Abstract

The present disclosure provides an array substrate and a display panel. The array substrate includes a base substrate and at least one signal line unit in a fan-out region of the base substrate. Each of the at least one signal line unit includes two first signal lines and one second signal line, and the two first signal lines and the one second signal line are respectively in different layers and extend in a same direction. A center line of an orthographic projection of the one second signal line on the base substrate overlaps with a center line of an orthographic projection of an interval region between the two first signal lines.
