is interconnected to eight output pads 703 a 703 b 703 c 703 d 703 e 703 f 703 g and 703 h each of these output pads is responsible for driving a particular segment of the display system and each of the segment displays a particular image of the signage display the functional block 702 may also include an output pad 705 for a ground signal or other necessary function for an integrated circuit each of these output pads 703 a 703 b 703 c 703 d 703 e 703 f 703 g and 703 h functions like those carrier connection pads 305 and 306 in essence these pads establish electrical connections between the integrated circuit included in the functional component 702 and the functional components on the display in one example the output pad 703 g may be used to establish the electrical connection with the portion of the top electrode layer 710 that is responsible for controlling the u201c jones product u201d segment of the display system 700 similarly the output pad 703 e may be used to establish the electrical connection with the portion of the top electrode layer 710 that is responsible for controlling the u201c creations.
