Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of display screen technology, and in particular to a display screen module with a flip-chip thin film shielding structure. Background Technology
[0002] Electronic products, especially portable devices, are increasingly adopting thinner and smaller designs. Therefore, new materials and assembly technologies are constantly emerging. COF (Chip On Flex, or Chip On Film), often referred to as flip-chip film, is a die-on-film packaging technology that fixes integrated circuits (ICs) onto flexible circuit boards. It uses a flexible attached circuit board as a chip carrier to combine the chip with the flexible substrate circuitry. Alternatively, it can refer specifically to a flexible attached circuit board without packaged chips. This includes tape-and-roll packaging (TAB substrate, its process is called TCP), flexible board-to-chip assembly, and flexible IC carrier board packaging. It is particularly suitable for small-sized panels such as LCD modules in mobile phones or PDAs.
[0003] FPCs with COF need to be soldered onto PCBs. During assembly, one end of the FPC is electrically connected to the display module, and the other end is soldered onto the PCB. A clearance slot needs to be reserved between the display screen and the PCB to avoid the IC. The clearance slot structure in the existing technology occupies a large space and is complex, and the COF is easily affected by interference.
[0004] For example, Chinese utility model patent (CN209460526U) discloses a liquid crystal display screen, including a front frame, an open-circuit (OC), an inner frame, a backlight assembly, and a rear shell arranged sequentially from top to bottom. The inner frame includes a border and an eaves portion that bends inward from the upper edge of the border. An upwardly extending baffle is provided at the junction of the border and the eaves portion, and a slot is provided on the inner side of the eaves portion inside the baffle. A circuit board is connected to the edge of the glass side of the OC via a core-on-frame (COF). The COF can bypass the inner frame to fix the circuit board to the lower end face of the rear shell. The border has a clearance groove through which the COF passes. Although this patent uses the front frame, the inner frame, and the rear shell to sandwich the OC and the backlight assembly in the middle, and includes rubber pads and rubber strips inside, which can provide both stability and cushioning, the structure is complex, assembly is cumbersome, and it is not conducive to improving the anti-interference performance of the COF.

[0040] It should be noted that similar labels and letters in the following figures indicate similar items. Therefore, once an item is defined in one figure, it does not need to be further defined and explained in subsequent figures.
[0041] Example 1
[0042] Please refer to Figures 1-6 This embodiment provides a display module with a flip-chip thin-film shielding structure, comprising a display module 1, a backlight module 4, and a PCB board 3. The display module 1 is embedded in the front of the backlight module 4, and the PCB board 3 is placed on the back of the backlight module 4. Further, the display module also includes a flexible circuit board 2, which extends from the bottom of the display module 1, and the backlight module 4 is fixed to the PCB board 3. Further, a flexible backlight circuit board (not shown in the figure) extends from the bottom of the backlight module 4 and is soldered to the flexible circuit board 2.
[0043] Furthermore, the display module 1 includes, from top to bottom, an upper polarizer 11, an upper glass sheet 12, a lower glass sheet 13, and a lower polarizer 14 stacked sequentially. Liquid crystal material is disposed between the upper glass sheet 12 and the lower glass sheet 13. The lower glass sheet 14 is larger than the upper glass sheet 12 and its bottom protrudes from the upper glass sheet 12. Specifically, the bottom of the lower glass sheet 14 protrudes from the upper glass sheet 12 and is connected to the flexible circuit board 2.
[0044] Furthermore, the flexible circuit board 2 includes a flip-chip film 21 and gold fingers 22. The flip-chip film 21 contains a control IC, and the gold fingers 22 are located at the end of the flexible circuit board 2. Specifically, one end of the flexible circuit board 2 is connected to the lower glass sheet 13 of the display module 1 and then bent to the back of the backlight module 4. The gold fingers 22 at the end of the flexible circuit board 2 are soldered to the PCB board 3. After the flexible circuit board 2 and the PCB board 3 are electrically connected, the control of the display module is realized.
