Liquid crystal display and a method of measuring a capacitance of a liquid crystal display

Abstract

A liquid crystal display including: a display area which includes an upper substrate, a lower substrate, pixels and a liquid crystal layer interposed between the upper and lower substrates; and a measuring unit including a tag portion, a common voltage applying portion, and a pixel voltage applying portion, in which the common voltage applying portion and the tag portion, and the pixel voltage applying portion and the tag portion are connected to each other, a data conductor, a common electrode, a passivation layer, and a pixel electrode are disposed on the common voltage applying portion with substantially the same thickness as at least one of the pixels of the display area, a first part of the data conductor of the common voltage applying portion directly contacts the pixel electrode, and a second part of the data conductor of the common voltage applying portion directly contacts the common electrode.
