Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim 111 words
A liquid crystal display device comprising: a liquid crystal display panel having upper and lower substrates, conductive films provided on the underside of the upper substrate and on the lower substrate, a connecting portion formed on one of the substrates; terminal portions formed on the connecting portion and electrically connected to the conductive films on the substrate having the connecting portion; an IC chip having terminal portions on the underside thereof; conductive adhesives disposed between the ternimal portions on the connecting portion and the terminal portions of the IC chip to join both terminal portions with each other; and a nonconducting coating provided on the connecting portion covering the IC chip.
