[0050] Please refer to Figures 1 to 3 ; This embodiment provides a display module 1, and the display module 1 includes a display panel 11, a functional film layer 12, a flexible circuit board 13, a driving chip 14, a monitoring component 15, and a packaging structure 16; wherein, one end of the flexible circuit board 13 is electrically connected to the display panel 11, and the other end of the flexible circuit board 13 is electrically connected to the driving chip 14.
[0051] The display panel 11 may be a liquid crystal display panel (Liquid Crystal Display, LCD), and the display panel 11 includes a first substrate 11A and a second substrate 11B which are oppositely arranged, and a liquid crystal layer 11C located between the first substrate 11A and the second substrate 11B; wherein, the first substrate 11A and the second substrate 11B are sealed to form a liquid crystal cell to accommodate the liquid crystal layer 11C, and the liquid crystal layer 11C includes a plurality of liquid crystal molecules.
[0052] Specifically, the first substrate 11A may be an array substrate, the first substrate 11A includes a first electrode, the second substrate 11B may be a color filter substrate, the second substrate 11B includes a second electrode, and the liquid crystal layer 11C includes a plurality of liquid crystal molecules; wherein, when an image is displayed, the first electrode and the second electrode apply an electric field to the liquid crystal layer 11C, and by controlling the twist of the liquid crystal molecules in the liquid crystal layer 11C, the polarization direction of the light from the backlight source is changed, so as to control whether to allow the light intensity after passing through the liquid crystal cell, thereby displaying a corresponding image.
[0053] The first substrate 11A includes a bonding end 11D that is not covered by the second substrate 11B, a stepped sub-region 130 is formed on one side of the second substrate 11B and the first substrate 11A close to the flexible circuit board 13, the bonding end 11D is located in the stepped sub-region 130, and the bonding end 11D is electrically connected to the flexible circuit board 13 in the stepped sub-region 130.
[0054] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, the display panel 11 may adopt the Pad Bending technology, that is, after the flexible circuit board 13 is led out from the bonding end 11D of the display panel 11, it is bent along a set bending path to the back of the display panel 11 to optimize circuit connection and space utilization. This embodiment is described by taking this technical solution as an example, but it is not limited thereto. Other display panels with similar structures or functions may also apply the technical solution described in this application.
[0055] The functional film layer 12 includes a first polarizer 12A and a second polarizer 12B, and both the first polarizer 12A and the second polarizer 12B are disposed in contact with the surface of the display panel 11; specifically, the first polarizer 12A is disposed on the light-emitting side of the display panel 11, the second polarizer 12B is disposed on the backlight side of the display panel 11, and the polarization directions of the first polarizer 12A and the second polarizer 12B are perpendicular to each other to achieve polarization control.
[0056] The monitoring component 15 is disposed on one side of the display panel 11, and the monitoring component 15 is configured to obtain the pressure data of the display panel 11 based on the deformation amount of the display panel 11; the driving chip 14 is electrically connected to the monitoring component 15, and the driving chip 14 is used to receive the pressure data output by the monitoring component 15; wherein, the display panel 11 is configured in a dark state display mode, and the driving chip 14 is configured to output a grayscale voltage to the display panel 11 according to the pressure data of the monitoring component 15, so as to compensate the grayscale voltage of the stressed area of the display panel 11, reduce the light leakage phenomenon caused by the deformation of the display panel 11, improve the picture uniformity in the dark state display mode, and further enhance the display quality and visual experience of the display panel 11.
[0057] Specifically, the monitoring component 15 includes, but is not limited to, a piezoelectric sensor. The piezoelectric sensor works based on the piezoelectric effect. When the display panel 11 deforms due to an externally applied pressure, the internal charge distribution of the piezoelectric sensor changes, thereby generating pressure data proportional to the deformation amount. Since this conversion mechanism does not require an external power supply, it has the advantages of fast response speed and high sensitivity, and is suitable for real-time pressure monitoring of the display panel 11.
[0058] The pressure data output by the piezoelectric sensor can be transmitted to the driving chip 14 through the flexible circuit board 13. The driving chip 14 determines the light leakage amount of the display panel 11 under the current pressure according to the mapping relationship between the pressure data and the light leakage amount, and the driving chip 14 is configured to output a corresponding grayscale voltage to the display panel 11 according to the light leakage amount of the display panel 11 to compensate or correct the display abnormality caused by light leakage.
