Abstract

A display apparatus includes a substrate including a display area, a peripheral area surrounding the display area, a function-adding area, of which at least a portion is surrounded by the display area, and a detour area disposed between the display area and the function-adding area. The display apparatus includes a plurality of pixel circuits disposed in the display area. A plurality of driving lines are electrically connected to the pixel circuits and extend in a direction in the display area. A first detour line is disposed in the detour area and is electrically connected to a first driving line. A second detour line is disposed in the detour area. The second detour line is electrically connected to a second driving line and is disposed in a different layer from the first detour line.

Claims (26)

1. A display apparatus comprising:

a substrate including a display area, a peripheral area surrounding the display area, a function-adding area, of which at least a portion is surrounded by the display area, and a detour area disposed between the display area and the function-adding area;

a plurality of pixel circuits disposed in the display area;

a plurality of driving lines electrically connected to the pixel circuits and extending in a first direction in the display area, wherein a first driving line includes a first detour portion disposed in the detour area, and a second driving line includes a second detour portion disposed in the detour area and disposed in a different layer from the first detour portion; and

a plurality of scan lines electrically connected to the pixel circuits and extending in a second direction crossing the first direction in the display area, wherein a first scan line includes a third detour portion disposed in the detour area and disposed in a different layer from the first detour portion and the second detour portion.

2. The display apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the first and second detour portions cross the third detour portion in a plan view.

3. The display apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the first and second detour portions have a shape curving along an edge of the function-adding area in a plan view.

4. The display apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the third detour portion has a shape curving along an edge of the function-adding area in a plan view.

5. The display apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the driving lines are configured to transfer a data signal to the pixel circuits.

6. The display apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the scan lines are configured to transfer a scan signal to the pixel circuits.

7. The display apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the first scan line further includes a first portion and a second portion, which interpose the detour area and are connected to the third detour portion.

8. The display apparatus of claim 7 , wherein the third detour portion is disposed in a different layer from the first and second portions of the first scan line disposed in the display area.

9. The display apparatus of claim 8 , wherein the first detour portion is disposed in a same layer as the first and second portions of the first scan line disposed in the display area.

10. The display apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the first detour portion is disposed in a different layer from an extending portion of the first driving line disposed in the display area.

11. The display apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the second detour portion is disposed in a different layer from an extending portion of the second driving line disposed in the display area.

12. The display apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the third detour portion is disposed under the first and second detour portions.

13. The display apparatus of claim 1 , further including a plurality of light-emitting elements electrically connected to the pixel circuits.

14. The display apparatus of claim 1 , further including:

a plurality of power lines electrically connected to the pixel circuits and extending in the first direction in the display area; and

a detour bus line disposed in the detour area and electrically connected to at least one of the power lines.

15. The display apparatus of claim 14 , wherein the detour bus line is configured to a power voltage to the pixel circuits.

16. The display apparatus of claim 14 , wherein the detour bus line is disposed in a different layer from the first to third detour portions.

17. The display apparatus of claim 14 , wherein the detour bus line is disposed above the first to third detour portions.

18. The display apparatus of claim 14 , wherein the detour bus line overlaps the first to third detour portions.

19. The display apparatus of claim 14 , wherein the detour bus line has a shape curving along an edge of the function-adding area in a plan view.

20. The display apparatus of claim 14 , wherein the detour bus line is disposed in a different layer from the power lines.
