Abstract
A flat type display device is assembled compactly with high reliability. The flat type display device has a liquid crystal panel having electrode terminals on a peripheral portion of one face of the liquid crystal panel, a flexible wiring board having a drive IC mounted thereon for driving the liquid crystal panel, and a common wiring board having electrode terminals on one face thereof. The flexible wiring board is electrically connected to the electrode terminals of the liquid crystal panel. The common wiring board is electrically connected to the flexible wiring board so as to transmit an input signal, which has been received by the electrode terminals from external, to the drive IC. The liquid crystal panel and the common wiring board are mounted on each other so as to overlap each other in a state that their faces on which their respective electrode terminals are provided are opposed to each other and that the electrode terminals of the common wiring board are located outside of a peripheral portion of the liquid crystal panel. The flexible wiring board is provided in a clearance between the liquid crystal panel and the common wiring board.
