    Abstract: An improved LED module packaging structure with an IC chip includes a power input end in a packaging groove of a carrier stand connected to a zener diode and a power input port of the IC chip acquiring an operating power from the zener diode, so that the LED module applied to a full-color or self-color illuminant of central control utilizes the zener diode connected to the power input end within the packaging groove of the carrier stand to lower or modulate the voltage of an external power. While the IC chip receives a data signal from the data signal input end, the IC chip receives a matched operating voltage via the zener diode to drive the LED chip to shine, thereby attaining a long transmission of the central control easily.

  • Publication number: 20140299884
    Abstract: An electronic device may have a flexible display with portions that are bent along a bend axis. The display may have display circuitry such as an array of display pixels in an active area. Contact pads may be formed in an inactive area of the display. Signal lines may couple the display pixels to the contact pads. The signal lines may overlap the bend axis in the inactive area of the display. During fabrication, an etch stop may be formed on the display that overlaps the bend axis. The etch stop may prevent over etching of dielectric such as a buffer layer on a polymer flexible display substrate. A layer of polymer that serves as a neutral stress plane adjustment layer may be formed over the signal lines in the inactive area of the display. Upon bending, the neutral stress plane adjustment layer helps prevent stress in the signal lines.
