DISPLAY APPARATUS AND METHOD OF MANUFACTURING THE SAME - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18093861 titled 'DISPLAY APPARATUS AND METHOD OF MANUFACTURING THE SAME
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes a display apparatus that includes a base substrate with a display area and a peripheral area. It also includes a source/drain pattern with a connecting electrode in the peripheral area and an electrode of a thin film transistor in the display area. A planarization insulation layer is present on the base substrate, which contacts the side surfaces of the connecting electrode and the electrode of the thin film transistor. The top surface of the connecting electrode is exposed. A connecting member is in contact with the connecting electrode, and a driving member with a driving circuit is connected to the connecting member.
- The display apparatus includes a base substrate with a display area and a peripheral area.
- A source/drain pattern is present on the base substrate, with a connecting electrode in the peripheral area and an electrode of a thin film transistor in the display area.
- A planarization insulation layer is on the base substrate, contacting the side surfaces of the connecting electrode and the electrode of the thin film transistor.
- The top surface of the connecting electrode is exposed.
- A connecting member is in contact with the connecting electrode.
- A driving member with a driving circuit is connected to the connecting member.
