Embodiments of the present disclosure provide a backlight board, a backlight module, and a display device. Detailed descriptions are separately provided below. The description sequence of the following embodiments is not intended to limit preference orders of the embodiments.


First, the embodiments of the present disclosure provide a backlight board, including a substrate, a light-emitting unit, and a packaging block. A control circuit, a first power signal line, and a second power signal line are disposed on the substrate. The light-emitting unit is disposed on the substrate. The light-emitting unit includes a plurality of light-emitting devices. The packaging block is disposed on the substrate. A plurality of first control switches are integrated in the packaging block. The plurality of first control switches correspond one to one to the plurality of light-emitting devices. Each first control switch includes a first connecting terminal, a second connecting terminal, and a control terminal. Each light-emitting device and the corresponding first control switch are connected in series between the first power signal line and the second power signal line. The control circuit is electrically connected to the control terminal, to control the first connecting terminal and the second connecting terminal to be connected or disconnected.



FIGS. 1 and 2 are respectively schematic diagrams of the circuit and distribution of a backlight board according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, a backlight board 110 includes a substrate 111, a light-emitting unit 115, and a packaging block 116. A control circuit 112, a first power signal line 113, and a second power signal line 114 are disposed on the substrate 111, and are configured to control the light-emitting status of the light-emitting unit 115. Through the arrangement of the control circuit 112, backlights can be turned on for different light-emitting units 115 matching a display picture of a panel, so that the contrast of a display panel is adjusted, thereby improving the display picture quality of the display panel.


It requires to be noted that, the substrate 111 used in the embodiments of the present disclosure may be a glass substrate, a printed circuit substrate or the like. This is not limited herein.


The light-emitting unit 115 is disposed on the substrate 111. Through the design of the arrangement and connection manner of the light-emitting unit 115 and the control circuit 112, different control manners of the light-emitting unit 115 by the control circuit 112 can be implemented, thereby implementing the regulation of the light-emitting status of the light-emitting unit 115, to provide different backlight sources to the display panel.


The light-emitting unit 115 may include a plurality of light-emitting devices 1152. Through the design of layout positions of the plurality of light-emitting devices 1152, light-emitting regions of the light-emitting unit 115 can be regulated, thereby satisfying different backlight demands. In addition, electrical connection manners between the light-emitting devices 1152 and the control circuit 112 may be adjusted according to a design demand, thereby simplifying circuit wiring and control manners.


Each light-emitting device 1152 may include one or more light-emitting elements. A plurality of light-emitting element may be connected in series and used as light-emitting light sources for the backlight board 110, to provide the display panel with backlights. The arrangement manner and arrangement positions of the light-emitting elements may be designed matching a display picture of a panel, thereby improving the contrast and display picture quality of the display panel.


It requires to be noted that, the light-emitting elements in the embodiments of the present disclosure may be LED lights. The LED light may be of different colors. Through the coordination between the LED lights of different colors, different backlight sources may be provided to the display panel. The demands of the display panel for different backlight sources can be satisfied by adjusting the quantity, colors, and arrangement manner of the LED lights.


The packaging block 116 is further disposed on the substrate 111 of the backlight board 110. A plurality of first control switches 1153 are integrated in the packaging block 116. The plurality of first control switches 1153 correspond one to one to the plurality of light-emitting devices 1152. The plurality of first control switches 1153 are integrated together, so that one packaging block 116 provides a plurality of switch functions, and the plurality of light-emitting devices 1152 can be simultaneously regulated.


Each first control switch 1153 and the corresponding light-emitting device 1152 are connected in series between the first power signal line 113 and the second power signal line 114, and are configured to control whether to conduct a current in the light-emitting device 1152. The first power signal line 113 and the second power signal line 114 may provide a direct current signal to the plurality of light-emitting devices 1152. The direct current signal is used for turning on the light-emitting devices 1152 and the first control switches 1153. Through the design of a connection manner between the first control switch 1153 and the light-emitting device 1152, a current direction in the light-emitting device 1152 may be changed, so that the layout of the first power signal line 113 and the second power signal line 114 is designed, to optimize wires on the substrate 111 of the backlight board 110.


