Abstract:
An active matrix display device comprising:a plurality of pixel electrodes arranged in a matrix;a plurality of switching elements connected to the respective pixel electrodes;a plurality of scanning lines for supplying a scan voltage to the switching elements;a plurality of signal lines for supplying a signal voltage to the switching elements, provided so as to cross the scanning lines;an insulating film between the matrix of pixel electrodes and the scanning lines and signal lines, anda bypass spare line for avoiding at least one of a disconnected portion and a leak portion, formed so as to overlap at least one of the scanning line and the signal line with the insulating film interposed between the bypass spare line and the at least one of the scanning line and the signal line, and the bypass spare line and pixel electrodes being on a same side of the insulating film;wherein the bypass spare line and at least one of the scanning line and the signal line are electrically connected to each other.
