A liquid crystal display has a pad structure. The pad structure includes at least one pad formed on a substrate, an insulating film formed on the pad, and at least one conductive layer connected to the pad through contact holes defined through the insulating film. The insulating film covers side surfaces of the pad and a portion of the substrate adjacent to the side surfaces of the pad.
A liquid crystal display device includes a thin film transistor array disposed on a first region of a panel. An anisotropic conductive film bonds at least one integrated circuit chip and at least one other device, such as a FPC board, a TCP and a COF, to a second region of the panel.
