First Claim
Patent Images
1. A display panel comprising:
- a display comprising pixel columns electrically connected to data lines;
a non-display area adjacent the display;
a test circuit configured to receive a lighting test signal passing through at least a portion of the non-display area and to transfer the lighting test signal to the data lines in response to a test control signal; and
a switch configured to receive a data signal from an external component and to transfer the data signal to the data lines in response to a switching signal.

14. A display panel comprising:
-
a display comprising pixel columns electrically connected to data lines; a non-display area adjacent the display; a first test circuit configured to receive a first lighting test signal passing through at least a portion of the non-display area and to transfer the first lighting test signal to the data lines in response to a first test control signal; a switch configured to receive a data signal from an external component and to transfer the data signal to the data lines in response to a switching signal; a second test circuit electrically connected to the switch in parallel and configured to supply a second lighting test signal to the data lines in response to a second test control signal; and a driving integrated circuit configured to generate the first test control signal, the second test control signal, and the switching signal. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17)

18. A method of testing a display panel, the display panel comprising a display comprising pixel columns electrically connected to data lines and a non-display area adjacent the display, the method comprising:
-
supplying a first lighting test signal passing through at least a portion of the non-display area to a first test circuit that transfers the first lighting test signal to the data lines; transferring a reference signal being supplied from a driving integrated circuit to the data lines using a switch; and transferring the first lighting test signal to the data lines using the first test circuit. - View Dependent Claims (19, 20)
