  • Patent number: 9678395
    Abstract: An array substrate includes a plurality of pixel regions and a plurality of pixel electrodes. Each pixel region includes a first sub-pixel region and a second sub-pixel region. Each pixel electrode includes a first electrode disposed in the first sub-pixel region and a second electrode disposed in the second sub-pixel region. The first electrode includes a first main electrode dividing the first sub-pixel region into a first alignment region and a second alignment region. The second electrode includes a second main electrode dividing the second sub-pixel region into a third alignment region and a fourth alignment region. The first, the second, the third, and the fourth alignment regions are sequentially arranged in a first direction. The first electrode and the second electrode are separated by a gap, and a width of the gap in the first direction is less than a width of one of the first, the second, the third, and the fourth alignment regions in the first direction.

  • Patent number: 9599870
    Abstract: A display panel includes a first substrate, first gate lines, first data lines, second data lines, third data lines, fourth data lines, first sub-pixels, second sub-pixels and first shielding electrodes. The first substrate has a plurality of first sub-pixel regions and second sub-pixel regions. The first gate lines extend along a first direction. The first data lines, the second data lines, the third data lines and the fourth data lines extend along a second direction and are sequentially arranged in the first direction. The first sub-pixel is electrically connected to one of the first data line and the second data line. The second sub-pixel is electrically connected to one of the third data line and the fourth data line. The first shielding electrodes extend along the second direction and are disposed in a common boundary between the first sub-pixel region and the second sub-pixel region adjacent to each other.

  • Patent number: 9116576
    Abstract: A photosensitive pixel circuit of a touch module including an output transistor and a light detection unit is provided. The output transistor receives a reference signal and provides a touch voltage controlled by a light detection voltage. The light detection unit is electrically connected to the output transistor, and receives a touch scan signal. The light detection unit detects an intensity of a light according to the touch scan signal so as to correspondingly provide the light detection voltage.

  • Patent number: 7155178
    Abstract: A circuit system for wireless communications via two antennas. The circuit system includes a printed circuit board having a predetermined area devoid of a solder mask. According to the invention, an antenna switch, filter, and power amplifier are mounted on the printed circuit board within the predetermined area. The antenna switch connects the filter and the power amplifier with the two antennas. The filter blocks unwanted frequency components in an RF receive signal from either of the antennas. A transceiver is responsible for down-converting the RF receive signal a baseband receive signal and up-converting a baseband transmit signal to an RF transmit signal. A first matching network coupled between the filter and the transceiver transforms the RF receive signal from single-ended to differential. Likewise, a second matching network coupled between the transceiver and the power amplifier transforms the RF transmit signal from differential to single-ended.
