Particularly, in FIG. 6, a light emitting display apparatus including a 1-1^th test pad portion 115 and one 2-1^th test pad portion 615 is illustrated as an example of the present disclosure. Also, for convenience of description, a light emitting display apparatus where the number of routing lines 710 and test routing lines 720 provided on a lateral surface is 18 is illustrated in FIG. 6 as an example of the present disclosure. However, the number of routing lines 710 and test routing lines 720 may be variously set based on a size of a light emitting display apparatus.

As described above, a 1-1^th test pad portion 115 may include two 1-1^th test pads 113 adjacent to each other, and a 2-1^th test pad portion 615 may include two 2-1^th test pads 613 which are adjacent to each other and are connected to each other through a test pad connection line 616.

The two 1-1^th test pads 113 may be respectively connected to the two 2-1^th test pads 613 facing each other through a test routing line 720.

That is, the light emitting display apparatus according to the present disclosure may include one 1-1^th test pad portion 115 and one 2-1^th test pad portion 615.

In this case, one of the two 1-1^th test pads 113 may be connected to a 1-1^th main test pad 111, and the other of the two 1-1^th test pads 113 may be connected to a 1-2^th main test pad 112.

For example, in the light emitting display apparatus illustrated in FIG. 6, one 1-1^th test pad 113 may be connected to the 1-1^th main test pad 111 provided at a right side of the light emitting display apparatus, and one other 1-1^th test pad 113 may be connected to the 1-2^th main test pad 112 provided at a left side of the light emitting display apparatus.

In this case, the 1-1^th main test pad 111 and one of the two 1-1^th test pads 113 may be connected to each other through a 1-1^th main connection line 116a, and the 1-2^th main test pad 112 and the other of the two 1-1^th test pads 113 may be connected to each other through a 1-2^th main connection line 116b.

For example, as illustrated in FIG. 6, the 1-1^th main test pad 111 and one 1-1^th test pads 113 may be connected to each other through the 1-1^th main connection line 116a, and the 1-2^th main test pad 112 and the other 1-1^th test pads 113 may be connected to each other through the 1-2^th main connection line 116b.

That is, the 1-2^th main connection line 116b may be connected to the 1-2^th main test pad 112, and as illustrated in FIG. 7, the 1-1^th main connection line 116a may be connected to the 1-1^th main test pad 111.

In this case, the 1-1^th main test pad 111 may be connected to the 1-1^th main connection line 116a, or as illustrated in FIG. 7, may be connected to the 1-1^th main connection line 116a through a 1-1^th main test pad electrode 114. The 1-1^th main test pad electrode 114 may be formed on the same layer as the signal line 190.

Moreover, the 1-1^th main connection line 116a may be insulated from the first pads 101, and the 1-2^th main connection line 116b may be insulated from the first pads 101.

For example, as illustrated in FIG. 8, the 1-1^th main connection line 116a may overlap the first pads 101 with an insulation layer 193 therebetween, and moreover, the 1-2^th main connection line 116b may overlap the first pads 101 with the insulation layer 193 therebetween.

To provide an additional description, in FIGS. 7 and 8, a first substrate 100 may include a first base substrate 191, a buffer 192, an insulation layer 193, a first passivation layer 194, a dam 195, a second passivation layer 196, and an encapsulation layer 197. For example, various electrodes may be disposed between the buffer 192, the insulation layer 193, and the first passivation layer 194. Therefore, the various transistors configuring the pixel driving circuit PDC described above with reference to FIG. 2 and the stage transistors described above with reference to FIG. 5 may be provided. A light emitting device ED may be provided on the first passivation layer 194 and may be protected by the second passivation layer 196, and finally, the encapsulation layer 197 may be provided on the second passivation layer 196. Also, the dam 195 for supporting the second passivation layer 196 may be provided at an end of a display area 120.

In this case, the 1-1^th main connection line 116a may be provided between the buffer 192 and the insulation layer 193, the signal lines 190 and the 1-1^th main test pad electrode 114 may be provided between the insulation layer 193 and the first passivation layer 194, and the first pads 101, the 1-1^th main test pad 111, the 1-2^th main test pad 112, and the 1-1^th test pads 113 may be provided on the first passivation layer 194.

Therefore, the 1-1^th main connection line 116a may overlap the first pads 101 with the insulation layer 193 therebetween.

However, the first substrate 100 may be formed in various structures in addition to a structure illustrated in FIGS. 7 and 8.

Moreover, in FIGS. 7 and 8, a second substrate 600 may include a second base substrate 691, a first layer 692, and a second layer 693.

For example, the link lines 640, the 2-1^th test link line 620, and the 2-2^th test link line 630 may be provided between the second base substrate 691 and the first layer 692.

The second pads 601, the 2-1^th main test pad 611, the 2-2^th main test pad 612, and the 2-1^th test pads 613 may be provided on one of the first layer 692 and the second layer 693.

