Displays with data lines that accommodate openings

A display comprising:

• a substrate having an active area that includes an array of pixels and an opening within the active area, wherein the opening has first and second opposing sides and is surrounded by a border region;
• a plurality of gate lines coupled to the array of pixels;
• and
• a plurality of data lines coupled to the array of pixels, wherein a subset of the plurality of data lines are rerouted within the border region from the first side to the second side, wherein the subset of the plurality of data lines has portions in the border region that are formed from a first metal layer that is formed in a first plane, a second metal layer that is formed in a second plane that is lower than the first plane, and a third metal layer that is formed in a third plane that is lower than the second plane, wherein the first metal layer has a first portion formed in the border region and a second portion formed in the active area that is not electrically connected to the first portion, wherein the first portion of the first metal layer forms some of the subset of the plurality of data lines, and wherein the second portion of the first metal layer forms a positive power supply distribution line.

A display comprising:

• a substrate having an active area that includes an array of pixels, an inactive area that surrounds the active area, and an opening within the active area, wherein the opening has first and second opposing sides;
• a plurality of gate lines coupled to the array of pixels;
• and
• a plurality of data lines coupled to the array of pixels, wherein a first portion of the plurality of data lines are uninterrupted by the opening and a second portion of the plurality of data lines are interrupted by the opening, wherein each data line in the second portion of the plurality of data lines has a first data line segment on the first side of the opening, a second data line segment on the second side of the opening, and a supplemental data line path that is routed through the active area and that is electrically connected to the first data line segment and the second data line segment, and wherein each supplemental data line path is electrically connected to a respective first data line segment in the inactive area.

A display having an active area with an array of pixels and an inactive area that surrounds the active area, the display comprising:

• a substrate that has a physical opening within the active area;
• a first metal layer that forms at least a portion of a plurality of data lines;
• a second metal layer formed over the first metal layer, wherein the second metal layer has a first portion in the active area that forms a positive power supply distribution path and a second portion in a border region around the physical opening that forms an additional portion of a first subset of the plurality of data lines;
• and
• a third metal layer formed under the first metal layer in the border region around the physical opening, wherein the third metal layer forms an additional portion of a second subset of the plurality of data lines.
