Abstract: In a display apparatus, a display panel receives a driving signal from a driving chip through a pad and displays an image in response to the driving signal. The driving chip includes a terminal outputting the driving signal. The driving chip is mounted on the display panel using the anisotropic conductive film and electrically connected to the display panel. A lubricant layer is formed on a surface of the anisotropic conductive film to prevent an electrical defect in the connection between the driving chip and the display panel. Thus, the display apparatus may have improved yield.

Abstract: A conductive bump including a plurality of protrusion members (251) and a conductive layer (252) formed on the protrusion members is disposed on a TFT substrate (200). Each of the protrusion members is disposed on an electrode pad (270y, b, 280c, b) in a pad region (292, 293) of the TFT substrate, and the conductive layer is electrically connected to the electrode pad. A non-conductive resin (600) is disposed on the conductive bump, and a driving IC (500) is thermally compressed on the conductive bump. Therefore, the electrical contact characteristic between the driving IC and the electrode pad is improved.

Abstract: A driver chip includes a base body, an input terminal section and a first output terminal section. The base body includes a face having a long side and a short side. The input terminal section is formed at a first edge portion of the face along the long side. The first output terminal section is formed at a second edge portion that is opposite to the first edge portion. The input terminal section and the first output terminal section are disposed within about 9d/10 from a center of the long side toward the short side, wherein ‘d’ represents a distance between the center of the long side and the short side. The input and first output terminals formed on other region than an edge portion of a base body, on which stress is concentrated, enhance a reliability of electric connection between the driver chip and a display panel.

Abstract: In an anisotropic conductive film including conductive particles, and a bump, and a packaging structure of a semiconductor chip having the anisotropic conductive film and the bump, the anisotropic conductive film includes a resin layer and the conductive particles. The anisotropic conductive film electrically connects an electrode of a substrate and the bump of a semiconductor chip. A volume ratio of the conductive particles to the resin layer is about 0.1 to about 0.12. A number of the conductive particles per m3 is about 4 millions to about 7 millions. A standard deviation of heights of the bumps is no more than about 0.25. An interval between each of the bumps and an electrode of the substrate is no more than about 1.3 ?m. Therefore, the size of each of the conductive particles is optimized so that a failure probability of the open circuit is decreased.

Abstract: A driver chip includes a base body, input terminals, first output terminals and dummy terminals. The base body includes a face having first to fourth edge portions. The first and second edge portions are disposed in substantially parallel along a longitudinal side of the face, and the third and fourth edge portions are disposed in substantially parallel along a horizontal side of the face. The input terminals are formed on the first edge portion such that the input terminals are arranged along the longitudinal side. The first output terminals are formed on the second edge portion such that the first output terminals are arranged along the longitudinal side. The dummy terminals are formed such that the dummy terminals are disposed between the input terminals and the first output terminals. A warpage and defects of electrical connection between the driver chip and a display panel of the display apparatus are prevented.

A plurality of conductive bumps is disposed over a top face of the base body, the plurality of conductive bumps being arranged in a plurality of rows along the longitudinal direction of the base body. A plurality of conductive wirings is formed over the top face of the base body that electrically connects the driver circuit to the plurality of conductive bumps.

Abstract: In a drive IC and a display device having the same, the drive IC includes a plurality of bumps disposed on a lower surface of the drive IC and aligned in a plurality of rows along an edge of the drive IC. The bumps aligned in different rows from each other are juxtaposed in a direction perpendicular to a direction in which the bumps are aligned. Accordingly, when the drive IC is mounted on a display panel using an anisotropic conductive film, the anisotropic conductive film may be smoothly flowed through a space defined by the bumps of the drive IC, thereby improving electric properties of the drive IC and display device.
