Description

顯示裝置 Display device

本發明係指一種顯示裝置,尤指一種透過玻璃覆晶結合製程來達到窄邊框之需求的顯示裝置,不僅能降低成本,還能大幅提升產能。 The present invention refers to a display device, in particular to a display device that meets the requirement of a narrow frame through a glass-on-glass bonding process, which can not only reduce the cost, but also greatly increase the production capacity.

隨著時代的演進,行動裝置的顯示面板之尺寸愈來愈大且高屏占比的需求也逐漸提高,窄邊框的行動裝置開始問世。顯示面板的驅動晶片封裝由過去的玻璃覆晶結合(Chip on Glass,COG)製程慢慢地被薄膜覆晶結合(Chip on Film,COF)製程所取代,以滿足窄邊框的需求。 With the evolution of the times, the size of the display panels of mobile devices has become larger and the demand for high screen-to-body ratios has gradually increased, and mobile devices with narrow bezels have begun to come out. The driver chip package of the display panel is gradually replaced by the chip on glass (COG) process in the past by the chip on film (COF) process to meet the needs of narrow bezels.

具體來說,請參考第1圖及第2圖,第1圖為玻璃覆晶結合製程封裝的顯示裝置1與薄膜覆晶結合製程封裝的顯示裝置2之示意圖,第2圖為玻璃覆晶結合製程封裝的顯示裝置1的外觀圖。顯示裝置1包含一基板10、一顯示面板11、一驅動晶片12及一連接模組13。顯示面板11設置於基板10上,若以智慧型手機或平板電腦為例,且基板10上未被顯示面板11覆蓋的區域即為慣稱的邊框14。於玻璃覆晶結合製程中,驅動晶片12設置於基板10的邊框14區域並電連接於顯示面板11。連接模組13一般為一軟性印刷電路板(Flexible Printed Circuit,FPC),其設置於基板10上以經由基板10電連接顯示面板11,並且連接模組13還電連接於驅動晶片12,且在顯示裝置1組裝時,部分的連接模組13將被彎折至基板10的 背面(第2圖為攤開連接模組13之示意圖,即連接模組13尚未彎折),使得驅動晶片12與顯示面板11係位於基板10的同一側(即基板10的正面),因此邊框14至少需容納驅動晶片12與部分之連接模組13。相較之下,於薄膜覆晶結合製程中,顯示裝置2同樣包含一基板20、一顯示面板21、一驅動晶片22及一連接模組23。惟,薄膜覆晶結合製程與玻璃覆晶結合製程的差異在於:驅動晶片22可以封裝於連接模組23上,故將部分的連接模組23彎折至基板20的背面時,驅動晶片22與顯示面板21係位於基板20的不同側,因此邊框不需容納驅動晶片22,如此可大幅減少邊框的面積,以滿足窄邊框的需求。一般而言,薄膜覆晶結合製程封裝透過讓驅動晶片22不佔用邊框的空間,可使邊框節省約1.5公釐(mm)左右的寬度。 Specifically, please refer to Figures 1 and 2. Figure 1 is a schematic diagram of a display device 1 packaged by a chip-on-glass process and a display device 2 packaged by a film-on-glass process. Figure 2 is a chip-on-glass process. The external view of the display device 1 packaged in the process. The display device 1 includes a substrate 10, a display panel 11, a driving chip 12 and a connection module 13. The display panel 11 is disposed on the substrate 10, if a smartphone or a tablet computer is taken as an example, and the area on the substrate 10 not covered by the display panel 11 is the so-called frame 14. In the chip-on-glass bonding process, the driver chip 12 is disposed on the frame 14 area of the substrate 10 and is electrically connected to the display panel 11. The connection module 13 is generally a flexible printed circuit board (FPC), which is disposed on the substrate 10 to be electrically connected to the display panel 11 through the substrate 10, and the connection module 13 is also electrically connected to the driving chip 12, and When the display device 1 is assembled, part of the connection module 13 will be bent to the substrate 10 The back side (Figure 2 is a schematic diagram of the connection module 13 spread out, that is, the connection module 13 has not been bent), so that the driver chip 12 and the display panel 11 are located on the same side of the substrate 10 (that is, the front side of the substrate 10), so the frame 14 at least needs to accommodate the driver chip 12 and part of the connection module 13. In contrast, in the thin film flip chip bonding process, the display device 2 also includes a substrate 20, a display panel 21, a driving chip 22, and a connection module 23. However, the difference between the film-on-chip bonding process and the chip-on-glass bonding process is that the driver chip 22 can be packaged on the connection module 23, so when a part of the connection module 23 is bent to the back of the substrate 20, the driver chip 22 and The display panel 21 is located on different sides of the substrate 20, so the frame does not need to accommodate the driving chip 22, so that the area of the frame can be greatly reduced to meet the requirement of a narrow frame. Generally speaking, a thin film-on-chip integrated process package can save the width of the frame by about 1.5 millimeters (mm) by allowing the driver chip 22 to not occupy the space of the frame.

