1. A display panel, comprising:
- a first substrate having a display area and a peripheral area;
a plurality of pixel units, arranged on the display area in an array;
a plurality of first signal lines, disposed on the peripheral area and electrically connected to corresponding pixel units, the plurality of first signal lines comprising a plurality of first sets of sub-signal lines and a plurality of second sets of sub-signal lines alternatively arranged, each first set of sub-signal lines having a first sub-signal line and a second sub-signal line, each second set of sub-signal lines having the first sub-signal line and the second sub-signal line, first sub-signal lines of the first sets of sub-signal lines and of the second sets of sub-signal lines and second sub-signal lines of the first sets of sub-signal lines and of the second sets of sub-signal lines being formed on different layers;
a first testing line, electrically connected to the first and second sub-signal lines of the first sets of sub-signal lines; and
a second testing line, electrically connected to the first and second sub-signal lines of the second sets of sub-signal lines.

Abstract
A display panel includes a first substrate, a plurality of pixel units, a plurality of first signal lines, a first testing line and a second testing line. The first signal lines are disposed on a peripheral area and electrically connected to corresponding pixel units. The first signal lines include a plurality of first sets of signal lines and a plurality of second sets of signal lines alternatively arranged. The first and second sets of signal lines are formed on different layers. The first testing line is electrically connected to the first sets of signal lines. The second testing line is electrically connected to the second sets of signal lines.
