Appeal 2006-3013
Application 10/367,849
INVENTION
The invention is directed to an active matrix display. Specifically, it
relates to a layout that optimizes the display. See page 1 of Appellant’s
Specification. Claim 14 is representative of the invention and reproduced
below:
14. A display apparatus comprising:
a plurality of scanning lines;
a plurality of data lines;
a plurality of power-feed lines; and
a plurality of pixels formed in a display section, the plurality of
pixels being formed corresponding to intersections of the plurality of
scanning lines and the plurality of data lines, each pixel of the
plurality of pixels comprising a transistor and a light-emission
element having a pixel electrode and a counter electrode,
a gate electrode of the transistor being at a potential
corresponding to a signal supplied from one data line of the plurality
of data lines, and
the light-emission element emitting a light when a current
flows through the counter electrode, the pixel electrode, the transistor
and one power-feed line of the plurality of power-feed lines,
the line width of a portion of the power-feed line being set to be
wider than that of a portion of the one data line, and
the portion of the power-feed line and the portion of the one
data line being in the display section.