透過薄膜覆晶結合製程所製成的顯示裝置2雖可減少邊框的面積,然其技術門檻較高,造成整體製作成本也相對較高,更會使產能受到限制;而玻璃覆晶結合製程所製成的顯示裝置1雖製作成本較低,但邊框可被減少幅度卻是受限的,不易達到窄邊框的效果。 Although the display device 2 manufactured by the thin film-on-chip bonding process can reduce the area of the frame, its technical threshold is relatively high, resulting in a relatively high overall production cost, and also restricts the production capacity; and the glass-on-glass bonding process Although the manufacturing cost of the manufactured display device 1 is relatively low, the extent that the frame can be reduced is limited, and it is not easy to achieve the effect of a narrow frame.

因此,本發明的主要目的即在於提供一種顯示裝置,有別於先前技術必須採用技術門檻較高的薄膜覆晶結合製程封裝,且亦能滿足窄邊框的需求。 Therefore, the main purpose of the present invention is to provide a display device, which is different from the prior art, which must be packaged with a thin-film-on-chip bonding process with a higher technical threshold, and can also meet the needs of narrow bezels.

請參閱第3圖,第3圖為本發明實施例的一顯示裝置3的示意圖。顯示裝置3係可透過玻璃覆晶結合製程封裝,其包含一基板30、一顯示面板31、兩個驅動晶片32及一連接模組33。顯示面板31用來顯示畫面,且顯示面板31可為一薄膜電晶體液晶顯示器(TFT-LCD),但不以此為限。顯示面板31、兩個驅動晶片32與連接模組33係設置於基板30上,驅動晶片32電連接於顯示面板31,且用來驅動顯示面板31,每一驅動晶片32為一積體電路顯示驅動晶片,故其具有相互垂的一長邊方向L及一短邊方向W。連接模組33電連接於驅動晶片32及基板30,並控制驅動晶片32驅動顯示面板31。其中,顯示面板31具有數條(例如n條) 源極線,且顯示面板包含數個(例如2個)區域,且每個區域包含該數條源極線中的一部分(例如n/2條)。每一驅動晶片32與顯示面板31的其中一區域電連接,以分別驅動顯示面板31的數個區域,具體來說,兩個驅動晶片32分別驅動顯示面板31的左半部區域與右半部區域。值得注意的是,本實施例是以兩個驅動晶片32為例,故將顯示面板31劃分為兩個區域,但在其他實施例中,也可為三個或以上的驅動晶片,不以本實施例所揭露的態樣為限。更進一步來說,兩個驅動晶片32於長邊方向L上彼此相間隔,每一個驅動晶片32電連接朝顯示面板31延伸並電連接至顯示面板31的複數條傳輸線321,每一條傳輸線321是由驅動晶片32相鄰顯示面板31的邊緣朝顯示面板31延伸,使顯示面板31與驅動晶片32之距離縮短。連接模組33包括一電路板331及設置於電路板331上且電連接於兩個驅動晶片32的複數個電連接部332。其中,電路板331為一軟性印刷電路板,可被彎折至顯示面板31的背面,而第3圖僅為電路板331尚未彎折之示意圖,然而實際上在顯示裝置3組裝時,電路板331可被彎折至基板30的背面。 Please refer to FIG. 3, which is a schematic diagram of a display device 3 according to an embodiment of the present invention. The display device 3 can be packaged through a chip-on-glass bonding process, and includes a substrate 30, a display panel 31, two driving chips 32, and a connection module 33. The display panel 31 is used to display images, and the display panel 31 can be a thin film transistor liquid crystal display (TFT-LCD), but is not limited to this. The display panel 31, the two driving chips 32 and the connection module 33 are arranged on the substrate 30. The driving chip 32 is electrically connected to the display panel 31 and used to drive the display panel 31. Each driving chip 32 is an integrated circuit display The driving chip has a long side direction L and a short side direction W which are perpendicular to each other. The connection module 33 is electrically connected to the driving chip 32 and the substrate 30 and controls the driving chip 32 to drive the display panel 31. Among them, the display panel 31 has several (for example, n) The source line, and the display panel includes several (for example, 2) areas, and each area includes a part (for example, n/2) of the several source lines. Each drive chip 32 is electrically connected to one area of the display panel 31 to drive several areas of the display panel 31. Specifically, the two drive chips 32 drive the left half area and the right half of the display panel 31 respectively. area. It is worth noting that this embodiment takes two driver chips 32 as an example, so the display panel 31 is divided into two areas. However, in other embodiments, there may also be three or more driver chips. The aspects disclosed in the embodiments are limited. Furthermore, the two driving chips 32 are spaced apart from each other in the longitudinal direction L, and each driving chip 32 is electrically connected to a plurality of transmission lines 321 extending toward the display panel 31 and electrically connected to the display panel 31, and each transmission line 321 is The edge of the display panel 31 adjacent to the driving chip 32 extends toward the display panel 31, so that the distance between the display panel 31 and the driving chip 32 is shortened. The connection module 33 includes a circuit board 331 and a plurality of electrical connection portions 332 disposed on the circuit board 331 and electrically connected to the two driving chips 32. The circuit board 331 is a flexible printed circuit board that can be bent to the back of the display panel 31, and Figure 3 is only a schematic diagram of the circuit board 331 that has not been bent. However, in fact, when the display device 3 is assembled, the circuit board 331 can be bent to the back of the substrate 30.