[0045] Furthermore, the flip-chip film 21 is bent together with the flexible circuit board 2 to the back of the backlight module 4 and corresponds to the position where the bottom of the lower glass sheet 14 protrudes from the upper glass sheet 12.
[0046] Furthermore, the back of the backlight module 4 and the PCB board 3 are provided with double-sided foam adhesive 5. The display module is fixed to the front of the PCB board 3 by the double-sided foam adhesive 5. During assembly, the flexible circuit board 2 is led out from the bottom of the display module 1 and bent to the back of the backlight module 4, and the gold fingers 22 are soldered to the PCB board 3. Then, the PCB board 3 with the gold fingers 22 of the soldered flexible circuit board 2 is pasted to the back of the backlight module 4 using double-sided foam adhesive 5.
[0047] Furthermore, the lower end of the PCB board 3 is provided with a clearance area 33 corresponding to the position of the flip-chip film 21. The clearance area 33 is a rectangular through hole. When the backlight module 4 and the PCB board 3 are pasted and fixed, the flip-chip film 21 is precisely embedded in the clearance area 33 of the PCB board 3.
[0048] Furthermore, such as Figure 5 and 6 As shown, the PCB board 3 also has a shielding structure for the flip-chip film 21, which shields the flip-chip film 21 and protects the IC. The shielding structure covers the side of the PCB board 3 away from the backlight module 4, corresponding to the void area 33. Furthermore, the shielding structure is a copper foil 35, which is adhered to the edges around the void area 33. The copper foil 35 effectively blocks the propagation of electromagnetic waves, improving the stability and reliability of the flip-chip film 21.
[0049] Specifically, a GND copper leakage area 34 is provided around the perimeter of the clearance area 33. Conductive adhesive is provided on the side of the copper foil 35 corresponding to the flip-chip film. The copper foil 35 is adhered to the GND copper leakage area 34 using the conductive adhesive, initially fixing the copper foil 35 to the PCB board 3. Then, a solder 36 is placed on each of the four sides of the copper foil 35 to further reinforce it. Specifically, copper leakage protrusions 341 are provided on the four sides of the GND copper leakage area 34. The solder 36 is placed at the corresponding positions of the copper leakage protrusions 341 to fix the copper foil 35 to the GND copper leakage area 34. Each solder 36 simultaneously covers the inner edge of the copper leakage protrusion 341 and the outer edge of the copper foil 35.
[0050] Furthermore, the thickness of the copper foil 35 is 0.12 to 0.18 mm, and the thickness of the copper foil 35 includes the thickness of the conductive adhesive. Preferably, in this embodiment, the thickness of the copper foil 35 is 0.15 mm.
[0051] Furthermore, the back side of the PCB board 3 also includes a component area 31 for mounting and fixing various electronic components, as well as connecting pins 32.
[0052] The assembly process of the display module with a flip-chip thin-film shielding structure provided by this utility model is as follows:
[0053] The display module 1 is embedded on the front of the backlight module 4, and the PCB board 3 is placed on the back of the backlight module 4. One end of the flexible circuit board 2 is soldered to the bottom end of the upper glass plate 12. Then, the flexible circuit board 2 is bent towards the back of the backlight module 4. The gold fingers 22 at the end of the flexible circuit board 2 are soldered to the PCB board 3. The PCB board 3 with the flexible circuit board 2 soldered on is pasted to the back of the backlight module 4 with double-sided foam adhesive 5. At this time, the flip-chip film 21 corresponds to the clearance area of the PCB board 3. The copper foil 35 is pasted to the GND copper leakage area 34 with the conductive adhesive on the side facing the flip-chip film 21. The copper foil 35 is initially fixed to the PCB board 3. Then, the solder 36 is placed at the position corresponding to the copper leakage protrusion 341 to fix the copper foil 35 to the GND copper leakage area 34. By adding a simple shielding structure, the control IC built into the flip-chip film 21 is prevented from being interfered with by the outside.
