Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to display technology, in particular to a display module. Background Art

[0002] Currently, if Figure 1 As shown, a high-resolution medium-to-large-sized TFT display screen 1' often needs to use multiple driver chips 11' for partitioned driving due to the large number of signal channels. Multiple driver chips 11' need to be connected to the terminal mainboard through the same circuit board 2'. The layout of the circuit board 2' includes a binding end 21', a component area 22' and a connection end 23' arranged in sequence. The internal wiring 24' of the circuit board 2' extends from the binding end 21' through the component area 22' to the connection end 23'. Some components such as resistors and capacitors are welded on the component area 22', which together with the internal wiring 24' form a complete circuit structure. Since there are multiple driver chips 11' on the display screen 1', the width of the binding end 21' of the circuit board 2' needs to be very large. In order to match the width of the binding end 21', the overall area of ​​the circuit board 2' is also very large, but the area of ​​the component area 22' and the connection end 23' is generally small, which results in a large number of blank areas 25' without wiring on both sides of the component area 22' and the connection end 23' of the circuit board 2', resulting in a waste of circuit board 2' materials. Utility Model Content
