Display apparatus having test elements under or bounded by the sealant

摘要

In a LCD with a built-in driver, the quality of all elements is judged. A test TFT is formed immediately below a sealing material which bonds a TFT substrate and an opposite substrate, wherein test terminals are pulled out onto the eaves section of the TFT substrate protruding from the opposite substrate. The quality of TFTs are judged by considering changes of TFT characteristics under the conditions before and after the bonding process.
