Patent number: 11985858Abstract: Disclosed is a display device that is capable of being driven with low power consumption. A first thin-film transistor including a polycrystalline semiconductor layer and a second thin-film transistor including an oxide semiconductor layer are disposed in an active area, thereby reducing power consumption. At least one opening formed in a bending area is formed to have the same depth as any one of contact holes formed in the active area, thereby making it possible to form the opening and the contact holes through the same process and consequently simplifying the process of manufacturing the device. Since a high potential supply line and a low potential supply line overlap each other with a protective film formed of an inorganic insulation material interposed therebetween, short-circuiting of the high potential supply line and the low potential supply line may be prevented.Type: GrantFiled: July 5, 2023Date of Patent: May 14, 2024Assignee: LG Display Co., Ltd.Inventors: Kyoung-Nam Lim, Yu-Ho Jung, Dong-Young Kim

Patent number: 11929032Abstract: A display device comprises a display panel which comprises scan lines, sensing lines, pixels electrically connected to each of the scan lines, and photo sensors electrically to each of the scan lines and the sensing lines, a scan driver which outputs scan signals to the scan lines according to a scan control signal, a timing controller which outputs the scan control signal to the scan driver, and a readout circuit which receives light sensing signals of the photo sensors from the sensing lines. The timing controller sets a frame frequency of the scan control signal to a first frame frequency in a first mode in which the display panel displays an image. The timing controller sets the frame frequency of the scan control signal to a second frame frequency in a second mode in which the photo sensors sense a fingerprint.Type: GrantFiled: August 15, 2022Date of Patent: March 12, 2024Assignee: SAMSUNG DISPLAY CO., LTD.Inventors: Hyun Dae Lee, Il Nam Kim, Seung Hyun Moon, Dong Wook Yang, Kang Bin Jo, Go Eun Cha
