  • Publication number: 20210103172
    Abstract: A display substrate has first and second conductive layers separated from one another by an insulation layer. The first and second conductive layers are used to integrally form on the display substrate, pixel units in a relatively central display area of the substrate and integrated gate driving circuitry as well as associated wirings thereof in one or more peripheral areas. The first and second conductive layers are covered by a first protection layer made of a first electrically insulative material. A second and supplementing protection layer is provided on top of the first protection layer. The supplementing protection layer (buffer layer) is formed of a material different from that of the first protection layer so as to provide supplemental resistance against corrosive chemical agents and supplemental resistance against formation of cracks.

  • Patent number: 10152942
    Abstract: A display apparatus includes a timing controller, a data driver and a display panel. The data driver generates a positive polarity data voltage and a negative polarity data voltage based on image data compensated by the timing controller. The display panel includes a first pixel driven based on the positive polarity voltage and a second pixel driven based on the negative polarity voltage. The display panel receives a storage voltage applied to the first pixel and the second pixel. The timing controller compensates the image data when a variation on a level of the storage voltage occurs. The compensation shifts a level of the first data voltage from a first normal level to a first compensation level in a direction, and shifts a level of the second data voltage from a second normal level to a second compensation level in the same direction.