It requires to be noted that, each light-emitting device 1152 has a resistance value. If the light-emitting device 1152 includes a plurality of light-emitting elements, when a direct current signal outputted by the first power signal line 113 or the second power signal line 114 flows through the plurality of light-emitting elements, due to the occurrence of a voltage drop, a voltage value gradually decreases. To ensure that the plurality of light-emitting elements are normally turned on, the direct current signal outputted by the first power signal line 113 or the second power signal line 114 may be adjusted according to resistance values of the light-emitting elements in the light-emitting device 1152 and a quantity of the light-emitting elements, thereby ensuring that the light-emitting stability of the light-emitting devices 1152 and the overall display brightness and display uniformity of the backlight board 110.


The first control switch 1153 in the embodiments of the present disclosure may include a first connecting terminal 1153a, a second connecting terminal 1153b, and a control terminal 1153c. The control circuit 112 is electrically connected to the control terminal 1153c to control the first connecting terminal 1153a and the second connecting terminal 1153b to be connected or disconnected. When the first connecting terminal 1153a is connected to the second connecting terminal 1153b, the light-emitting device 1152 and the first control switch 1153 form a current path, and the light-emitting device 1152 emits light. Through the adjustment of the control signal of the control circuit 112, the conduction status of different first control switches 1153 may be controlled, thereby controlling the light-emitting status of different light-emitting devices 1152.


It requires to be noted that, a wiring foot is disposed on the surface of the packaging block 116, and is configured to electrically connect the first control switch 1153 to another structure. The plurality of first control switches 1153 are integrated together, to help reduce an area occupied by the first control switches 1153 in general, thereby reducing the impact of the first control switch 1153 on the light-emitting effect of the backlight board 110, and also help improve the space utilization and level of integration of the backlight board 110.


Optionally, the second connecting terminals 1153b of the at least two first control switches 1153 in the embodiments of the present disclosure are electrically connected together. That is, the at least two first control switches 1153 may share one interface. During wiring on the substrate 111 of the backlight board 110, the wiring manner can be simplified, and in addition, the area occupied by the first control switches 1153 in general can be reduced, thereby reducing the impact of the overall light-emitting effect on the backlight board 110 by the first control switch 1153, and improving the level of integration of the backlight board 110.


It requires to be noted that, when the second connecting terminals 1153b of the at least two first control switches 1153 are electrically connected together, it may mean that the second connecting terminals 1153b of the first control switches 1153 are connected by a wire on the substrate 111, or it may mean that the at least two first control switches 1153 share one second connecting terminal 1153b. Although manufacturing processes of the two manners are different, the same eventual effect is achieved, so that the area occupied by the first control switches 1153 in general can be reduced, thereby improving the level of integration of the backlight board 110.


Optionally, the second connecting terminals 1153b of the plurality of first control switches 1153 in the packaging block 116 in the embodiments of the present disclosure may be electrically connected together. That is, the second connecting terminals 1153b of all the first control switches 1153 share one wiring port, and it is not necessary to separately perform wiring to connect the second connecting terminal 1153b of every first control switch 1153, so that the wiring on the substrate 111 of the backlight board 110 is simpler. In addition, this layout manner can reduce a distance between the first control switches 1153, to help further reduce the area occupied by the first control switches 1153 in general, thereby improving the level of integration of the backlight board 110, reducing the impact on the light-emitting effect of the backlight board 110 by the packaging block 116, and improving the light-emitting uniformity of the backlight board 110.


The plurality of light-emitting devices 1152 may be distributed in an array. That is, the plurality of light-emitting devices 1152 may be distributed in a plurality of rows and a plurality of columns, forming a “2×2 grid” shape in general. The packaging block 116 is located at a middle position close to the light-emitting devices 1152 distributed in an array. This distribution manner can effectively prevent mutual intersection between circuits, thereby simplifying a manufacturing process.


