Abstract
A display panel includes a substrate, pixel electrodes, switching components, an electrode, a line, a terminal, an insulating film, and a conductive film. The switching components are disposed in a layer lower than the pixel electrodes. The electrode is disposed in a layer different from a layer in which the pixel electrodes are disposed. The line includes sections disposed in a layer lower than the switching components in a display area. The terminal is disposed in a layer upper than the line in a non-display area. The insulating film includes a section disposed between the line and the switching components in the display area and a section disposed between the terminal and the substrate in the non-display area. The conductive film is disposed on the insulating film in a layer between the line and the terminal to connect the line to the terminal.
