Field: Audio-visual technology (Electrical engineering)
Classification: CPC G  H | IPC G  H

Claim 13:
14. A display, comprising:
an array of pixels including first and second rows of pixels, wherein the first row has fewer pixels than the second row;
a pixel-free region that interrupts the first row of pixels;
an input-output component located in the pixel-free region;
control lines coupled to the array of pixels, wherein the control lines include first and second control lines respectively coupled to the first and second rows of pixels and wherein the first control line extends across the pixel-free region;
signal paths that are orthogonal to the control lines and that are coupled to the array of pixels, wherein the signal paths include a first signal path that extends into the pixel-free region; and
a conductive layer in the pixel-free region, wherein the conductive layer and the first signal path overlap the first control line to compensate for a loading difference between the first and second control lines, and wherein the array of pixels comprises a common voltage layer having a first portion that forms a common electrode in the array of pixels and a second portion that biases the conductive layer.