Optionally, the first connecting terminal 1153a in the embodiments of the present disclosure may be an input terminal of the first control switch 1153. The second connecting terminal 1153b may be an output terminal of the first control switch 1153, and the second connecting terminals 1153b of the at least two first control switches 1153 are electrically connected together. That is, output terminals of the at least two first control switches 1153 are electrically connected together, and the input terminals are separately electrically connected to cathodes of the corresponding light-emitting devices 1152.


An anode of the light-emitting device 1152 may be electrically connected to the first power signal line 113. The first power signal line 113 inputs a direct current signal to the light-emitting device 1152. The output terminals of the first control switches 1153 that are electrically connected together may be connected to the second power signal line 114. The second power signal line 114 is connected to the ground. When the first control switches 1153 are turned on, the direct current signal inputted on the first power signal line 113 flows to the first control switch 1153 via the light-emitting device 1152, and the light-emitting device 1152 emits light.


Because the grounding voltage is 0 V, a voltage value difference can be prevented at the output terminals electrically connected together of the different first control switches 1153, to avoid a voltage interference on circuits that are electrically connected together, thereby improving the light-emitting stability of the light-emitting elements, and ensuring the light-emitting uniformity of the backlight board 110.


It requires to be noted that, the first connecting terminal 1153a in the embodiments of the present disclosure may be the output terminal of the first control switch 1153, and the second connecting terminal 1153b may be the input terminal of the first control switch 1153. That is, input terminals of the at least two first control switches 1153 are electrically connected together. The output terminal of the first control switch 1153 is electrically connected to the anode of the corresponding light-emitting device 1152.


A cathode of the light-emitting device 1152 is connected to the first power signal line 113. The first power signal line 113 is connected to the ground. The input terminals of the first control switches 1153 that are electrically connected together are connected to the second power signal line 114. The second power signal line 114 inputs a direct current signal to the input terminal of the first control switch 1153. When the first control switches 1153 are turned on, the current flows to the light-emitting device 1152 via the first control switch 1153, to enable the light-emitting device 1152 to emit light.


It requires to be noted that connection manners between the first control switch 1153 and the light-emitting device 1152 and the first power signal line 113 and the second power signal line 114 in the embodiments of the present disclosure may be adjusted according to an actual design demand, as long as the second connecting terminals 1153b of the at least two first control switches 1153 are electrically connected together to normally implement the adjustment of the light-emitting status of different light-emitting devices 1152.


When the light-emitting unit 115 includes a relatively large quantity of light-emitting devices 1152 and it is not convenient to electrically connect the plurality of light-emitting devices 1152 and first control switches 1153 to one same first power signal line 113 or second power signal line 114, a plurality of first power signal lines 113 or a plurality of second power signal lines 114 may be separately disposed on the substrate 111, the plurality of first power signal lines 113 are electrically connected together, and the plurality of second power signal lines 114 are electrically connected together. Although the quantities of the first power signal lines 113 and the second power signal lines 114 increase, in general the wiring on the substrate 111 of the backlight board 110 is still facilitated.


The control circuit 112 in the embodiments of the present disclosure may include a scan driver line 1121, a data driver line 1122, and a second control switch 1123. A control terminal of the second control switch 1123 is electrically connected to the scan driver line 1121. A scan signal is inputted on the scan driver line 1121, so that it may be controlled whether the second control switch 1123 is turned on. An input terminal of the second control switch 1123 is electrically connected to the data driver line 1122. An output terminal of the second control switch 1123 is electrically connected to the control terminal 1153c of the first control switch 1153. A data signal is inputted on the data driver line 1122. In a case that the second control switch 1123 is turned on, the data signal may be delivered to the control terminal 1153c of the first control switch 1153 through the second control switch 1123, and is used for controlling the first control switch 1153 to be turned on or off.


The scan driver line 1121 is configured to control whether the second control switch 1123 is turned on. The data driver line 1122 and the second control switch 1123 are configured to control whether the first control switch 1153 is turned on. Through the adjustment of input signals on the scan driver line 1121 and the data driver line 1122, a demand may be matched according to a display picture on a panel, to implement the regulation of the light-emitting status of different light-emitting devices 1152.


