Display device for preventing arcing between boundary surface of mask for covering pad area and pad electrode and method of manufacturing the same
A display device includes a first substrate where a display area and a non-display are defined, wherein a plurality of pixels are arranged at the display area and the non-display area surrounds the display area; a dam surrounding the display area and arranged at the non-display area; an organic light emitting diode provided in the display area; an encapsulation film disposed on the organic light emitting diode; a buffer layer disposed on the encapsulation film; an insulating film disposed on the buffer layer; a pad area arranged outside the dam, wherein the buffer layer and the insulating film extend from the display area to the pad area; a link line disposed between the dam and the first substrate; and a routing line provided on the insulating layer between the display area and the pad area.
1. A display device comprising:
a first substrate including a display area and a non-display area adjacent to the display area, wherein a plurality of pixels are arranged at the display area;
a pad area arranged in the non-display area;
a dam disposed between the display area and the pad area;
an organic light emitting diode provided in the display area;
an encapsulation layer disposed on the organic light emitting diode;
an insulating layer disposed on the encapsulation layer and provided in the display area;
a touch electrode disposed on the insulating layer; and
a touch line disposed on the insulating layer and provided between the display area and the pad area; and
a passivation layer disposed on the touch electrode,
wherein the insulating layer is extended to the pad area,
wherein the touch line is electrically connected to the pad electrode provided in the pad area,
wherein the touch line contacts the pad electrode through a pad contact hole, and
wherein the pad contact hole is disposed in the pad area and passes through the insulating layer.
