ABSTRACT:
The invention provides an electrooptic device and an electronic apparatus, in which the electrical characteristics of many thin-film switching elements formed in a substrate to support an electrooptic material can be accurately inspected. The invention also provides a method for making the electrooptic device. In a TFT array substrate of a liquid crystal device, an inspection TFT is formed in one of dummy pixels disposed at the periphery of a pixel region. A pixel electrode connected to a drain region of the TFT functions as a first inspection pad. In an adjacent dummy pixel, the pixel electrode electrically connected to an extended portion of a data line functions as a second inspection pad. In another adjacent dummy pixel, the pixel electrode electrically connected to an extended portion of a scan line via a junction electrode functions as a third inspection pad.