It requires to be noted that, the control circuit 112 disposed on the substrate 111 may include a plurality of scan driver lines 1121 and a plurality of data driver lines 1122, which are respectively connected to a plurality of second control switches 1123. Control terminals of the second control switches 1123 located in the same row may be electrically connected together to the same scan driver line 1121, and input terminals of the second control switches 1123 located in the same column may be electrically connected together to the same data driver line 1122.


Whether the second control switch 1123 is turned on is directly correlated to the scan signal inputted on the scan driver line 1121. In a case that the second control switch 1123 is turned on, through the adjustment of the data signal inputted on the data driver line 1122, the first control switch 1153 may be turned on. Therefore, through the joint adjustment of input signals on the scan driver line 1121 and the data driver line 1122, the light-emitting status of the plurality of light-emitting devices 1152 may be simultaneously controlled.


It requires to be noted that when the control terminals of the second control switches 1123 in the same row are electrically connected to the same scan driver line 1121 and the input terminals of the second control switches 1123 in the same column are electrically connected to the same data driver line 1122, the arrangement quantities of the scan driver lines 1121 and the data driver lines 1122 in the control circuit 112 on the substrate 111 can be reduced, so that the wiring on the substrate 111 is more compact, and the wiring of the backlight board 110 and the brightness of the light board are not affected by an increase in the quantity of the light-emitting devices 1152.


Optionally, at least one of the first control switch 1153 and the second control switch 1123 in the embodiments of the present disclosure is a MOS transistor. Because the MOS transistor has highly stable electrical performance and nearly does not change in an extreme condition Vth (threshold voltage), the drive demand of a mini-LED can be adequately satisfied, thereby improving the light-emitting stability of the backlight board 110.


According to different design demands and wiring manners, the MOS transistor used in the embodiments of the present disclosure may be an N-channel MOS transistor or a P-channel MOS transistor. The type of the used MOS transistor is closely correlated to the connection manner between the first control switch 1153 and the light-emitting device 1152. The first control switch 1153 is directly connected to the light-emitting device 1152. The connection of the light-emitting device 1152 may determine the direction of a current in the light-emitting elements, to determine the direction of a current in the first control switch 1153, and the type of the MOS transistor is determined accordingly. Through the mutual coordination between different types of MOS transistors, different wiring design demands can be satisfied.


Specifically, for example, the first control switch 1153 in the embodiments of the present disclosure is a MOS transistor. FIG. 3 is a schematic diagram of a structure of a back surface of the first control switch 1153 in the packaging block 116. As shown in FIG. 3, the control terminal 1153c of the first control switch 1153 is a gate 1153d of the MOS transistor, the input terminal is a drain 1153f of the MOS transistor, and the output terminal is a source 1153e of the MOS transistor. The drain 1153f of the MOS transistor is electrically connected to the cathode of the light-emitting device 1152, and the anode of the light-emitting device 1152 is electrically connected to the first power signal line 113. The source 1153e of the MOS transistor is electrically connected to the second power signal line 114. The second power signal line 114 is grounded, and the first control switches 1153 located in the same column share one same source 1153e. When the light-emitting device 1152 is turned on to emit light, a direct current signal inputted on the first power signal line 113 flows from the drain 1153f of the MOS transistor to the source 1153e of the MOS transistor via the light-emitting device 1152. According to a current conduction direction, it may be determined that in this case the MOS transistor is an N-channel MOS transistor.


If the connection manner between the light-emitting device 1152 and the MOS transistor is changed to enable the first power signal line 113 to be grounded, the direct current signal inputted on the second power signal line 114 flows to the drain 1153f of the MOS transistor via the source 1153e of the MOS transistor, and then flows through the light-emitting device 1152, so that the light-emitting device 1152 is turned on to emit light. In this case, the MOS transistor is a P-channel MOS transistor.


