Abstract

A display device including: a first test pad disposed on a substrate; a detection pad disposed on the substrate; a first voltage pad disposed on the substrate and electrically connected to the first test pad; a ground pad disposed on the substrate and electrically connected to the detection pad through a first contact point of the detection pad; and a second voltage pad disposed on the substrate and electrically connected to the detection pad through a second contact point of the detection pad, wherein the second contact point is opposite to the first contact point in a first direction.

Claims (58)

1 . A display device comprising:

a first test pad disposed on a substrate;

a detection pad disposed on the substrate;

a first voltage pad disposed on the substrate and electrically connected to the first test pad;

a ground pad disposed on the substrate and electrically connected to the detection pad through a first contact point of the detection pad; and

a second voltage pad disposed on the substrate and electrically connected to the detection pad through a second contact point of the detection pad, wherein the second contact point is opposite to the first contact point in a first direction.

2 . The display device of claim 1 , wherein the detection pad includes a first surface facing the first test pad and a second surface opposite to the first surface in the first direction,

the first contact point is at the second surface; and

the second contact point is at the first surface.

3 . The display device of claim 2 , further comprising:

a second test pad disposed between the first test pad and the detection pad; and

a current pad electrically connected to the second test pad.

4 . The display device of claim 3 , wherein the first test pad includes a second surface facing the second test pad and a first surface opposite to the second surface, and

the first voltage pad is electrically connected to the first test pad at the first surface of the first test pad.

5 . The display device of claim 3 , wherein the second test pad includes a second surface facing the detection pad and a first surface opposite to the second surface, and

the current pad is electrically connected to the second test pad at the first surface of the second test pad.

6 . The display device of claim 1 , further comprising:

a dummy pad electrically connected to the first test pad.

7 . The display device of claim 1 , further comprising:

an integrated circuit disposed on the first test pad and the detection pad; and

an adhesive film adhering the integrated circuit to the substrate.

8 . The display device of claim 7 , wherein the integrated circuit is arranged in a chip-on-plastic (COP) method or a chip-on-glass (COG) method.

9 . The display device of claim 7 , wherein the adhesive film includes conductive balls, and

the conductive balls electrically connect the first test pad to the integrated circuit and the detection pad to the integrated circuit.

10 . The display device of claim 1 , further comprising:

a printed circuit board disposed on the first voltage pad, the ground pad, and the second voltage pad.

11 . The display device of claim 1 , wherein the detection pad includes a first surface facing the first test pad and a second surface opposite to the first surface in the first direction,

the first contact point is at the first surface, and

the second contact point is at the second surface.

12 . The display device of claim 11 , further comprising:

a second test pad disposed between the first test pad and the detection pad, and

a current pad electrically connected to the second test pad.

13 . The display device of claim 11 , further comprising:

a first dummy pad electrically connected to the first test pad; and

a second dummy pad electrically connected to the second test pad.

14 . The display device of claim 1 , further comprising:

a second test pad adjacent to a second direction perpendicular to the first direction; and

a current pad electrically connected to the second test pad.

15 . The display device of claim 14 , wherein the detection pad includes a first surface facing the first test pad and a second surface opposite to the first surface in the first direction,

the first contact point is at the second surface, and

the second contact point is at the first surface.

16 . The display device of claim 14 , wherein the detection pad includes a first surface facing the first test pad and a second surface opposite to the first surface in the first direction,

the first contact point is at the first surface, and

the second contact point is at the second surface.

17 . The display device of claim 1 , further comprising:

a second test pad disposed between the first test pad and the detection pad;

a third test pad adjacent to the first test pad; and

a dummy pad electrically connected to the third test pad.

18 . The display device of claim 17 , wherein the detection pad includes a first surface facing the first test pad and a second surface opposite to the first surface in the first direction,

the first contact point is at the second surface, and

the second contact point is at the first surface.

19 . The display device of claim 17 , wherein the detection pad includes a first surface facing the first test pad and a second surface opposite to the first surface in the first direction,

the first contact point is at the first surface, and

the second contact point is at the second surface.

20 . A display device comprising:

a first pad area including a first test pad, a second test pad and a detection pad arranged in a line in a first direction; and

a second pad area adjacent to the first pad area, the second pad area including a ground pad, a current pad, a first voltage pad and a second voltage pad arranged in a line in a second direction intersecting the first direction,

wherein the current pad is connected to the second test pad, the first voltage pad is connected to the first test pad, the ground pad is connected to a first connection point of the detection pad and the second voltage pad is connected to a second connection point of the detection pad.