[0059] The mapping relationship between the pressure data and the light leakage amount satisfies: ΔLv = k1·F + c1; where F is the pressure data output by the piezoelectric sensor; ΔLv is the light leakage amount of the display panel; k1 is the proportionality coefficient of the change in the light leakage amount caused by the unit pressure change; c1 represents the reference light leakage amount when the pressure is zero.
[0060] It should be noted that in the process of establishing the mapping relationship, the following method can be adopted: during the assembly and testing process, use a pressure sensor to measure the pressure data F of the display panel under different applied pressures, and at the same time use an optical detection device (such as a light intensity meter) to synchronously measure the corresponding light leakage amount ΔLv; by collecting multiple groups of (F, ΔLv) data samples and substituting them into the linear model ΔLv = k1F + c1, use mathematical methods such as the least squares method to fit the specific values of the proportionality coefficient k1 and the reference light leakage amount c1.
[0061] It can be understood that through the above method, an accurate correspondence between the pressure data and the light leakage amount can be established, so that the driving chip 14 can accurately calculate and adjust the light leakage amount of the display panel 11 based on the detected pressure data.
[0062] Furthermore, the driving chip 14 is configured to output a corresponding gray-scale voltage to the display panel 11 according to the light leakage amount of the display panel 11 to compensate or correct the display abnormality caused by light leakage;
[0063] It should be noted that in this embodiment, the deviation (ΔLv) between the actual brightness of each first display sub-region (such as A1 to A3) and the corresponding preset gray-scale standard brightness (such as Lv0 to Lv20) is used as the compensation basis; where ΔLv satisfies the following relational expression:
[0064] ΔLv = L (实际亮度) -L (标准亮度) ; where L (实际亮度) represents the actual brightness of each first display sub-region in the current working state, and L (标准亮度) represents the preset standard brightness corresponding to the gray-scale of this first display sub-region; when ΔLv > 0, it indicates that the actual brightness is higher than the standard brightness, and the gray-scale voltage needs to be reduced for compensation; when ΔLv < 0, it indicates that the actual brightness is lower than the standard brightness, and the gray-scale voltage needs to be increased for compensation.
[0065] Specifically, to better understand this embodiment, the gray-scale voltage compensation method will be specifically described below. The compensation algorithm of the gray-scale voltage includes but is not limited to:
[0066] 1. In the low gray scale range (e.g., Lv0 to Lv10), the mapping relationship between the light leakage amount and the gray scale voltage of the display panel satisfies: Vcomp = Vx - k2·ΔLv; where Vcomp is the compensated gray scale voltage, Vx is the standard gray scale voltage without compensation corresponding to the standard gray scale, k2 is the compensation coefficient, and the compensation coefficient can be obtained through experimental calibration and is related to the characteristics of the display panel.
[0067] It can be understood that by reducing the gray scale voltage, the brightness of the first display sub-region is returned to the standard value, thereby effectively compensating for the brightness deviation caused by light leakage.
[0068] 2. In the high gray scale range (e.g., Lv10 to Lv20), the mapping relationship between the light leakage amount and the gray scale voltage of the display panel satisfies: Vcomp = Vx - α·k2·ΔLv; where Vcomp is the compensated gray scale voltage, Vx is the standard gray scale voltage without compensation corresponding to the standard gray scale, k2 is the compensation coefficient, α is the attenuation factor, and α ∈ [0.2, 0.5].
[0069] It can be understood that by introducing the attenuation factor α to reduce the compensation amplitude, it is possible to avoid the display inconsistency problem caused by excessive adjustment in the high gray scale region, thereby ensuring the uniformity and stability of the display effect under high gray scales.
[0070] Furthermore, taking the actual compensation situation of three first display sub-regions as an example, the specific example of the mapping relationship is shown in Table 1 below:
[0071] Table 1
[0072] Partition Light leakage amount △Lv(%) Target gray level Lv_x Vx(V) Vcomp(V) A1 +12 (High brightness) Lv5 3.2 2.9 (Reduced by 9.4%) A2 +8 Lv5 3.2 3.0 (Reduced by 6.3%) A3 -5 (Low brightness) Lv15 5.8 2.9 (Increased by 5.2%)
[0073] Among them, in Table 1, "+" indicates that the brightness is too high, and "-" indicates that the brightness is too low. The driving chip 14 determines the light leakage amount ΔLv of the display panel 11 under the current pressure according to the mapping relationship between the pressure data and the light leakage amount. The target gray scale Lv_x is the standard gray scale level set according to the display design requirements. The original gray scale voltage Vx is the gray scale voltage set corresponding to Lv_x under standard conditions. The compensated voltage Vcomp is calculated according to the above gray scale voltage compensation algorithm; among them, the compensation amplitude is the ratio of the voltage change, usually expressed in percentage, and is used to quantify the compensation effect.
