  • Publication number: 20200111812
    Abstract: A pixel array includes first signal lines, second signal lines, active components, pixel electrodes, and selection lines. The second signal lines are intersected with and electrically insulated to the first signal lines. Each active component is electrically connected to one of the first signal lines and one of the second signal lines. Each pixel electrode is electrically connected to one of the active components. The selection lines are intersected with the first signal lines to form a plurality of first intersections and second intersections. The selection lines are electrically connected to the first signal lines at the first intersections but electrically insulated to the first signal lines at second intersections. The selection lines are electrically insulated to the second signal lines. At least one of the second signal lines is disposed between each selection line and any one of the active components.

  • Publication number: 20200098680
    Abstract: A conductive structure includes a first wire, a second wire, and a conductive pillar. The second wire is disposed over the first wire and intersected with the first wire. The conductive pillar is disposed between the first wire and the second wire. A bottom surface area of the conductive pillar is greater than an area at which the first wire overlaps the conductive pillar.

  • Patent number: 10339847
    Abstract: A display apparatus including a display panel and a driver circuit is provided. The display panel includes a display region and a non-display region. The non-display region includes a plurality of dummy pixels connected to one another. The driver circuit provides gate driving voltages and a test data voltage, so as to make the dummy pixels connected to one another generate a charging rate test signal in response to the test data voltage.