In this case, the routing lines 710, the test routing lines 720, the first pads 101, the 1-1^th main test pad 111, the 1-2^th main test pad 112, the 1-1^th test pads 113, the second pads 601, the 2-1^th main test pad 611, the 2-2^th main test pad 612, and the 2-1^th test pads 613 may be protected by a coating layer 800 as illustrated in FIGS. 7 and 8.

In the light emitting display apparatus according to the present disclosure described above with reference to FIGS. 6 to 8, the 2-1^th measurement pad 621 may be electrically connected to the 2-2^th measurement pad 631 through the 2-1^th test link line 620, the 2-1^th main test pad 611, the test routing line 720, the 1-1^th main test pad 111, the first connection line 116a, the 1-1^th test pad 613, the test routing line 720, the 2-1^th test pad 613, the test pad connection line 616, the 2-1^th test pad 613, the test routing line 720, the 1-1^th test pad 613, the second connection line 116, the 1-2^th main test pad 112, the test routing line 720, the 2-2^th main test pad 612, and the 2-2^th test link line 630.

In this case, positions of the 1-1^th test pads 613 and the 2-1^th test pads 613 may be variously changed based on a position at which resistances of routing lines are to be measured.

For example, in manufactured light emitting display apparatuses, the 1-1^th test pads 613 and the 2-1^th test pads 613 may be disposed at positions at which there are many defects of routing lines. In this case, when a resistance value measured from each of the 2-1^th measurement pad 621 and the 2-2^th measurement pad 631 electrically connected to the test routing lines 720 is within a predetermined or selected resistance value range, it may be determined that all routing lines 710 provided on a lateral surface of the light emitting display apparatus are normal.

However, when a resistance value measured from each of the 2-1^th measurement pad 621 and the 2-2^th measurement pad 631 electrically connected to the test routing lines 720 is outside the predetermined or selected resistance value range, it may be determined that a defect occurs in other routing lines 710 provided on the lateral surface of the light emitting display apparatus. In this case, the occurrence or not of defects of the routing lines 710 may be determined through a more precise test.

In the light emitting display apparatus according to the present disclosure described above with reference to FIGS. 6 to 8, the 1-1^th test pads 613 and the 2-1^th test pads 113 may be disposed at only one of various positions of the lateral surface of the light emitting display apparatus.

In this case, even when a measured resistance value is normal, there may be a possibility that a defect occurs in the routing lines 710 disposed at other positions.

Therefore, in the present disclosure, as described below, the test routing lines 720 may be disposed at two or more positions of the lateral surface of the light emitting display apparatus.

FIGS. 9 to 11 are other example diagrams schematically illustrating a rear surface of a light emitting display apparatus according to the present disclosure.

First, in FIG. 9, a light emitting display apparatus is illustrated where a 1-2^th test pad portion 125 and a 2-2^th test pad portion 625 are further provided along with the 1-1^th test pad portion 115 and the 2-1^th test pad portion 615.

That is, a first pad portion 110 may further include a 1-2^th test pad portion 125 provided between a 1-1^th main test pad 111 and a 1-2^th main test pad 112, in addition to the 1-1^th test pad portion 115, and a second pad portion 610 may further include a 2-2^th test pad portion 625 provided between a 2-1^th main test pad 611 and a 2-2^th main test pad 612, in addition to the 2-1^th test pad portion 615. The 1-2^th test pad portion 125 may include two 1-2^th test pads 123 adjacent to each other. The 2-2^th test pad portion 625 may include two 2-2^th test pads 623 which are adjacent to each other and are connected to each other through a 2-2^th test pad connection line 626.

Each of the two 1-2^th test pads 123 may be connected a 2-2^th test pad 623 facing each other among the two 2-2^th test pads 623 through a test routing line 720.

In this case, one of two 1-1^th test pads 113 may be connected to the 1-1^th main test pad 111 through a 1-1^th main connection line 116a, one of two 1-2^th test pads 123 may be connected to the 1-2^th main test pad 112 through a 1-2^th main connection line 116b, and the other of the two 1-1^th test pads 113 may be connected to the other of the two 1-2^th test pads 123 through a 1-3^th main connection line 116c.

According to the present disclosure described above, test routing lines 720 may be provided at two portions of the light emitting display apparatus (for example, a left portion and a right portion of the light emitting display apparatus) as illustrated in FIG. 9.

In this case, when a resistance value measured from each of the test routing lines 720 disposed at the two portions is within a predetermined or selected range, it may be predicted that routing lines 710 near the test routing lines 720 disposed at the two portions are normal. Accordingly, the test reliability of the routing lines 710 may be enhanced.

Second, in order to more enhance the test reliability of the routing lines 710, at least one 1-3^th test pad portion 135 and at least one 2-3^th test pad portion 635 may be further provided on a lateral surface of the light emitting display apparatus, in addition to the 1-1^th test pad portion 115, the 2-1^th test pad portion 615, the 1-2^th test pad portion 125, and the 2-2^th test pad portion 625.

