Claim Text:
1. An active matrix substrate, comprising: a plurality of data lines and a plurality of scan lines arranged in a matrix; and at least three short bars individually and separately connected to at least either of the plurality of data lines or the plurality of scan lines, wherein each of said at least three short bars is connected to a prescribed number of corresponding data lines or scan lines, and wherein, among said at least three short bars, there exist three adjacent short bars in which a middle short bar is provided in a different layer from short bars on both sides thereof, wherein, among the at least three short bars, the three adjacent short bars are configured such that either the middle short bar or the short bars on both sides thereof is made of a first conductive layer provided on a base member, wherein another of the middle short bar and the short bars on both sides thereof is made of a second conductive layer provided on a first insulating layer covering the first conductive layer, wherein at least one of said at least three short bars is connected to a connecting line that is integrally formed with, and made of a same material as, said at least one of the at least three short bars, said connecting line being connected to an end of a corresponding data line or scan line, wherein each of the data lines or scan lines to which the at least three short bars are connected has an electrode terminal, to which a driver that drives the corresponding data line or scan line is connected, adjacent to the end of the corresponding date line or scan line, wherein a cut region for separating the data lines or the scan lines from the at least three short bars is provided in a region between the electrode terminals and the at least three short bars within a driver mounting region in which the driver is to be mounted, and wherein driver input terminals are provided at an outer side of the electrode terminals in a plan view, and said cut region and said at least three short bars are disposed in a region between the electrode terminals and said driver input terminals.
