The disclosure discloses an array substrate, a display panel, and a display device. A first power signal line is configured to be formed by electrically connecting a first signal line located in a first source-drain metal layer and a second signal line located in a second source-drain metal layer through a via hole, which is equivalent to that the first power signal line is composed of the first signal line and the second signal line connected in parallel, and the equivalent resistance of the parallel-connected first signal line and second signal line included in the first power signal line is smaller than the resistance of any of the signal lines. Thus, the resistance of the first power signal line may be effectively reduced, so that an IR drop of a display panel with an array substrate may be reduced, and the display uniformity of the display panel is improved.

An Ethernet power supply receives a DC voltage through a bus positive terminal and a bus negative terminal, and is coupled to a load device. The Ethernet power supply includes a first control module and a second control module. The first control module provides a first control signal through the bus negative terminal to confirm whether the load device is a valid load. The second control module is used to connect or disconnect a coupling relationship between the bus positive terminal and the first control module according to whether the load device is connected to the Ethernet power supply.

BOARD WORK DEVICE AND BOARD WORK SYSTEM

In a board work system, the CPU of a board work device transmits error related information which relates to an error in a case where the error has occurred in the own device. Then, the CPU receives the error related information which relates to the error of the other board work device, and stores the received error related information in the HDD. Then, the display operation section is controlled such that information (other device error notification screen) based on the stored error related information is notified to the operator in a case where the power source of the board work device (other board work device), in which the error has occurred, is detected to be switched off.
