Abstract
An organic light-emitting display apparatus including improved power supply lines which may sufficiently handle high current. The organic light-emitting display apparatus includes power supply lines outside an encapsulation layer sealing the display unit to a substrate. Because the power supply lines are outside the encapsulation layer their thickness can be increased to increase the current conducting capacity of the power supply lines.
Claims12
An organic light-emitting display apparatus comprising:
- a substrate;
- a display unit on the substrate and comprising:
- a light-emitting layer, and
- first and second electrodes, wherein the light-emitting layer is configured to emit light according to voltages on the first and second electrodes;
- an encapsulation member attached to the substrate and sealing the display unit in a gap formed between the encapsulation member and the substrate;
- an input terminal unit on the substrate outside the perimeter of the encapsulation member;
- a first pad selectively connected to the first electrode, wherein the first pad includes an uncovered portion which is outside the perimeter of the encapsulation member;
- a second pad connected to the second electrode, wherein the second pad includes an uncovered portion which is outside the perimeter of the encapsulation member;
- a first power supply line electrically connecting the input terminal unit to the uncovered portion of the first pad, wherein the first power supply line is completely outside the perimeter of the encapsulation member;
- and
- a second power supply line electrically connecting the input terminal unit to the uncovered portion of the second pad, wherein the second power supply line is completely outside the perimeter of the encapsulation member.