比較先前技術的第2圖與本實施例的第3圖可知,相較於僅以單一個驅動晶片12驅動顯示面板11全部源極線的現有技術,本實施例的顯示裝置3透過兩個驅動晶片32的結構與排列設計,可使複數條傳輸線321的延伸長度減少,進而大幅縮短顯示面板31與驅動晶片32之間的距離。舉例來說,若先前技術的顯示裝置1與本實施例的顯示裝置3應用的顯示面板11、31具有相同解析度:720x1520,該等顯示面板的尺寸一般為4~6吋,且所需的驅動晶片尺寸常見為28000um x 900um或相近的大小,在先前技術中,顯示面板11與驅動晶片12之間在短邊方向W上的距離大約為2.2公釐;在本實施例中,藉由減少複數條傳輸線321的延伸長度,顯示面板31與驅動晶片32之間在短邊方向W上的距離d1可縮減至大約為0.9公釐;換言之,針對上述範例,應用本發明實施例將可使邊框於該 短邊方向W上節省約1.3公釐左右的寬度,與薄膜覆晶結合製程的邊框節省效果(約1.5公釐)已相去無幾,同樣可達到窄邊框的效果。 Comparing FIG. 2 of the prior art with FIG. 3 of this embodiment, it can be seen that, compared to the prior art in which only a single driver chip 12 drives all the source lines of the display panel 11, the display device 3 of this embodiment uses two drivers The structure and arrangement design of the chip 32 can reduce the extension length of the plurality of transmission lines 321, thereby greatly shortening the distance between the display panel 31 and the driving chip 32. For example, if the display panels 11, 31 applied to the display device 1 of the prior art and the display device 3 of this embodiment have the same resolution: 720x1520, the size of the display panels is generally 4-6 inches, and the required The size of the driver chip is usually 28000um x 900um or a similar size. In the prior art, the distance between the display panel 11 and the driver chip 12 in the short-side direction W is about 2.2 mm; in this embodiment, by reducing The extension length of the plurality of transmission lines 321 and the distance d1 in the short-side direction W between the display panel 31 and the driving chip 32 can be reduced to approximately 0.9 mm; For that The width of about 1.3 mm is saved in the short-side direction W, and the frame saving effect (about 1.5 mm) of the film-on-chip integration process is almost the same, and the effect of a narrow frame can also be achieved.

