Abstract

PURPOSE:To omit a printed wiring board and to decrease the number of components by forming terminals, which are tape carrier terminals of a row and a column driving circuit and connected mutually, separately at two places and connecting them to corresponding terminals of an adjacent tape carrier in overlapping relation. CONSTITUTION:The circuits 12A, 12B, and 15 which drive the segment electrodes X and common electrodes Y of a liquid crystal panel 11 are composed of plural tape carriers (TAB) 13 and 16 by mounting LSI chips on respective plastic films, and the adjacent TABs 13 and 16 are arrayed having their side piece parts in overlapping relation. Respective output terminals of one LSI are provided on the narrow width part 19a of a plastic film 19 in an inverted T shape and input terminals are provided on the wide width part 19b separately at two places; and they are connected to same-function terminals of the adjacent TAB through a slit 20 in overlapping relation to omit the printed wiring board and decrease the number of components.

  1. 1
    [Claim(s)] 【特許請求の範囲】 A plurality of picture matter is arranged in the shape of a matrix to a display panel, and a line of picture matter is specified one by one in a line drive circuit which consists of a plurality of tape carriers who have an integrated circuit chip matched with two or more lines as which it was connected to this display panel, and picture matter was determined, respectively, A signal corresponding to display data is given to each sequence of picture matter in a sequence drive circuit which consists of a plurality of tape carriers who have an integrated circuit chip matched with two or more rows as which it was connected to said display panel, and picture matter was determined, respectively, In a display which drives picture matter of a specified line one by one and on which made it make a display panel display a picture, Among terminals in both a line drive circuit and a sequence drive circuit, or one tape carrier of each, A terminal which it should connect for each other between [ adjoining ] tape carriers is divided into two places for every terminal in each tape carrier, and it forms, and connects a divided terminal to a terminal in which the next tape carrier corresponds in piles, A display connecting between each tape carrier's terminals. 複数の絵素を表示パネルにマトリクス状に配列し、この表示パネルに接続され絵素の定められた複数行分に対応付けられる半導体集積回路チップをそれぞれ有する複数のテープキャリヤからなる行駆動回路で絵素の行を順次指定し、前記表示パネルに接続され絵素の定められた複数列分に対応付けられる半導体集積回路チップをそれぞれ有する複数のテープキャリヤからなる列駆動回路で絵素の各列に表示データに対応する信号を与えることによって、指定した行の絵素を順次駆動し表示パネルに画像を表示させるようにした表示装置において、 行駆動回路および列駆動回路の両方または一方の各テープキャリヤにおける端子のうち、隣接するテープキャリヤ相互間で接続させ合うべき端子を各テープキャリヤにおいて各端子ごとに2箇所に分けて形成し、分けられた端子を隣のテープキャリヤの対応する端子に重ねて接続することによって、各テープキャリヤの端子間を接続するようにしたことを特徴とする表示装置。