[0074] It should be noted that the original gray scale voltage Vx refers to the standard gray scale voltage value preset to make the display panel 11 reach the designed brightness corresponding to the target gray scale Lv_x under the conditions of no external pressure, no abnormal light leakage, and in a standard environment (including standard temperature and standard humidity). The original gray scale voltage Vx can be determined through the brightness calibration process when the display panel leaves the factory, and this embodiment will not elaborate on this.
[0075] In practical applications, the driving chip 14 can preset the compensation parameters for different sub-regions, and during the display process, dynamically adjust the gray-scale voltage of the corresponding sub-regions in real time according to the light leakage measured by the pressure sensor, so as to achieve fine-grained optimization of brightness uniformity and improve the consistency and display quality of the overall display panel.
[0076] Furthermore, as Figure 4 shown, if the light leakage in a certain area is high, the driving chip 14 will record the sub-pixel coordinates and pressure gradient distribution of this area by analyzing the real-time pressure data in the Nth frame. In the (N + 1)th frame, based on the dynamic compensation algorithm, an adaptive gray-scale voltage adjustment will be applied to the light-leakage area, specifically by reducing the driving voltage amplitude of the corresponding sub-pixels and shortening the effective light-emitting time through timing control, so as to reduce local brightness overflow while maintaining color consistency, reduce the brightness to balance the overall display, and thus compensate for the light leakage of the display panel 11.
[0077] Furthermore, when the display panel 11 is subjected to external pressure, the display panel 11 deforms, the thickness of the liquid crystal layer 11C changes, which affects the orientation of the liquid crystal molecules, resulting in abnormal light transmittance of the display panel 11; specifically, when the display panel 11 is configured in a dark-state display mode and the display panel 11 is subjected to external pressure, the light emitted by the backlight source cannot be completely blocked, and part of the light will generate a phase difference when passing through the first substrate 11A and the second substrate 11B, resulting in a relatively obvious light-leakage phenomenon; it can be understood that in this embodiment, the monitoring component 15 is configured to obtain the pressure data of the display panel 11 based on the deformation amount of the display panel 11, convert the pressure data into an electrical signal and transmit it to the driving chip 14, the driving chip 14 receives the pressure data electrical signal, obtains the light leakage amount of the display panel 11, and can perform gray-scale voltage compensation on the display panel 11 according to the magnitude of the light leakage amount.
[0078] The shape of the encapsulation structure 16 matches the shape of the functional film layer 12. The encapsulation structure 16 can be attached to the side of the functional film layer 12 away from the display panel 11 through an optically clear adhesive 17 (Optically Clear Adhesive, OCA) to ensure high light transmittance and excellent bonding performance; specifically, the encapsulation structure 16 includes, but is not limited to, a cover glass (Cover Glass, CG) to provide protection against the external environment and prevent moisture and oxygen from invading the functional film layer 12, thereby improving the reliability and service life of the display panel 11.
[0079] Please continue to combine Figures 1 to 3; In one embodiment, the display module 1 includes a display area 100 and a non-display area 200 disposed around the display area 100. The non-display area 200 includes a first non-display sub-area 210 and a second non-display sub-area 220 disposed opposite to each other in a first direction X, and a third non-display sub-area 230 and a fourth non-display sub-area 240 disposed opposite to each other in a second direction Y.
[0080] The monitoring component 15 is disposed between the first polarizer 12A and the optical transparent adhesive 17, and the optical transparent adhesive 17 covers the monitoring component 15, so as to fill the height difference between the monitoring component 15 and the first polarizer 12A by using the optical transparent adhesive 17, eliminating the optical path distortion caused by the height difference; at the same time, improving the flatness of the display panel 11, reducing the spacing fluctuation between the monitoring component 15 and the encapsulation structure 16, and improving the accuracy of strain detection.
[0081] The monitoring component 15 is located in at least one of the first non-display sub-area 210, the second non-display sub-area 220, the third non-display sub-area 230, and the fourth non-display sub-area 240, so as to be able to monitor the pressure changes in different edge areas of the display panel 11 in real time, accurately identify the stress position, and adjust the gray-scale voltage of the corresponding area according to the strain, reducing the light leakage phenomenon caused by stress, and improving the picture uniformity and display quality in the dark display mode.
