Display Panel Scan Line Layout for Easier Back-Routing
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
The concentration of signal lines in display panels, particularly in micro-LED and mini-LED display panels, leads to difficulties in the back-routing process and non-uniform image display due to excessive density.
Innovation Solution
The display panel design includes multiple shift register circuit groups arranged in intersecting directions, with signal lines divided into groups connected to different shift register circuit groups, reducing their density and facilitating the back-routing process.

Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Speed
If signal lines are arranged close to the generation circuit to reduce wiring length, then signal transmission efficiency is improved, but signal line density becomes excessively high making back-routing difficult
Solution Approach 1:
The patent divides the signal lines into multiple groups, with each group connected to a corresponding shift register circuit group. This segmentation distributes the signal lines across different regions rather than concentrating them near the generation circuit, reducing local density while maintaining functional connectivity.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent arranges shift register circuit groups and their corresponding signal lines in a distributed spatial pattern across the display region. By utilizing the two-dimensional layout space more effectively, the signal lines are spread out rather than concentrated in one area, facilitating back-routing while maintaining transmission efficiency.
2Length of stationary object
If signal lines are concentrated near the generation circuit, then wiring length is reduced, but image display uniformity deteriorates due to excessive signal line density
Solution Approach 1:
The signal lines are segmented into multiple groups, each serving a specific shift register circuit group. This distribution prevents excessive concentration of signal lines in any single region, thereby maintaining image display uniformity while keeping wiring length reasonable.
Solution Approach 2:
Different regions of the display panel have different signal line densities according to their functional requirements. The signal lines are distributed to match the spatial distribution of shift register circuit groups, creating locally optimized density patterns that maintain overall image uniformity.
