Solution Overview

Problem

Liquid crystal display (LCD) devices experience signal interference due to overlapping regions between gate and data lines, leading to distortion of data signals and adverse impact on image quality.

Innovation Solution

An anti-interference wiring structure is introduced, featuring anti-interference wires between gate and data lines, insulated from them, carrying a signal with a reverse phase compared to the gate lines, with a smaller width and closer proximity to gate lines than data lines, to reduce signal interference.

1Productivity

If gate lines and data lines are arranged in overlapping grid pattern, then device integration is improved, but signal interference increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedevice integrationVSAvoidsignal interference
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSObject-affected harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

An anti-interference wire is introduced as an intermediary element positioned between the gate line and data line. This mediator carries a reverse-phase signal that actively counteracts the electromagnetic interference generated by the gate line, thereby protecting the data line from cross-talk while maintaining the integrated grid layout.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

Solution Approach 2:

The anti-interference wire carries a signal with reverse phase to the gate line signal in advance, creating a preemptive counter-action that neutralizes the harmful electromagnetic field before it can interfere with the data line. This preliminary anti-action prevents cross-talk distortion before it affects the data signal integrity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #9Preliminary anti-action

2Object-affected harmful factors

If anti-interference wire is placed closer to gate line, then interference reduction is improved, but coupling with data line decreases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveinterference reductionVSAvoidsignal coupling
Core Design Contradiction:
Object-affected harmful factorsVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The wiring structure employs differentiated spatial relationships: the anti-interference wire is positioned closer to the gate line than to the data line. This local quality differentiation optimizes the counteraction effect on the gate line's electromagnetic field while maintaining sufficient coupling with the data line for effective interference cancellation.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality
