Abstract:
A tiled display structure is fabricated on a single substrate that also serves as a circuit board containing electronic components. Electrodes are formed on the substrate and the remainder of the display section is formed on the electrodes. The pixel elements used patterned display material, and occupy only a portion of the pixel structure. The electronic components are mounted on the substrate using exceptionally long leads to assist in the thermal management of tiles. Alternatively, each tile includes a fin structure on the circuit board surface onto which electronic components are mounted and are not in contact with the substrate. Alternatively, each tile includes a flexible circuit board mounted on the substrate, a portion of which is bent away from the substrate. Electronic components are coupled to this portion of the flexible circuit boards such that the components are not in contact with the substrate to assist in thermal management.

Abstract:
Disclosed is a display device using a printed circuit board (PCB) as a substrate of a display panel. The display device includes the PCB formed with a via hole, a display panel having an electrode aligned adjacent to one side of the via hole formed in the PCB in order to apply an electric signal to a pixel or a segment, a driving circuit section for applying an electric signal to the display panel, and a wiring section for electrically connecting the electrode of the display panel to the driving circuit section through the via hole. The electric signal of the driving circuit is directly applied to the lower electrode through the via hole of the PCB, so the length of the electrode line used for wiring can be significantly reduced, thereby improving the response speed of the display device.

A new kind of Active-Matrix LCD, called Outside-Active-Matrix LCD (OAM-LCD), is formed by depositing the active-matrix (509) on the outside surface of the LCD substrate (506). Each active component is connected with a related dot electrode (507) of the LCD cell through thin conductive lead (511), which is hidden in the substrate (506). The OAM-LCD can use transmission LC or scattering LC. This OAM-LCD not only makes the large screen LCD feasible, but also is easy to manufacture. The OAM-LCD can be used for making large screen hang-on-wall TV, and super large screen mosaic video display both indoor and outdoor applications. OAM-LCD's features include high brightness, high efficiency, good color quality, long life time, low cost and high contrast, especially under high ambient illumination, such as under direct sunlight.
