Abstract

A display device including a display panel having a display area and a non-display area, the non-display area being disposed at a peripheral portion of the display area and having a bending area; an integrated circuit (IC) disposed in the non-display area to drive the display panel; a first layer formed between the display area and the IC and covering the bending area; and a first member covering the IC and the first layer and overlapping with the bending area.

Claims (46)

1. A display device comprising:

a display panel having a display area and a non-display area, the non-display area being disposed at a peripheral portion of the display area;

an integrated circuit (IC) electrically connected to the display panel, the IC disposed below the display panel and overlapping the display panel;

an output pad unit disposed in the non-display area;

a flexible printed circuit board electrically connected to the output pad unit; and

a first member covering the IC and completely overlapping the IC in a plan view,

wherein the first member contacts only one surface of the IC which is opposite the display panel.

2. A display device comprising:

a display panel having a display area and a non-display area, the non-display area being disposed at a peripheral portion of the display area;

an integrated circuit (IC) electrically connected to the display panel, the IC disposed below the display panel and overlapping the display panel;

an output pad unit disposed in the non-display area;

a flexible printed circuit board electrically connected to the output pad unit;

a first member covering the IC; and

a ground electrode disposed on the flexible printed circuit board,

wherein the first member is connected to the ground electrode.

3. The display device of claim 2 , wherein:

the first member comprises a first cover member having a first insulating layer, a conductive layer disposed on the first insulating layer, a second insulating layer disposed on the conductive layer, and an opening exposing a portion of the conductive layer through the first insulating layer; and

the portion of the conductive layer contacts the ground electrode via the opening.

4. The display device of claim 1 , wherein the first member extends to the flexible printed circuit board to cover at least a portion of the flexible printed circuit board.

5. The display device of claim 4 , wherein the first member overlaps the non-display area of the display panel.

6. The display device of claim 5 , further comprising a first layer formed between the display area and the IC.

7. The display device of claim 6 , further comprising:

a polarization layer disposed on the display panel;

a first adhesive layer disposed on the polarization layer; and

a cover window disposed on the first adhesive layer.

8. The display device of claim 7 , wherein:

the first member contacts the first adhesive layer;

a portion of the first member is disposed between the first adhesive layer and the first layer; and

the first layer and the first member abut the polarization layer.

9. The display device of claim 8 further comprising a support panel disposed between the display area and the IC,

wherein the first layer comprises a protective layer and the first member comprises a first cover member.

10. The display device of claim 9 , wherein the first member comprises a first insulating layer, a conductive layer disposed on the first insulating layer, and a second insulating layer disposed on the conductive layer.

11. The display device of claim 10 , wherein the first insulating layer abuts the IC.

12. The display device of claim 10 , wherein:

the first insulating layer comprises a first non-conductive adhesive layer;

the conductive layer comprises a conductive adhesive layer; and

the second insulating layer comprises a second non-conductive adhesive layer.

13. A display device comprising:

a display panel having a display area and a non-display area, the non-display area being disposed at a peripheral portion of the display area;

an integrated circuit electrically connected to the display panel, the integrated circuit disposed below the display panel and overlapping the display panel;

an output pad unit disposed in the non-display area;

a flexible printed circuit board electrically connected to the output pad unit; and

a first member covering the integrated circuit,

wherein:

the first member contacts the integrated circuit; and

the first member comprises a first insulating layer, a conductive layer disposed on the first insulating layer, and a second insulating layer disposed on the conductive layer.
