Abstract

The present application provides a display panel. A display area of the display panel includes pixel units, and non-display areas positioned on opposite sides of the display area are provided with a gate driver on array (GOA) bus unit. Two GOA circuit units are arranged side by side between two adjacent rows of the pixel units, and the two GOA circuit units arranged side by side are electrically connected to the pixel units. The GOA circuit units are electrically connected to the GOA bus unit through signal-connecting lines disposed in the display area, and wherein the two GOA circuit units arranged side by side share at least one of the signal-connecting lines. The present application is beneficial for increasing aperture ratio and transmittance of the pixel units.
