  • Touch panel and method of fabricating the same
    Patent number: 9158343
    Abstract: A touch panel includes a substrate, a first patterned conductive layer, a patterned passivation layer, and a second patterned conductive layer. The first patterned conductive layer is located on the substrate, and the first patterned conductive layer includes a plurality of first sensing pads and a plurality of second sensing pads, wherein a gap is formed between adjacent first and second sensing pads. The patterned passivation layer is located on the first patterned conductive layer, and the patterned passivation layer covers the gap and exposes at least a portion of each first sensing pad and at least a portion of each second sensing pad. The second patterned conductive layer is located on the patterned passivation layer.
    Type: Grant

  • Touch panel and peripheral circuit thereof
    Patent number: 8427446
    Abstract: A touch panel and a peripheral circuit thereof are provided. Each bonding pad of the peripheral circuit includes a first conductive layer, a first protective layer, a second conductive layer, and a second protective layer sequentially arranged on a substrate from bottom to top. A covered area of the second conductive layer provided by the second protective layer is increased to cover a portion of the second conductive layer located above a junction area between the first protective layer and a terminal part of the first conductive layer, thereby increasing the reliability of the bonding pads.