Optionally, the first control switch 1153 and the second control switch 1123 in the embodiments of the present disclosure may both be MOS transistors, to further improve the light-emitting stability of the backlight board 110. Certainly, the first control switch 1153 and the second control switch 1123 may be a TFT switch or any other control switch with the same switch function, as long as the second connecting terminals 1153b of the at least two first control switches 1153 may be electrically connected together and the light-emitting status of the plurality of light-emitting devices 1152 can be regulated.


In the embodiments of the present disclosure, the regulation of the light-emitting status of the plurality of light-emitting devices 1152 is closely correlated to input signals on the scan driver line 1121 and the data driver line 1122 in the control circuit 112.


Specifically, in an actual working process, when a high level signal is inputted on scan driver lines 1121 in a row, and the input terminals and output terminals of the second control switches 1123 electrically connected to the scan driver lines 1121 in this row are connected. In this case, if a high level signal is also correspondingly inputted on the data driver lines 1122 electrically connected to the input terminals of the second control switches 1123, the input terminals and output terminals of the first control switches 1153 electrically connected to the output terminals of the second control switches 1123 are also connected, and the light-emitting device 1152 emits light.


When input signals on scan driver lines 1121 in a row or data driver lines 1122 in a column change from high level signals to low level signals, the light-emitting devices 1152 electrically connected to the row or the column do not emit light. Therefore, through the adjustment of the input signals on the scan driver lines 1121 and the data driver lines 1122, that is, the light-emitting status of the light-emitting device 1152 may be regulated. When this wiring connection manner is used, a plurality of light-emitting devices 1152 may be simultaneously controlled, thereby improving the level of integration of the backlight board 110.


It requires to be noted that, a value range of the high level signals inputted on the scan driver line 1121 and the data driver line 1122 in the embodiments of the present disclosure is related to the types of the first control switch 1153 and the second control switch 1123, and may be adjusted according to an actual design demand, as long as it is ensured that the inputted high level signals can normally turn on the first control switch 1153 and the second control switch 1123.


Similarly, the direct current signal on the first power signal line 113 or the second power signal line 114 may be alternatively adjusted according to the structure of the light-emitting device 1152 and the quantity of the light-emitting elements in the light-emitting device 1152, as long as it is ensured that the light-emitting elements can emit light normally and stably and the overall light-emitting brightness and light-emitting stability of the backlight board 110 are ensured.


Optionally, the substrate 111 in the embodiments of the present disclosure further includes a light-emitting sub-region corresponding to each light-emitting device 1152. The packaging block 116 may be located at a joint between adjacent light-emitting sub-regions, so that differences in distances between the light-emitting devices 1152 in the light-emitting sub-region and the first control switches 1153 integrated in the packaging block 116 are reduced, to facilitate the connection between the light-emitting device 1152 and the first control switch 1153 and also facilitate the connection between the first control switch 1153 and the control circuit 112, the first power signal line 113, and the second power signal line 114, to simplify a wiring layout.


It requires to be noted that, the joint between adjacent light-emitting sub-regions does not only indicate a position on a joint boundary or may indicate a region range close to a joint boundary, as long as it is ensured that differences in distances between the region and the light-emitting devices 1152 in the light-emitting sub-region do not affect the impact of wires on the backlight board 110 on the light-emitting effect of the light-emitting device 1152.


Optionally, the light-emitting unit 115 may include four light-emitting devices 1152. The four light-emitting devices 1152 are distributed in a matrix. The first power signal line 113 is located between two columns of light-emitting devices 1152, and the second power signal line 114 is located between two rows of light-emitting devices 1152. The packaging block 116 is located at an intersection between the first power signal line 113 and the second power signal line 114. This arrangement manner can avoid that a light-emitting device 1152 on a boundary is excessively far away from the first control switch 1153 in the packaging block 116, thereby reducing the manufacturing process and wiring difficulty of the backlight board 110.


It requires to be noted that, as shown in FIG. 2, the two columns in the embodiments of the present disclosure are two columns that are sequentially distributed from left to right in FIG. 2, and the two rows are two rows that are sequentially distributed from top to bottom in FIG. 2. In a specific use process, related directions may be adjusted according to an actual case. This is not limited herein.
