DISPLAY PANEL INCLUDING STATIC ELECTRICITY PREVENTING PATTERN AND DISPLAY DEVICE HAVING THE SAME

The present invention relates to a display panel including a static electricity preventing pattern and a display device having the same. An aspect of the present invention provides a display device or a display panel in which a dummy pattern having a pattern identical to or similar to a line of a signal area is positioned between the signal area and a non-signal area, in a pad including the signal area and the non-signal area. According to the present invention, as the virtual signal pattern is disposed outside the area of the gate pad or pad data, the defects of a thin film transistor by static electricity can be eliminated, which can improve the performance of the display device. 本发明涉及种包括防静电图案的显示面板以及具有这种显示面板的显示装置。本发明的个方面提供种显示装置或显示面板，其中在包括信号区域和非信号区域的焊盘中，具有与信号区域的线相同或相似图案的虚拟图案位于信号区域和非信号区域之间。根据本发明，由于虚拟图案设置在栅极焊盘或数据焊盘的信号区域的外侧，因此，消除了由于静电而导致的薄膜晶体管缺陷，从而能够改善显示装置的性能。
