Abstract

A display device which includes a substrate having a pixel unit that receiving first and second voltages is disclosed. In one aspect, the first and second power lines are coupled to the first and second voltages, and are supplied to the pixel unit via first and second power pads. In some aspects, the first and second power pads are alternately disposed while being spaced apart from each other in at least a portion of the peripheral area, and the second power pads are disposed in the space between the respective first power pads.

Claims (21)

1. A display device, comprising:

a substrate having a pixel unit configured to display an image powered by a first voltage and second voltage, wherein the first and second voltages are different;

a peripheral area at the outside of the pixel unit;

first power lines through which the first voltage is supplied to the pixel unit;

second power lines through which the second voltage is supplied to the pixel unit; and

first power pads electrically coupled to the first power lines configured to provide the first voltage to the first power lines; and

second power pads electrically coupled to the second power lines configured to provide the second voltage to the second power lines;

wherein the first and second power pads are alternately disposed in at least a portion of the peripheral area along two opposite sides of the pixel unit, the first power pads being spaced apart from each other, and the second power pads being disposed in the space between the first power pads, and wherein the first power pads along one of the opposite sides are formed opposite the second power pads along the other of the opposite sides.

2. The display device according to claim 1 , wherein the first and second power pads are spaced apart from each other at a constant interval.

3. The display device according to claim 1 , wherein the first and second power lines are disposed substantially parallel to each other, the first and second power lines forming a pair.

4. The display device according to claim 1 , wherein the first and second power pads have equivalent dimensions.

5. The display device according to claim 1 , wherein the first voltage is a high voltage relative to the second voltage and the second power is a low voltage relative to the first voltage.

6. The display device according to claim 1 , wherein the pixel unit comprises pixels which each comprise an organic light emitting diode.

7. A display device, comprising:

a substrate having a pixel unit configured to display an image powered by a first voltage and second voltage, wherein the first and second voltages are different;

a peripheral area at the outside of the pixel unit;

first power lines through which the first voltage is supplied to the pixel unit;

second power lines through which the second voltage is supplied to the pixel unit; and

first power pads electrically coupled to the first power lines configured to provide the first voltage to the first power lines; and

second power pads electrically coupled to the second power lines configured to provide the second voltage to the second power lines;

wherein the first and second power pads are alternately disposed in at least a portion of the peripheral area along two opposite sides of the pixel unit, the first power pads being spaced apart from each other, and the second power pads being disposed in the space between the first power pads, and wherein the first and second power pads are arranged along opposite sides of the substrate such that at least one of the first power pads is aligned opposite another of the first power pads.
