Thin film transistor array panel and method of manufacturing the same

摘要

A thin film transistor array panel includes a passivation layer formed on a plurality of end portions of a plurality of gate lines. A portion of the passivation layer has a porous structure formed between a connection portion of a flexible printed circuit substrate and a thin film transistor substrate such that when the flexible printed circuit substrate and the thin film transistor array panel are connected to each other, the passivation layer having a porous structure and which is formed at the connection portion therebetween connects the flexible printed circuit substrate with the thin film transistor array panel thereby minimizing an exposed area of the metal of the connection portion to improve a corrosion resistance thereof.
