Abstract

A display device can include a display panel having an active area including a plurality of subpixels, at least one hole area surrounded by the active area, a boundary area disposed between the at least one hole area and the active area, a first gate line on the active area and the boundary area, and supplying a scan signal to a first group subpixels, a second gate line disposed on the active area and the boundary area and supplying a EM signal to the first group subpixels, a first data line disposed on the active area and the boundary area and supplying a data voltage to a second group of subpixels excluding a green subpixel, and a second data line disposed on the active area and the boundary area and supplying the data voltage to a third group subpixels including a green subpixel.

Claims (24)

1. A display device, comprising:

a display panel having an active area where a plurality of subpixels are disposed;

at least one hole area surrounded by the active area;

a boundary area disposed between the at least one hole area and the active area;

a first gate line disposed on the active area and the boundary area, and supplying a scan signal to a first group of the plurality of subpixels;

a second gate line disposed on the active area and the boundary area, and supplying a EM signal to the first group of the plurality of subpixels;

a first data line disposed on the active area and the boundary area, and supplying a data voltage to a second group of the plurality of subpixels excluding a green subpixel; and

a second data line disposed on the active area and the boundary area, and supplying the data voltage to a third group of the plurality of subpixels including a green subpixel, wherein a vertical distance between the second data line and the first gate line is greater than a vertical distance between the first data line and the first gate line.

2. The display device of claim 1 , wherein the first group of the plurality of subpixels includes a red subpixel, a green subpixel and a blue subpixel.

3. The display device of claim 1 , wherein the second group of the plurality of subpixels includes a red subpixel and a blue subpixel except a green subpixel.

4. The display device of claim 3 , wherein the third group of the plurality of subpixels includes the green subpixel except the red subpixel and the blue subpixel.

5. The display device of claim 4 , further comprising:

an insulating layer disposed between the first gate line and the first data line; and

a passivation layer disposed between the first data line and the second data line,

wherein a thickness of the insulating layer is greater than a thickness of the passivation layer.

6. The display device of claim 1 , wherein the first gate line alternates with the second gate line in one direction, and the first data line alternates with the second data line in other direction crossing the one direction.

7. The display device of claim 1 , wherein each of the first data line and the second data line overlaps both of the first gate line and the second gate line.

8. The display device of claim 1 , wherein each of the first data line and the second data line crosses both of the first gate line and the second gate line on the boundary area.

9. The display device of claim 1 , wherein each of the first gate line, the second gate line, the first data line and the second data line include a curved portion and a straight portion, and

a curved portion of the first gate line crosses a straight portion of the first data line, or a straight portion of the first gate line crosses a curved portion of the first data line.

10. The display device of claim 1 , wherein the boundary area includes a first boundary area surrounding the hole area, and a second boundary area surrounding the first boundary area, and

wherein the first gate line, the second gate line, the first data line and the second data line are disposed on the second boundary area except the first boundary area.

11. The display device of claim 10 , wherein the hole area and the first boundary area are areas that are open such that a sensor unit is disposed.

12. The display device of claim 11 , wherein signal lines for driving the sensor unit are disposed in the first boundary area.