In this case, a method of connecting the 1-3^th test pad portion 135 and the 2-3^th test pad portion 635 to other elements may be similar to a method of connecting the 1-2^th test pad portion 125 and the 2-2^th test pad portion 625 to other elements, and thus, detailed descriptions thereof are omitted.

According to the present disclosure described above, the test routing lines 720 may be provided at three portions of the lateral surface of the light emitting display apparatus, and test pad portions corresponding to the 1-3^th test pad portion 135 and the 2-3^th test pad portion 635 may be further provided. Accordingly, the test routing lines 720 may be provided at three or more portions of the lateral surface of the light emitting display apparatus.

In this case, when a resistance value measured from each of the test routing lines 720 disposed at three or more portions is within a predetermined or selected range, it may be predicted that routing lines 710 near the test routing lines 720 disposed at the three or more portions are normal. Accordingly, the test reliability of the routing lines 710 may be enhanced.

To this end, the light emitting display apparatus according to the present disclosure may further include a 3-1^th main test pad 111a, a 3-2^th main test pad 112a, a 3-1^th test pad portion 115a, a 4-1^th main test pad 611a, a 4-2^th main test pad 612a, and a 4-1^th test pad portion 615a respectively corresponding to the 1-1^th main test pad 111, the 1-2^th main test pad 112, the 1-1^th test pad portion 115, the 2-1^th main test pad 611, the 2-2^th main test pad 612, and the 2-1^th test pad portion 615.

In this case, the 2-1^th main test pad 611 may be provided at one end of the second pad portion 610, the 2-2^th main test pad 612 may be provided at a center portion of the second pad portion 610, the 4-1^th main test pad 611a may be provided adjacent to the 2-2^th main test pad 612 at a center portion of the second pad portion 610, and the 4-2^th main test pad 612a may be provided at the other end of the second pad portion 610.

For example, as illustrated in FIG. 11, the 2-1^th main test pad 611 may be provided at a right end of the second pad portion 610, the 2-2^th main test pad 612 may be provided at the center portion of the second pad portion 610, the 4-1^th main test pad 611a may be provided adjacent to the 2-2^th main test pad 612 at the center portion of the second pad portion 610, and the 4-2^th main test pad 612a may be provided at a left end of the second pad portion 610.

In this case, as illustrated in FIG. 11, the test routing lines 720 may be provided at two portions of the lateral surface of the light emitting display apparatus.

Therefore, as described above with reference to FIG. 9, when a resistance value measured from each of the test routing lines 720 disposed at two portions is within a predetermined or selected range, it may be predicted that routing lines 710 near the test routing lines 720 disposed at the two portions are normal. Accordingly, the test reliability of the routing lines 710 may be enhanced.

In this case, in the light emitting display apparatus illustrated in FIG. 11, test routing lines 720 may be provided at two or more portions between the 2-1^th main test pad 611 and the 2-2^th main test pad 612, and test routing lines 720 may be provided at two or more portions between the 4-1^th main test pad 611a and the 4-2^th main test pad 612a. Accordingly, the test reliability of the routing lines 710 may be enhanced.

Link lines 640 connected to a first data driver IC 310 configuring a data driver 300 may be provided between a 2-1^th test link line 620 connected to the 2-1^th main test pad 611 and a 2-2^th test link line 630 connected to the 2-2^th main test pad 612, and link lines 640 connected to a second data driver IC 320 configuring the data driver 300 may be provided between a 4-1^th test link line 620a connected to the 4-1^th main test pad 611a and a 4-2^th test link line 630a connected to the 4-2^th main test pad 612a.

To provide an additional description, the light emitting display apparatus according to the present disclosure may include at least two measurement pad portions connected to the second pad portion 610 and the resistance measurement device.

Each of the at least two measurement pad portions may be connected to the second pad portion.

In this case, each of the at least two measurement pad portions may include two measurement pads connected to the resistance measurement device.

For example, in FIG. 11, a light emitting display apparatus including two measurement pad portions is illustrated. In this case, one of the two measurement pad portions may include the 2-1^th measurement pad 621 and the 2-2^th measurement pad 631 connected to the resistance measurement device, and the other of the two measurement pad portions may include the 4-1^th measurement pad 621a and the 4-2^th measurement pad 631a.

According to the present disclosure, because test pads for measuring resistances of routing lines are provided between pads provided on a lateral surface of a light emitting display panel, the occurrence or not of defects of the routing lines provided on the lateral surface may be more accurately determined than the related art.

Therefore, a light emitting display apparatus where a defect occurs in the routing lines may be accurately determined, and thus, a probability that a defective light emitting display apparatus is released may be reduced.

Moreover, a repair process may be performed on a light emitting display apparatus where a defect occurs in the routing lines, and thus, a defect rate of light emitting display apparatuses may decrease.
