Abstract
An array substrate includes a plurality of data lines, a plurality of gamma lines, a repair pad, a repair line, an inspection pad and an inspection line. The data lines transmit a data voltage to an active region. The gamma lines apply a gamma reference voltage to generate the data voltage. The repair pad repairs the data line. The repair line extends from the repair pad. The repair line is disposed adjacent to the gamma line. The inspection pad applies an inspection signal. The inspection line extends from the inspection pad. The inspection line is connected to the data lines. The gamma lines are connected to the inspection line.
