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 method of manufacturing display panel, the method comprising:
forming a substrate having a first signal line disposed on a peripheral area, a driving part formed at the substrate and electrically connected to the first signal line, a second signal line electrically coupled to the driving part, an inspection signal line connected to the first signal line and a pixel part formed on the substrate and electrically coupled to the second signal line;
providing an inspection signal to the driving part through the inspection signal line thereby driving the pixel part so as to inspect the substrate; and
removing the inspection line
so that a first end of the first signal line is electrically coupled to the driving part and a second end of the first signal line extends to an edge of the substrate.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein removing the inspection line comprises grinding the substrate with the inspection line.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first signal line transmits a control signal to the driving part and the driving part provide a scanning signal to the pixel part.
4. The method of claim 3 , wherein the control signal is one of a start signal, a clock signal and a driving voltage input signal.
5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first signal line comprises a start signal input line, a clock signal input line and a driving voltage input line.
6. The method of claim 5 , wherein the driving voltage input line has a width wider than those of the start signal input line and clock signal input line.
7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the pixel part comprises a plurality of gate lines extending to a first direction, a plurality of data lines extending to a second direction and a plurality of thin film transistor electrically coupled to the data lines and the gate lines, wherein the driving part provides a gate signal to the gate lines.
8. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first signal line transmits a control signal to the driving part and the driving part provide a scanning signal to the pixel part.
9. The method of claim 8 , wherein the control signal is one of a start signal, a clock signal and a driving voltage input signal.
10. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first signal line comprises a start signal input line, a clock signal input line and a driving voltage input line.
11. The method of claim 10 , wherein the driving voltage input line has a width wider than those of the start signal input line and clock signal input line.
