Description of the invention (1 Background of the invention The present invention relates to a method for detecting an indicator and a technique for inspecting parasitics and a technique for detecting a ratio of a displayed total capacitance. A device for inspecting a display, The method for checking the valley of the display power, in particular, the storage capacity of the pixel attached to the present invention is relatively well known. In a display device such as a liquid crystal display, which is not interesting, the pixel attached is The capacitance ratio of the electric valley device and the parasitic capacitor is the factor that determines the display characteristics: the factor. The accurately measured capacitance ratio brings very effective information, which can be used to optimize the panel design or cause and effect analysis of display defects. However, this type of capacitor Or parasitic capacitors usually have. ”Electric valleys below pF. Therefore, when a probe or the like comes into contact with it for measurement, such contact can induce changes in capacity, which hinders accurate measurement. For this reason, today , The total capacitance of capacitors and parasitic capacitors have been detected by changing various parameters, and theoretical and empirical methods have been used based on such detection results. To evaluate the parasitic capacitance and ratio. However, since the conventional inspection method only detects the sum of the capacitances of the capacitor and the parasitic capacitor, it is impossible to actually determine which of the capacitor and the parasitic capacitor would actually cause display defects. In addition, in recent years In the past, an image display method that actively uses parasitic capacitors has been adopted. "In this context, accurate evaluation of parasitic capacitance values has become a necessary condition for adopting such display methods. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has considered such technical problems, and the present invention The main purpose is to provide a technology that accurately evaluates the ratio of individual pixels to the accompanying parasitic capacitance. -5- This paper size applies the Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 specification (210 X 297 mm) 1221910 A7 ________ Β7_ V.

The relationship between the pixel voltage and its corresponding light intensity when the switch is switched to the ON state will be investigated in advance. Therefore, when the switch is switched from the ON state to the OFF state, The change amount of the pixel voltage can be obtained according to the change amount of the light intensity under the event. In addition, 'according to the law of conservation of charge, when the switch transitions to the OFF state', the change in the pixel voltage can be attributed to the pixel electrode The accompanying parasitic capacitance 'so the ratio of the parasitic capacitance to the total capacitance can be calculated from the change amount of the pixel voltage.
