Abstract:
1. A liquid crystal display (LCD) device, comprising: a gate line and a data line crossing each other; a gate driving unit and a data driving unit outputting signals to the gate line and the data line; a gate pad portion electrically connected to the gate line and having a gate pad, a gate pad terminal and a first contact hole, wherein the gate pad electrically connected to the gate line, and the gate pad terminal contacting an entire surface of an exposed portion of the gate pad through the first contact hole; a data pad portion electrically connected to the data line and having a data pad, a data pad terminal and a second contact hole, wherein the data pad electrically connected to the data line, and the data pad terminal contacting an entire surface of an exposed portion of the data pad through the second contact hole; a first output terminal of the gate driving unit completely covering the first contact hole; a second output terminal of the data driving unit completely covering the second contact hole; a first conductive film electrically connecting the first output terminal and the gate pad portion; and a second conductive film electrically connecting the second output terminal and the data pad portion, wherein the gate pad is larger than the first output terminal and the data pad is larger than the second output terminal, and wherein the first conductive film and the second conductive film have the substantially same width as the first output terminal and the second output terminal, respectively.
