In an amorphous silicon thin film transistor-liquid crystal display device
and a method of manufacturing the same, gate patterns including a gate
line and a gate electrode are formed on an insulation substrate having a
display region and a driving circuit region on which a plurality of shift
registers are formed, a gate insulating film, active layer patterns and
data patterns including source and drain electrodes are formed
successively on the substrate, a passivation layer on the substrate has a
first contact hole exposing a drain electrode of the display region and
second and third contact holes respectively exposing a gate electrode and
source and drain electrodes of a first transistor of each of the shift
registers, an electrode patterns on the passivation layer include a first
electrode connected to the drain electrode of the display region through
the first contact hole and a second electrode connecting the gate
electrode to the source and drain electrodes of the first transistor
through the second and third contact holes, and the gate driving circuit
including the shift registers and the wirings are integrated on the
insulating substrate without an additional process, thereby simplifying
the manufacturing process.
