Abstract

An electronic device able to be operated with a first state and a second state includes a substrate and light emitting units. When the electronic device is extended along a direction from the first state to the second state, the substrate has a first width in the first state and a second width in the second state in the direction, and the second width is greater than the first width. The light emitting units are disposed on the substrate and can be in a mode of ON. The number of the light emitting units being in the mode of ON in the second state is greater than that in the first state. The numbers of the light emitting units being in the mode of ON per unit area of the substrate while in the first state and second state are respectively defined as PPA_1 and PPA_2, and 1.5×PPA_1≥PPA_2≥0.5×PPA_1.

Claims (12)

1. An electronic device, which is able to be operated with a first state and a second state, the electronic device comprising:

a substrate, wherein when the electronic device is extended along a direction from the first state to the second state, the substrate has a first width in the first state in the direction and a second width in the second state in the direction, and the second width is greater than the first width; and

a plurality of light emitting units disposed on the substrate, wherein the plurality of light emitting units can be in a mode of ON, the plurality of light emitting units being in the mode of ON in a number of N1 while in the first state, and the plurality of light emitting units being in the mode of ON in a number of N3 while in the second state, wherein N3>N1,

wherein the electronic device has a PPA_1 that is defined as a number of the plurality of light emitting units being in the mode of ON per unit area of the substrate while in the first state, and a PPA_2 that is defined as a number of the plurality of light emitting units being in the mode of ON per unit area of the substrate while in the second state, wherein 1.5×PPA_1≥PPA_2 ≥0.5×PPA_1.

2. The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the substrate comprises a plurality of pixel parts and a connecting part connecting two adjacent ones of the plurality of pixel parts, wherein when the electronic device is extended along the direction from the first state to the second state, the connecting part has a first length in the first state in the direction and a second length in the second state in the direction, and the second length is greater than the first length.

3. The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the PPA_2 is equal to the PPA_1.

4. The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein all of the plurality of light emitting units are in the mode of ON while in the second state.

5. The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein only a portion of the plurality of light emitting units are in the mode of ON while in the second state.

6. The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the plurality of light emitting units are divided into a plurality of light emitting groups, and the plurality of light emitting groups are respectively composed of a same number of light emitting units among the plurality of light emitting units of the electronic device.

7. The electronic device of claim 6 , wherein a number of the light emitting units being in the mode of ON in one of the plurality of light emitting groups while in the second state is greater than a number of the light emitting units being in the mode of ON in the one of the plurality of light emitting groups while in the first state.

8. The electronic device of claim 7 , wherein all of the light emitting units in the one of the plurality of light emitting groups are in the mode of ON while in the second state.

9. The electronic device of claim 7 , wherein only a portion of the light emitting units in the one of the plurality of light emitting groups are in the mode of ON while in the second state.
