Abstract:
1. A method of producing an electro-optical device by electrically connecting a first terminal portion provided on an electro-optical panel to a second terminal portion of a substrate, the method comprising: disposing one of the electro-optical panel and the substrate on a heater stage; applying an anisotropic conductive adhesive containing conductive particles made of a material onto either the first terminal portion or the second terminal portion; heating the heater stage to a temperature lower than a melting point of the conductive particles; and applying heat and pressure to the other of the electro-optical panel and the substrate for a time period of from approximately 2 to approximately 3 seconds using a pressure bonding device that is disposed on the other of the electro-optical panel and the substrate, the pressure bonding device being heated to a second temperature that is higher than the melting point of the conductive particles, thereby electrically connecting the first terminal portion to the second terminal portion by melting the conductive particles by application of heat in thermocompression bonding of the second terminal portion to the first terminal portion with the anisotropic conductive adhesive therebetween, wherein electrically connecting the first terminal portion to the second terminal portion comprises: wherein the material of the conductive particles has a melting point of between approximately 260° C. and approximately 280° C.; and wherein the second temperature is about 500° C.
