination with the connection relationship of the pixel driving circuit described above, the second signal lines 3032 are electrically connected to the plurality of transistors in the first driving device 401. Fig.10 or Fig.11 As shown, the orthographic projection of the first driving device 401 on the plane where the driving substrate 30 is located overlaps with the orthographic projection of at least part of the second signal lines 3032 in the second signal line group on the plane where the driving substrate 30 is located.

[0135] The passive driving substrate is usually composed of insulating materials and conductive materials, and a matrix structure is formed by a cathode and anode matrix. The manufacturing process of the passive driving substrate is relatively simple and the cost is low. In this embodiment, the driving substrate can be prepared by using a passive driving substrate, and the required pixel driving circuit structure is formed in the passive driving substrate by designing the signal routing layout in the passive driving substrate.

In this way, no capacitor needs to be arranged in the driving substrate 30, which can further simplify the manufacturing process of the driving substrate 30.
[0141] In this configuration, the driving device 40 includes a bare chip and a silicon-based capacitor, and the bare chip may include a transistor. The silicon-based capacitor is electrically connected to the transistor in the bare chip and a portion of the signal traces 303 in the driving substrate 30. The connection relationship and function of the silicon-based capacitor in the pixel driving circuit 20 are the same as those of the capacitor in the above embodiment, and will not be repeated here.
[0142] Furthermore, the bare chip and the silicon-based capacitor are electrically connected to the internal signal wiring 303 of the driving substrate 30 through different driving device connecting parts 301, and the silicon-based capacitor is electrically connected to the bare chip through the driving device connecting part 301 and the internal signal wiring 303 of the driving substrate 30. Since each pixel driving circuit includes a capacitor, the number of pixel driving circuits 20 is the number of silicon-based capacitors.

[0144] Here, the light emitting element 10 and the driver device 40 having the same height refer to the same height within the allowable range of process error. By setting the light emitting element 10 and the driver device 40 to have the same height, the light emitting element 10 and the driver device 40 can be transferred to the first surface 30A of the drive substrate 30 together in the same transfer process, thereby simplifying the transfer process.
[0145] Optional, Fig.14 A schematic diagram of the structure of another display panel provided in an embodiment of the present invention can be referred to Fig.14 The display panel may also include a first driving component 60 and a second driving component 70 located in the non-display area NA; the first driving component 60 is electrically connected to the first scanning signal line S1, the second scanning signal line S2 and the light-emitting control signal line EM, respectively, and the second driving component 70 is electrically connected to the data signal line Data, the first power supply voltage signal line (not shown in the figure) and the second power supply voltage signal line (not shown in the figure), respectively.

The power supply unit 703 is directly electrically connected to the first power supply voltage signal line and the second power supply voltage signal line, respectively, to provide the first power supply voltage signal and the second power supply voltage signal to the pixel driving circuit 20. In addition, the power supply unit 703 may also provide other power supply signals to the display panel, which is not repeated or limited in the embodiment of the present invention.

Thus, the connection line between the first sub-power supply unit 7031 and the first power supply voltage signal line (and the second power supply voltage signal line) and the connection line between the second sub-power supply unit 7032 and the first power supply voltage signal line (and the second power supply voltage signal line) are close to both sides of the display area AA along the first direction X, thereby reducing the interference of the connection line to the signal line (such as the data signal line Data) in the middle display area AA, and not interfering with the layout of other signal lines.
