BACKGROUND OF THE DISCLOSURE

1. Field of the Disclosure

The present disclosure relates to a display device, and more particularly, a display device which integrates a display function and fingerprint scanning function.

2. Description of the Prior Art

As mobile devices become more and more widely used, mobile devices often can perform biometric recognition, for example, verification of a user's identity can be achieved by recognizing the user's fingerprint.

For example, a mobile device can use a photosensitive element to capture the fingerprint characteristics of the user for identification. In particular, to facilitate user operations, the photosensitive element is integrated with the display panel of the mobile device. In this case, both the circuits for driving the photosensitive elements and the circuit for driving the display panel are arranged in the peripheral area of the display panel, which makes it difficult to reduce the width of the peripheral area of the display panel.

SUMMARY OF THE DISCLOSURE

An embodiment discloses a display device comprising a peripheral circuit, a display gate line and a fingerprint gate line. The peripheral circuit comprises a demultiplexer. The display gate line is electrically connected to the demultiplexer for transmitting a display scan signal. The fingerprint gate line is electrically connected to the demultiplexer for transmitting a fingerprint scan signal.

These and other objectives of the present disclosure will no doubt become obvious to those of ordinary skill in the art after reading the following detailed description of the embodiment that is illustrated in the various figures and drawings.
