Mother substrate, substrate for display panel and method of manufacturing display panel
View Patent ↗In a mother substrate for a lower substrate, a substrate for a display panel and a method of manufacturing a display panel, the substrate for the display panel includes a lower substrate and an upper substrate facing the lower substrate. The lower substrate includes an inspection line that receives a first inspection signal externally provided, a gate driving part that outputs a second inspection signal in response to the first inspection signal from the inspection line, and a pixel part driven in response to the second inspection signal. The inspection line is disposed on a grinding area. Thus, the display panel may have an enhanced productivity and an improved yield, on which the gate driving part is formed.
1. A display panel comprising:
a lower substrate having an inspection line disposed on a peripheral area and receiving an externally provided first inspection signal, a driving part formed at the lower substrate and outputting a second inspection signal in response to the first inspection signal provided through the inspection line, a plurality of input lines electrically connecting the inspection line to the driving part and a pixel part driven in response to the second inspection signal,
wherein the driving part and inspection line are electrically disconnected during normal operation of the display panel.
2. The display panel of claim 1 , wherein a plurality of the input lines is spaced apart from each other in a predetermined distance and the inspection line comprises
a connecting line electrically connected between the input lines.
3. The display panel of claim 2 , wherein end portions of the input lines are disposed on an edge portion of the lower substrate, and
the connecting line electrically connected between the end portions of the input lines is disposed on the edge portion of the lower substrate.
4. The display panel of claim 3 , wherein the lower substrate is partially grinded, the end portions of the input lines disposed on the edge portion and a portion of the connecting line disposed on the edge portion are removed while the lower substrate is grinded.
5. The display panel of claim 2 , wherein the input lines comprise a start signal input line, a clock input line and a driving voltage input line.
6. The display panel of claim 5 , wherein the driving voltage input line has a width wider than those of the start signal input line and clock input line.