[0082] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, the X direction in Figure 2 and Figure 3 is taken as the first direction, and the Y direction is taken as the second direction as an example to illustrate the technical means of this embodiment.
[0083] Specifically, the monitoring component 15 is disposed in the non-display area 200, so that the monitoring component 15 does not affect the light transmittance and display uniformity of the display area 100, ensuring the integrity of the display area 100; in addition, since the non-display area 200 does not include structures such as pixels, electrodes, or liquid crystal molecules, the monitoring component 15 can directly and stably sense the deformation of the display panel 11, thereby improving the detection accuracy of the monitoring component 15 for the strain.
[0084] Further, the flexible circuit board 13 is disposed between the monitoring component 15 and the driving chip 14. The monitoring component 15 is located within the first non-display sub-region 210, and the flexible circuit board 13 is disposed close to the first non-display sub-region 210. One side of the flexible circuit board 13 is electrically connected to the monitoring component 15, and the other side of the flexible circuit board 13 is electrically connected to the driving chip 14. Through the concealed layout of the non-display area 200, the monitoring component 15 can continuously detect local pressure or deformation data of the display panel 11, and through the fast response ability of the driving chip 14, it can real-time analyze the change trend of the light leakage amount of the display panel 11 (such as the backlight non-uniformity caused by pressure in the edge area), so as to dynamically adjust the pixel driving signal, achieve precise optical compensation, and avoid the deterioration of the light leakage problem due to external force. At the same time, by disposing the monitoring component 15 on the side of the display panel 11 close to the flexible circuit board 13, the signal transmission path length can be reduced, signal attenuation and interference can be reduced, and the real-time feedback speed of pressure data can be improved.
[0085] It should be noted that the monitoring component 15 being disposed between the first polarizer 12A and the optical transparent adhesive 17, and the monitoring component 15 being located within the first non-display sub-region 210 are only for illustrative purposes. In another embodiment, for example Figure 5 As shown, the monitoring component 15 is disposed on the side of the second polarizer 12B away from the display panel 11, and the second polarizer 12B and the monitoring component 15 can be seamlessly bonded through an optical adhesive, so as to achieve a compact spatial layout.
[0086] Further, the display area 100 includes a plurality of first display sub-regions 110, and the plurality of first display sub-regions 110 are located on the side of the display area 100 close to the non-display area 200. The monitoring component 15 includes a plurality of first monitoring modules 15A, and one first monitoring module 15A corresponds to one first display sub-region 110.
[0087] Wherein, the display panel 11 is configured in a dark state display mode. Any first monitoring module 15A transmits the pressure data of the display panel 11 obtained by it to the driving chip 14, and the driving chip 14 is configured to output a corresponding gray-scale voltage to the first display sub-region 110 corresponding to the first monitoring module 15A according to the pressure data of the first monitoring module 15A, so as to compensate for the local light leakage of the display panel 11.
[0088] Specifically, the display area 100 includes a plurality of first display sub-areas 110, and the plurality of first display sub-areas 110 are distributed on one side of the display area 100 close to the non-display area 200. Each first display sub-area 110 is provided with a corresponding first monitoring module 15A; wherein, the first monitoring module 15A includes, but is not limited to, a piezoelectric sensor. The first monitoring module 15A is located within the non-display area 200, and the first monitoring component 15 is physically adjacent to the corresponding first display sub-area 110.
[0089] When an external force is applied to the area of the display panel 11 where the first monitoring module 15A is provided, the display panel 11 is deformed. The first monitoring module 15A is configured to obtain the pressure data of the display panel 11 based on the amount of deformation of the display panel 11, and convert the pressure data into an electrical signal and transmit it to the driving chip 14. The driving chip 14 receives the pressure data output by the first monitoring module 15A to obtain the light leakage amount of the display panel 11 in the first display sub-area 110, and the driving chip 14 is configured to output a corresponding gray-scale voltage to the first display sub-area 110 corresponding to the first monitoring module 15A according to the light leakage amount of the display panel 11, so as to achieve light leakage compensation for the display panel 11.
[0090] It can be understood that in this embodiment, the edge of the display area 100 is divided into a plurality of independent first display sub-areas 110, and each first display sub-area 110 is provided with a corresponding first monitoring module 15A. The first monitoring module 15A is located within the non-display area 200, so that the light leakage or deformation area of the display panel 11 can be accurately located, avoiding interference of touch operations or display signals on pressure detection; at the same time, the driving chip 14 is configured to obtain the light leakage amount of the display panel 11 in each first display sub-area 110 according to the pressure data electrical signals output by each first monitoring module 15A, and the driving chip 14 is configured to output independent gray-scale voltages to each first display sub-area 110 according to the light leakage amount of the display panel 11 in each first display sub-area 110, so as to achieve local light leakage compensation for the display panel 11.
