The insulating pattern is spaced apart from the channel pattern on the base substrate and includes a contact hole exposing the output electrode. The pixel electrode is formed on the insulating pattern to make contact with the output electrode through the contact hole. Thus, a damage of the oxide semiconductor layer may be minimized and a manufacturing process may be simplified.
