Abstract
A LCD apparatus includes a liquid crystal panel, a circuit board having a mounting surface and circuit elements mounted on the mounting surface to constitute a drive circuit for driving the LCD apparatus, and a case for holding the liquid crystal panel and the circuit board. The circuit board is positioned approximately in a vertical direction during normal use of the LCD apparatus. The circuit elements include a first element having a first projecting length from the mounting surface and a second element having a second projecting length from the mounting surface. The first projecting length is greater than a projecting length of any other element of the circuit elements. The second projecting length is slightly smaller than the first projecting length. The first and the second elements are arranged on the mounting surface approximately in a line in the vertical direction.
