Abstract
A display device includes a display panel having a display area and a non-display area, the non-display area being disposed at a peripheral portion of the display area and having a bending area; an integrated circuit (IC) disposed in the non-display area to drive the display panel; a first layer formed between the display area and the IC and covering the bending area; and a first member covering the IC and the first layer and overlapping with the bending area.
Claims15
A display device comprising:
- a display panel having a display area and a non-display area, the non-display area being disposed at a peripheral portion of the display area and having a bending area;
- an integrated circuit (IC) disposed in the non-display area to drive the display panel;
- a first layer formed between the display area and the IC and covering the bending area;
- a first member covering the IC and the first layer and overlapping with the bending area;
- an output pad unit disposed on an outer side of the IC in the non-display area;
- and
- a ground electrode disposed on a flexible printed circuit board;
- wherein the flexible printed circuit board electrically connected to the output pad unit, the first member is connected to the ground electrode to reduce interference from static electricity or electromagnetic waves in the non-display area.
A display device comprising:
- a display panel having a display area and a non-display area, the non-display area being disposed at a peripheral portion of the display area and having a bending area;
- an integrated circuit (IC) disposed in the non-display area to drive the display panel;
- a first layer formed between the display area and the IC and covering the bending area;
- and
- a first member covering the IC and the first layer and overlapping with the bending area,
- wherein the first member comprises a first insulating layer, a conductive layer disposed on the first insulating layer, and a second insulating layer disposed on the conductive layer.
A display device comprising:
- a display panel having a display area and a non-display area, the non-display area being disposed at a peripheral portion of the display area and having a bending area;
- a integrated circuit (IC) disposed in the non-display area to drive the display panel;
- a first layer formed between the display area and the IC and covering the bending area;
- a first member covering the IC and a protective layer and overlapping with the bending area, and comprises a conductive member to reduce interference from static electricity or electromagnetic waves in the non-display area;
- and
- a ground electrode disposed on a flexible printed circuit board;
- wherein the conductive member is connected to the ground electrode.
A method for manufacturing a display device, the method comprising the steps of:
- preparing a display panel having a display area and a non-display area, the non-display area being disposed at a peripheral portion of the display area and having an integrated circuit (IC) therein;
- forming a protective layer between the IC and the display area;
- forming a first member to cover the drive IC and the protective layer;
- bending the display panel to form a bending area between the drive IC and the display area;
- connecting a flexible printed circuit board to the non-display area;
- forming a ground electrode on the flexible printed circuit board;
- and
- connecting the first member to the ground electrode.
