Abstract

An electro-optical device includes a test circuit for testing drive of a plurality of pixel units and a plurality of test terminals that output inputted signals to the test circuit or that output signals inputted from the test circuit. The test terminals including a first test terminal input with a high frequency signal with a frequency higher than a frequency of a signal output from a second terminal. A third test terminal is interposed between the first test terminal and the second test terminal.

Claims (9)

1. An electro-optical device comprising:

a substrate;

a plurality of pixel units arrayed over the substrate;

a test circuit provided over the substrate and being for testing drive of the plurality of pixel units; and

a plurality of test terminals that output inputted signals to the test circuit or that output signals inputted from the test circuit, the test terminals including a first test terminal, a second test terminal, and a third test terminal, the first test terminal being input with a high frequency signal with a frequency higher than a frequency of a signal output from the second terminal, the third test terminal being interposed between the first test terminal and the second test terminal.

2. The electro-optical device according to claim 1 , wherein the test terminals is arrayed in such a manner that the second test terminals is not adjacent to the first test terminal thereof through which a clock signal is inputted.

3. The electro-optical device according to claim 2 , wherein the test circuit sequentially transfers a start signal; and the test terminals is arrayed in such a manner that the second test terminals is not adjacent to the first test terminal thereof through which the start signal is inputted.

4. The electro-optical device according to claim 1 that is manufactured from a large-size substrate that includes a plurality of the substrates by cutting the large-size substrate into a plurality of the substrates, wherein the test terminals is arrayed over each substrate in such a manner that each of a certain area side of the second test terminal formed on one of two arbitrary-selected substrates, which is formed adjacent to each other on the uncut large-size substrate, is not adjacent to the first test terminal at the opposite area side of the other of the two arbitrary-selected substrates.

5. An electronic apparatus that is provided with the electro-optical device according to claim 1 .
