The present disclosure relates to display technology, and more particularly to an array substrate of enhancing gate driver on array (GOA) reliability.
Liquid crystal devices (LCDs) are the most commonly used flat displays, wherein the thin film transistor (TFT) LCD is the most popular one. TFT-LCDs are characterized by attributes such as low cost, high yield rate, and good display performance, and are the main product in the LCD market. However, though the technology has been developed, the user demand toward higher display performance still drive more higher level development.
The conventional liquid crystal panel includes an array substrate, a color-filter substrate, and liquid crystal between the array substrate and the color-filter substrate. In the PCBA manufacturing process, a grounding capacitor is configured in the common end to regulate the voltage on the common end of the array substrate. The regulated voltage on the common end of the connects to the common electrode line within the liquid crystal panel via traces, including the traces on PCBA, the adhesive connection between the PCBA and the chip on film (COF), the COF traces, the adhesive connection between the COF and the liquid crystal panel, and the traces on the liquid crystal panel. The resistor (R) is between the common end on the PCBA and the internal common electrode line within the liquid crystal panel. With respect to the liquid crystal panel, as the data line, the gate line, and the common electrode line may couple, the voltage on the common end may be interfered, which is also referred to as noise. The voltage on the common end cannot quickly recover, the LCD display screen may be flutter or pan-green. At this moment, the voltage at the common end has to be regulated by a generation unit at the common end on the PCBA and the grounding capacitors in the rim of the generation unit. The resistor (R) greatly reduces the regulation ability provided by the generation unit and the grounding capacitors. Thus, it is necessary to propose an array substrate capable of preventing the VSS low voltage from being affected by other signals.
The present disclosure relates to resolve the issue of low reliability of conventional GOA by proposing an array substrate for preventing the low voltage VSS signals being affected by other signals.
In one aspect, an array substrate for enhancing gate driver on array (GOA) reliability includes: a GOA circuit, a clock signals (CK) trace, a peripheral trace (CF_COM), an active display area (AA), wherein: the array substrate comprises dual and adjacent VSS traces in a rim, the VSS traces comprise a first VSS trace and a second VSS trace, 2n number of regulation capacitors are configured between the CF_COM trace and the second VSS trace via metal material in different layers, wherein n is a positive integer.
In another aspect, an array substrate for enhancing gate driver on array (GOA) reliability includes: a GOA circuit, a clock signals (CK) trace, a peripheral trace (CF_COM), an active display area (AA), wherein: a single third VSS trace is configured between the GOA circuit and the CF_COM in the active display area (AA), 2n number of regulation capacitors are configured between the CF_COM trace and the third VSS trace via metal material in different layers, wherein n is a positive integer.
Wherein an end of the first VSS trace connects with an end of the second VSS trace.
Wherein the CK trace comprises two CK traces arranged at two lateral sides of the active display area (AA), and the CK traces are respectively between the first VSS trace and the second VSS trace or arranged in a rim of the GOA circuit.
Wherein the third VSS trace is respectively arranged at two lateral sides of the active display area (AA).
Wherein 2n number of regulation capacitors are arranged at the two lateral sides of the active display area (AA) and are symmetrical to each other.
Wherein the GOA circuit is symmetrical with respect to two lateral sides of the active display area.
Wherein a regulation capacitor is configured in a connection location of the first VSS trace and the second VSS trace.
Wherein the array substrate is adopted in a display panel.
Wherein the first VSS trace, the second VSS trace, the third VSS trace, and the CF_COM trace are in different planes.
In view of the above, the regulation capacitors are configured within the VSS trace area to prevent the low voltage VSS from being affected by other signals. Thus, while the function of the GOA circuit 1 is prevented from being decayed by adopting the above design, the noise amplitude caused toward the output of the scanning driving signals and the low voltage VSS may be enhanced, which enhances the GOA reliability.
Thus, the array substrate in the present disclosure not only can enhances the GOA reliability, but also can enhance the color shift issue in the display area.
