Electronic device having optical sensor circuit on active display area with modified light guide
The present disclosure relates to an electronic device including a display screen, where an active area of the display screen includes a first display area and a second display area, and a first distribution density of controllable sub-areas in the first display area is lower than a second distribution density of the controllable sub-areas in the second display area; and an optical sensor circuit, where a projection of the optical sensor circuit on the active area of the display screen is located in the first display area, and optical sensor circuit realizes light emission to an external environment and light reception from the external environment through the first display area.
1. An electronic device, comprising:
a liquid crystal display (LCD) screen, an active area of the display screen comprising a first display area and a second display area, wherein a first distribution density of controllable liquid crystal sub-areas in the first display area is lower than a second distribution density of controllable liquid crystal sub-areas in the second display area; and
an optical sensor circuit, wherein a projection of the optical sensor circuit on the active area of the display screen is located in the first display area, and the optical sensor circuit realizes light emission to an external environment and light reception from the external environment through the first display area,
wherein the controllable liquid crystal sub-areas in the first display area and the second display area located in a liquid crystal layer of the LCD display screen are respectively driven by a plurality of driving circuits with a one-to-one correspondence; and
wherein the position of the plurality of driving circuits avoids a projection of a light emitting and receiving window of the optical sensor circuit on the liquid crystal layer.
