Patent attributes
An array substrate and a method for forming the same are provided. The array substrate includes: a gate driver in a non-display area, wherein the gate driver includes M shift register circuits and each shift register circuit includes two shift register groups, which includes N shift registers each, where M is a positive even number and N is a positive integer greater than 2; in each of the shift register groups, a gate output end of an nth shift register has signal wires; along a direction perpendicular to the non-display area, at least one of the signal wires of one shift register group are stacked above at least one of the signal wires of another shift register group. Accordingly, a display panel using this array substrate may realize a narrow side frame design.
