  • Patent number: 12193303
    Abstract: An electronic device includes a transparent substrate, a number of pixel structures and a first trace structure. The transparent substrate includes a transparent region and a trace region. Each of the pixel structures has a sub-pixel structure of first color and a sub-pixel structure of second color. The sub-pixel structure of first color has a light emitting element of first color. The sub-pixel structure of second color has a light emitting element of second color. The first trace structure includes a first main trace, a first auxiliary trace and a second auxiliary trace. The first main trace is disposed in the trace region and surrounds a portion of the transparent region. The first auxiliary trace and the second auxiliary trace are electrically connected to the first main trace, and are electrically connected to the corresponding sub-pixel structure of first color and the corresponding sub-pixel structure of second color, respectively.

  • Patent number: 11100880
    Abstract: A pixel array with a gate driver and a matrix sensor array are provided. The pixel array includes at least one pixel unit and a gate driver. The pixel unit includes a pixel circuit and an open area. The pixel circuit includes a thin film transistor (TFT) and a physical quantity conversion device. The TFT includes gate terminal, source terminal, and drain terminals. The source terminal is coupled to a corresponding data line. The physical quantity conversion device is coupled to the drain terminal of the TFT. The gate driver is disposed in a corresponding pixel unit and a scan line outputted by the gate driver is coupled to the gate terminal in the corresponding pixel unit. The gate driver is disposed adjacent to one of the at least one pixel unit. The gate driver is controlled by a gate control signal to drive the at least one pixel unit.
