  • Publication number: 20070064192
    Abstract: A liquid crystal display apparatus that can detect a signal in an input signal wire and perform tests by measuring the resistance of the wire even without any signal input substrate is disclosed. The liquid crystal display apparatus includes an almost quadrilateral liquid crystal panel having a liquid crystal display part and a plurality of first drive IC substrates. The first drive IC substrates are aligned along an edge of the liquid crystal panel and connected to the liquid crystal panel. Each first drive IC substrate has a first drive IC and further includes a through wire to connect between distinct terminals of a plurality of terminals aligned along an edge thereof, and a test pad is formed on a portion of the through wire.

  • Patent number: 7187423
    Abstract: It is an object of the invention to provide a display and a method for repairing defects of the same in which defects such as inter-layer short-circuits and short-circuits in a single that have occurred at steps for manufacturing the display can be easily repaired to provide a good product with a probability higher than that in the related art. Laser irradiation is carried out as a first cycle of laser irradiation by forming a slit S1 in a region where a drain bus line 220 completely covers a gate bus line 218 to form a cut portion longer than the width of the gate bus line 218 adjacent to an inter-layer short-circuit 290 such that it splits an intersecting portion of the drain bus line 220 into two parts as shown in FIG. 5b. Next, as shown in FIG. 5c, slits S2 and S3 are respectively used for second and third cycles of laser irradiation to cut the drain bus line 220 at both ends of the cut portion (indicated by S1), thereby isolating the inter-layer short-circuit 290 of the drain bus line 220.
