  • Publication number: 20060017665
    Abstract: An OLED includes a display panel, a printed circuit board, a signal transmission member and a voltage transmission member. The display panel has a display region and peripheral regions. The display panel displays an image by an organic light emitting element within the display region. The printed circuit board applies a driving signal and a voltage to the display panel. The signal transmission member electrically connects the printed circuit board to the display panel to transmit the driving signal and the voltage to the display panel. The voltage transmission member transmits the voltage to the display panel. Therefore, an amount of the current applied to the display panel is increased.

  • Patent number: 5714770
    Abstract: A thin film transistor liquid crystal display compensates for differences in optical brightness of pixels associated with normal data lines and repaired data lines. The display includes signal delay elements formed in the signal receiving portions of the data lines so as to provide a built-in signal delay to match the signal delays created in the display arising when data lines are repaired. Auxiliary signal lines are formed in parallel with, but initially insulated from the signal delay elements. When a data line is repaired, the auxiliary data line is shorted across the terminals of the signal delay element so as to remove that source of delay from the repaired data line signal path. Preferably, the signal delay through the repaired data line without a signal delay element in its path will be about the same as a normal data line with a signal delay element.

  • Patent number: 5339181
    Abstract: An active matrix LCD which essentially differs from presently available active matrix LCDs in that the layout of a first electrode of a storage capacitor associated with each pixel thereof is modified in such a manner as to significantly increase the aperture and contrast ratios thereof relative to those of presently available active matrix LCDs. More particularly, the first electrodes of the storage capacitors are laid out in such a manner as to substantially surround their associated pixel electrodes, and preferably, only overlap a marginal edge portion of their associated pixel electrodes, about the periphery thereof.
