Abstract
The present invention provides a flexible printed circuit that is less likely to suffer from erosion (corrosion) of electrode terminals even in severe environments and a display device using the flexible printed circuit. According to the present invention, a flexible printed circuit includes a flexible FPC film, FPC interconnections formed of a given pattern on the FPC film, a solder resist covering the FPC interconnections, and FPC terminals provided at ends of the FPC interconnections to make external connection. According to the invention, the FPC terminals include at least one terminal that has an end located inside of an outline of the FPC film.
