METHOD FOR INSPECTING TOUCH-PANEL ELECTRODE SUBSTRATE

摘要

Provided is a method for inspecting a touch panel with which method it is possible to perform an inspection with high accuracy and to allow an improvement in yield. A drive signal is supplied to either one of sensor electrodes (12) and an inspection electrode (142), a plurality of sense signals related to the respective sensor electrodes (12) are obtained from the other of the sensor electrodes and the inspection electrode, and conditions of the sensor electrodes (12) are determined according to the sense signals.
