Abstract
An LCD panel includes a plurality of signal lines, a plurality of display units, a driving circuit and a test unit. Each display unit is coupled to a corresponding signal line of the plurality of signal lines. The driving circuit is coupled to corresponding signals lines via a plurality of output ends. The test unit includes a shorting bar, a test pad, and a plurality of switches. Each switch is coupled between a corresponding signal line of the plurality of signal lines and the shorting bar.
Claims8
A liquid crystal display (LCD) panel capable of detecting cell defects, line defects and layout defects, comprising:
- a plurality of signal lines;
- a plurality of display units each coupled to a corresponding signal line among the plurality of signal lines;
- a driving circuit having a plurality of output ends each coupled to a corresponding signal line among the plurality of signal lines in order to provide driving signals for driving the display units;
- and
- a test unit, comprising:
- a shorting bar;
- a first test pad disposed at a first end of the shorting bar for receiving a test signal:
- and
- a plurality of switching devices each coupled between a corresponding output end among the plurality of output ends and the shorting bar for controlling signal transmission paths between the shorting bar and the plurality of signal lines based on the test signal.
