As shown in fig. 5, 6 and 7, the display layer 2 is disposed on one side of the substrate 1 (for example, on the upper side of the substrate 1 in the figure) and is electrically connected to the substrate 1, so that the display layer 2 can be driven to display after the substrate 1 is powered on. In a plane parallel to the substrate 1, the projection of the display layer 2 is located within the projection of the substrate 1, so that the display layer 2 does not exceed the substrate 1, and the normal display of the display layer 2 is prevented from being affected.
As shown in fig. 5, 7 and 8, the protective layer 3 is disposed on a side of the display layer 2 (e.g., an upper side of the display layer 2 in the figure) away from the substrate 1, and the protective layer 3 can protect the display layer 2, for example, can prevent external moisture, dust, etc. from contacting the display layer 2 to affect normal display of the display layer 2, and can also prevent the display layer 2 from being damaged due to scratching of the display layer 2 by hard objects, etc. At least part of protective layer 3 surpasss the periphery wall of base plate 1, specifically speaking, for example, can be that the part of certain side edge of protective layer 3 surpasss the corresponding edge of base plate 1, or the whole edge of certain side of protective layer 3 surpasss the corresponding edge of base plate 1, also can be that all edges of protective layer 3 all surpass the corresponding edge of base plate 1, make the part that surpasss base plate 1 of protective layer 3 still can play certain guard action to base plate 1, thereby in display module assembly 100's manufacturing process or product test (for example drop test or vibrations test), the periphery wall of base plate 1 just is difficult to receive the phenomenon that collides with and take place the damage.
