Referring to Figures 1 and 2, the driving backplane 100 includes a display area AA and a non-display area BA located on one side of the display area AA. Multiple sub-pixels SP are arranged in an array within the display area AA. For example, the multiple sub-pixels SP are arranged sequentially in a first direction X and sequentially in a second direction Y. The first direction X and the second direction Y are different.

[0072] The drive backplane 100 also includes a third planarization layer 19 and a barrier 92. The material of the third planarization layer 19 includes an organic material. The third planarization layer 19 covers the sixth conductive layer 90 and the second planarization layer 18, and the third planarization layer 19 has an opening 191 at the position corresponding to the first electrode 91, the opening 191 exposing a portion of the first electrode 91. The barrier 92 is disposed on the third planarization layer 19 and is located around the opening 191.
[0073] Referring to Figure 3, alternating first fan-out traces 32 and second fan-out traces 52 are provided in the fan-out area SA. The first fan-out trace 32 is located in at least one of the first conductive layer 30 and the second conductive layer 50, and the second fan-out trace 52 is located in at least one of the second conductive layer 50 and the third conductive layer 60. The first fan-out trace 32 and the second fan-out trace 52 are located in different layers, and the impedance of the first fan-out trace 32 and the second fan-out trace 52 is the same to improve display uniformity.
[0074] In one embodiment, the first fan-out trace 32 is located in the first conductive layer 30, and the second fan-out trace 52 is located in the second conductive layer 50. That is, the first conductive layer 30 also includes the first fan-out trace 32 located in the fan-out region SA, and the second conductive layer 50 also includes the second fan-out trace 52 located in the fan-out region SA. The first fan-out trace 32 and the second fan-out trace 52 are arranged alternately in the first direction X, and the impedance of the first fan-out trace 32 and the second fan-out trace 52 is the same to improve display uniformity.
[0075] The ratio of the length of the first outgoing trace 32 to its cross-sectional area is a first ratio, and the ratio of the length of the second outgoing trace 52 to its cross-sectional area is a second ratio. The second ratio is equal to the first ratio, so that the impedances of the first outgoing trace 32 and the second outgoing trace 52 are the same. Moreover, the fan-out region SA includes multiple first outgoing traces 32 and multiple second outgoing traces 52, with each first outgoing trace 32 having the same impedance, and each second outgoing trace 52 also having the same impedance.
[0076] Optionally, referring to FIG4, the width of the first outgoing trace 32 is the same as the width of the second outgoing trace 52. The second outgoing trace 52 includes a blocking portion 522 and a conductive portion 521 located on the side of the blocking portion 522 away from the substrate 10. The thickness H2 of the conductive portion 521 is the same as the thickness H1 of the first outgoing trace 32. The material of the conductive portion 521 includes molybdenum, the material of the blocking portion 522 includes titanium, and the material of the first outgoing trace 32 is the same as the material of the conductive portion 521.
[0077] The orthographic projection of the first outgoing trace 32 on the substrate 10 is separate from the orthographic projection of the second outgoing trace 52 on the substrate 10, meaning there is no overlap between them. This reduces the parasitic capacitance between the first and second outgoing traces 32. Furthermore, this application uses a first conductive layer 30 to form the first outgoing trace 32 and a second conductive layer 50 to form the second outgoing trace 52. The first conductive layer 30 and the second conductive layer 50 are separated by two insulating layers, a second insulating layer 14 and a third insulating layer 15, and a second semiconductor layer 40. This increases the distance between the first and second outgoing traces 32, further reducing the parasitic capacitance between them and improving display uniformity.
[0078] In some other embodiments, the orthographic projection of the first fan-out trace 32 on the substrate 10 is at least partially overlapping with the orthographic projection of the second fan-out trace 52 on the substrate 10, so as to reduce the area of the non-display area BA occupied by the fan-out area SA, thereby increasing the screen ratio.
[0079] In another embodiment, referring to FIG5, the first fan-out trace 32 includes a first sub-trace 321 located on the first conductive layer 30 and a second sub-trace 322 located on the second conductive layer 50. The first sub-trace 321 and the second sub-trace 322 are connected in parallel. The second fan-out trace 52 is located on the third conductive layer 60. That is, the first conductive layer 30 also includes the first sub-trace 321 located in the fan-out region SA, the second conductive layer 50 also includes the second sub-trace 322 located in the fan-out region SA, and the third conductive layer 60 also includes the second fan-out trace 52 located in the fan-out region SA. The second sub-trace 322 is connected to the first sub-trace 321 through multiple contact holes on the third insulating layer 15 to realize the parallel connection of the first sub-trace 321 and the second sub-trace 322, thereby reducing the impedance of the first fan-out trace 32.
[0080] Optionally, the orthographic projection of the first sub-trace 321 on the substrate 10 overlaps with the orthographic projection of the second sub-trace 322 on the substrate 10, so as to reduce the area occupied by the first fan-out trace 32 in the fan-out region SA.