[0091] Please combine Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 6; In one embodiment, the multiple first display sub - regions 110 are arranged around the non - display region 200, and the multiple first monitoring modules 15A are arranged around the display region 100; wherein, the display module 1 includes multiple first connection lines 18 arranged at intervals, the first connection lines 18 are located within the non - display region 200, one first connection line 18 corresponds to one first monitoring module 15A, and one first monitoring module 15A is electrically connected to the driving chip 14 through one first connection line 18, so as to realize independent detection and signal transmission of the deformation amounts of different regions of the display panel 11, reduce signal interference, improve the accuracy and response speed of pressure data, and further improve the light leakage positioning accuracy, and maintain the stability and uniformity of the display panel 11.
[0092] Specifically, the multiple first display sub - regions 110 surround the edge of the non - display region 200 in a circular shape, the multiple first monitoring modules 15A are located within the first non - display sub - region 210, the second non - display sub - region 220, the third non - display sub - region 230, and the fourth non - display sub - region 240, and the multiple first monitoring modules 15A are arranged around the display region 100 in a circular arrangement. Each first monitoring module 15A is electrically connected to one end of the flexible circuit board 13 through an independent first connection line 18, and the other end of the flexible circuit board 13 is electrically connected to the driving chip 14, so as to ensure that each first monitoring module 15A can independently collect the pressure data of the corresponding region, and transmit it to the flexible circuit board 13 through the independent first connection line 18, and then transmitted to the driving chip 14 by the flexible circuit board 13, improving the stability and accuracy of data transmission.
[0093] It can be understood that, compared with setting the first monitoring module 15A on one side, in this embodiment, by arranging the multiple first display sub - regions 110 around the non - display region 200 and arranging the multiple first monitoring modules 15A around the display region 100, the pressure changes in different regions of the display panel 11 can be monitored in real time, and the pressure data is transmitted to the driving chip 14 through the independent first connection line 18, so that the driving chip 14 adjusts the gray - scale voltage for the stressed region, thereby effectively suppressing the light leakage phenomenon caused by the deformation of the display panel 11, improving the display uniformity, avoiding signal cross - interference at the same time, reducing the wiring complexity, and improving the reliability and detection accuracy of the display module 1.
[0094] Furthermore, the distance between two adjacent first monitoring modules 15A is greater than or equal to 1 mm and less than or equal to 10 mm. By controlling the distance between two adjacent first monitoring modules 15A, when the display panel 11 is deformed, fine monitoring of the deformation amount can be achieved, making the acquisition of pressure data more accurate, avoiding signal interference and increased wiring complexity caused by too high a density of the first monitoring modules 15A, thereby improving the stability and reliability of the detection system; at the same time, avoiding collision and friction between two adjacent first monitoring modules 15A due to being too close, which affects the stability and service life of the monitoring component 15.
[0095] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 7 ; In one embodiment, the display area 100 includes a plurality of second display sub-areas 120, and the second display sub-areas 120 are located on the side of the first display sub-area 110 away from the non-display area 200; the monitoring component 15 includes a plurality of second monitoring modules 15B, and one second monitoring module 15B is correspondingly arranged in one second display sub-area 120. The second monitoring module is configured to obtain the pressure data of the display panel 11 based on the deformation amount of the display panel 11; wherein, the display panel 11 is configured in a dark state display mode, and the driving chip 14 is configured to output a corresponding gray-scale voltage to the second display sub-area 120 corresponding to the second monitoring module 15B according to the pressure data of the second monitoring module 15B, so as to realize independent gray-scale adjustment of the second display sub-area 120, and enable the display panel 11 to dynamically adjust the display effect based on the pressure data in the second display sub-area 120 in the dark state display mode.
[0096] Specifically, the second monitoring module 15B includes, but is not limited to, a transparent piezoelectric sensor; the display panel 11 is configured in a dark state display mode. By arranging one second monitoring module 15B in one second display sub-area 120, the second monitoring module 15B can sense the pressure change in the second display sub-area 120 corresponding to it; any second monitoring module 15B sends the pressure data of the display panel 11 it obtains to the driving chip 14, and the driving chip 14 is configured to obtain the light leakage amount of the display panel 11 in each second display sub-area 120 according to the pressure data electrical signals output by each first monitoring module 15A, and the driving chip 14 is configured to output an independent gray-scale voltage to each second display sub-area 120 according to the light leakage amount of the display panel 11 in each second display sub-area 120, so as to realize light leakage compensation of the display panel 11 in the second display sub-area 120.
