With the development of the electronic and communication industries, there is an increasing demand for flat panel Display devices such as Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs), Organic Light Emitting Diodes (OLEDs), Plasma Display Panels (PDPs), and Liquid Crystal Displays (LCDs). The development trend of flat panel display devices is light, thin, short, and small, and a packaging technology having characteristics of high density, small volume, high degree of freedom of mounting, etc. is required to meet the above requirements, and thus, a Chip On Glass (COG) packaging technology has been developed.
The COG is to fix a driving chip on a display panel, and to use the display panel as a carrier for packaging the driving chip, and to bond the driving chip with a circuit of the display panel. In the conventional COG structure, as shown in fig. 1, a part of bonding pads of a driver chip 1 and a part of bonding pads on a non-display area of a display panel 4 are electrically connected to each other to serve as a signal input terminal 2 of the driver chip 1, and another part of bonding pads of the driver chip 1 and another part of bonding pads on the non-display area of the display panel 4 are electrically connected to each other to serve as a signal output terminal 3 of the driver chip 1, wherein the signal input terminal 2 is used for inputting signals to the driver chip 1, and the signal output terminal 3 is used for outputting signals input to the driver chip 1 to the display panel 4 after being processed by the driver chip 1.
In the COG structure, as shown in fig. 2a and fig. 2b, the pad 11 on the driving chip 1 is electrically connected to the pad 41 on the display panel 4 by using an Anisotropic Conductive Film (ACF) through a pressure welding method, so that the driving chip 1 transmits a driving signal to each signal line in the display panel 4. Two groups of bonding pads electrically connected by means of crimping are referred to as a bonding pad structure, for example, both the signal input terminal and the signal output terminal are a bonding pad structure, where fig. 2a is a bonding pad structure before crimping, and fig. 2b is a bonding pad structure after crimping.
Based on some problems existing in the current COG process, for example, in the COG structure, the problems of poor flatness of the pad structure, abnormal ACF, alignment deviation of two electrically connected pads, and the like can cause uneven contact resistance of different welding areas of the pad structure, thereby affecting signal transmission, causing a hidden trouble of abnormal display in subsequent use of a display product, and the contact resistance of the pad structure can change along with accumulation of time, temperature, and humidity.