針對不同需求,本發明的實施例也可藉由不同的結構設計來達到類似的功效。請參閱第4圖,第4圖為本發明實施例的一顯示裝置4的示意圖。顯示裝置4包含一基板40、一顯示面板41、一驅動晶片42及一連接模組43。其中,連接模組43包括一電路板431,電路板431可設置於驅動晶片42於長邊方向L上的兩側之其中一側。在第4圖中,電路板431係設置於驅動晶片42於長邊方向L上的右側,且電路板431具有複數個供電連接於驅動晶片42的電連接部432,且驅動晶片42電連接朝電路板431延伸並電連接至電連接部432的複數條傳輸線422。每一條傳輸線422可沿長邊方向L朝電路板431延伸以和電連接部432進行電連接。如此,電路板431仍然可以在顯示裝置4組裝時,被彎折至基板40的背面,然而,用來電連接驅動晶片42與電路板431的複數條傳輸線422以及電連接部432並不會在短邊方向W上佔用邊框的空間。 For different needs, the embodiments of the present invention can also achieve similar effects through different structural designs. Please refer to FIG. 4, which is a schematic diagram of a display device 4 according to an embodiment of the present invention. The display device 4 includes a substrate 40, a display panel 41, a driving chip 42 and a connection module 43. The connection module 43 includes a circuit board 431, and the circuit board 431 can be disposed on one of the two sides of the driving chip 42 in the longitudinal direction L. In Figure 4, the circuit board 431 is disposed on the right side of the driver chip 42 in the longitudinal direction L, and the circuit board 431 has a plurality of electrical connection portions 432 connected to the driver chip 42 for power supply, and the driver chip 42 is electrically connected toward The circuit board 431 extends and is electrically connected to the plurality of transmission lines 422 of the electrical connection part 432. Each transmission line 422 may extend toward the circuit board 431 along the longitudinal direction L to be electrically connected to the electrical connection part 432. In this way, the circuit board 431 can still be bent to the back of the substrate 40 when the display device 4 is assembled. However, the plurality of transmission lines 422 and the electrical connection portions 432 used to electrically connect the driver chip 42 and the circuit board 431 are not short. Occupies the space of the frame in the side direction W.

更詳言之,比較先前技術的第1、2圖與本實施例的第4圖可知,在先前技術中,由於驅動晶片12是沿短邊方向W延伸的傳輸線來電連接至連接模組13的電連接部,這些電連接部無法如連接模組13的其他部分被彎折至基板10的背面,因此將會在短邊方向W上佔用邊框14的空間。舉例而言在常見情況下,此連接模組13的電連接部下緣與驅動晶片12之間在短邊方向W上的距離d2大約為1.4公釐,此即相當於在短邊方向W上佔用邊框14約1.4公釐左右的寬度。而在本實施例中,由於用來電連接驅動晶片42與電路板431的複數條傳輸線422以及電連接部432並不會在短邊方向W上佔用邊框的空間;換言之,應用本發明實施例將可使邊框於該短邊方向W上節省約1.4公釐左右的寬度,與薄膜覆晶結合製 程的邊框節省效果(約1.5公釐)已相去無幾,同樣可達到窄邊框的效果。 In more detail, comparing Figures 1 and 2 of the prior art with Figure 4 of this embodiment, it can be seen that in the prior art, since the driver chip 12 is electrically connected to the connection module 13 by a transmission line extending in the short-side direction W The electrical connection parts, which cannot be bent to the back of the substrate 10 like other parts of the connection module 13, will occupy the space of the frame 14 in the short-side direction W. For example, in a common situation, the distance d2 between the lower edge of the electrical connection portion of the connection module 13 and the drive chip 12 in the short-side direction W is approximately 1.4 mm, which is equivalent to occupying the short-side direction W The frame 14 has a width of about 1.4 mm. In this embodiment, since the plurality of transmission lines 422 and the electrical connection portion 432 used to electrically connect the driving chip 42 and the circuit board 431 do not occupy the space of the frame in the short-side direction W; in other words, the application of the present invention will The width of the frame in the short-side direction W can be saved by about 1.4 mm, which is combined with thin film flip chip The frame saving effect (approximately 1.5 mm) of Cheng is almost the same, and the effect of narrow frame can also be achieved.

In this embodiment, since the driver chip 92 is directly disposed on the second surface 9311b of the connection module 93 Therefore, the structure used to electrically connect the circuit board 931 and the driving chip 92 does not occupy the space of the frame in the short-side direction W. Therefore, the application of the embodiment of the present invention can save the width of the frame in the short-side direction W by about 1.4 mm, and the design of the two drive chips 92 can save the frame in the short-side direction W by about 1.3 mm. The width of about 10 centimetres can easily achieve the effect of narrow frame, and the frame saving effect achieved by the embodiment of the present invention is achieved when the driver chip 92 cannot be bent to the back of the substrate 90 without using the film-on-chip bonding process package. (Approximately 2.7 mm) is actually beyond the edge of the film-on-chip bonding process Frame saving effect (approximately 1.5 mm). Furthermore, since in this embodiment, signals can be directly input/output to each driver chip 92 through the second surface 9311b, if the number of driver chips is designed to be three or more, no matter the inner or outer driver chips can pass through The circuit board inputs/outputs signals, and at the same time, it can avoid the problem of long wiring that affects the signal transmission quality.