[0097] The area of the second monitoring module 15B is larger than that of the first monitoring module 15A, thereby improving the reliability and detection accuracy of the display panel 11 within the display area 200; it can be understood that since the multiple second monitoring modules 15B work independently and respectively correspond to their respective second display sub-areas 120, the driving chip 14 can perform grayscale adjustment on each of the second display sub-areas 120 separately, avoiding errors caused by overall adjustment and improving the accuracy of deformation amount detection.
[0098] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 8 ; In one embodiment, one second monitoring module 15B is also correspondingly arranged within one first display sub-area 110, and the second monitoring module is configured to obtain the pressure data of the display panel 11 based on the deformation amount of the display panel 11; wherein, the display panel 11 is configured in a dark display mode, and the driving chip 14 is configured to output corresponding grayscale voltages into the first display sub-area 110 corresponding to the second monitoring module 15B according to the pressure data of the second monitoring module 15B, thereby realizing independent grayscale adjustment of the first display sub-area 110, so that the display panel 11 can dynamically adjust the display effect based on the pressure data within the second display sub-area 120 in the dark display mode.
[0099] It should be noted that in this embodiment, the second monitoring module 15B is located within the first display sub-area 110 and the second monitoring module 15B is located within the second display sub-area 120, that is, within one first display sub-area 110 and one second display sub-area 120, one second monitoring module 15B is respectively arranged.
[0100] Specifically, the display panel 11 is configured in a dark display mode. By arranging one second monitoring module 15B within one first display sub-area 110, the second monitoring module 15B can sense the pressure change within the first display sub-area 110 corresponding to it; any second monitoring module 15B sends the pressure data of the display panel 11 obtained by it to the driving chip 14, and the driving chip 14 is configured to obtain the light leakage amount of the display panel 11 within each first display sub-area 110 according to the pressure data electrical signals output by each second monitoring module 15B, and the driving chip 14 is configured to output independent grayscale voltages to each first display sub-area 110 according to the light leakage amount of the display panel 11 within each first display sub-area 110, thereby realizing light leakage compensation of the display panel 11 within the first display sub-area 110.
[0101] It can be understood that the second monitoring module 15B and the first monitoring module 15A work together, enabling the monitoring component 15 to more accurately sense the pressure distribution in the first display sub-region 110, and dynamically adjusting the grayscale voltage of each first display sub-region 110 based on real-time data to achieve independent grayscale compensation for local regions; wherein, the first monitoring module 15A is used to monitor the deformation amount of the display panel 11 in the non-display region 200, and the second monitoring module 15B is used to directly monitor the pressure change inside the first display sub-region 110. The combination of the two enables the driving chip 14 to comprehensively analyze the pressure data, thereby further optimizing the light leakage compensation of the display panel 11 in the dark display mode.
[0102] Furthermore, the display module 1 includes a plurality of second connection lines 19 arranged at intervals, and the second connection lines 19 are located in the display region 100. One second connection line 19 corresponds to one second monitoring module 15B, and one second monitoring module 15B is electrically connected to the driving chip 14 through one second connection line 19; wherein, the display region 100 further includes a plurality of sub-pixels 10. A plurality of sub-pixels 10 along the first direction X form sub-pixel 10 rows, and a plurality of sub-pixels 10 along the second direction Y form sub-pixel 10 columns. The second connection lines 19 are located between adjacent sub-pixel 10 rows and / or between adjacent sub-pixel 10 columns, thereby improving the stability of signal transmission, and the second connection lines 19 do not occupy the openings of the sub-pixels 10, increasing the aperture ratio and maintaining a high-quality display effect; at the same time, reducing the occlusion of the display region 100 by the second connection lines 19 and avoiding affecting the effective light-emitting area of the sub-pixels 10.
[0103] It can be understood that in this embodiment, by arranging the second connection lines 19 between adjacent sub-pixel 10 rows and / or between adjacent sub-pixel 10 columns, the second connection lines 19 do not occupy the openings of the sub-pixels 10, increasing the aperture ratio and maintaining a high-quality display effect; at the same time, it can also reduce signal interference and parasitic capacitance effects, improving the stability and anti-interference ability of data transmission.
