Abstract

A touchscreen panel according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a transparent substrate (); a first electrically conductive layer () supported on the transparent substrate, the first electrically conductive layer including a plurality of sensing electrodes (S) extending along a first direction; and a second electrically conductive layer () including a plurality of driving electrodes (D) extending along a second direction intersecting the first direction, the plurality of driving electrodes being electrically insulated from the plurality of sensing electrodes. The plurality of sensing electrodes and the plurality of driving electrodes define a sensor array region (A), the sensor array region including a plurality of sensor portions (S) arranged in a matrix array. The first electrically conductive layer further includes a plurality of lead lines (Dt) extending essentially in parallel to the first direction within the sensor array region. Each of the plurality of driving electrodes is connected to at least one of the plurality of lead lines, and terminals of the plurality of sensing electrodes and terminals of the plurality of lead lines are both provided in the neighborhood of the same edge of the transparent substrate that extends essentially in parallel to the second direction.
