Abstract:
1. An active matrix display panel comprising: a first circuit provided outside an effective display region that is usable for providing view images, the first circuit including: at least one first line via each of which a predetermined signal is supplied to a corresponding data line; switching elements, respectively provided for data lines, which achieve electrical connection and disconnection between the data lines and said at least one first line; and a single second line, provided parallel to scanning lines, via which a common control signal for the electrical connection and disconnection is supplied to the switching elements, and said active matrix display panel further comprising: dummy pixels which are structurally equivalent to pixels provided in the effective display region, and which are provided so as to be outside the effective display region and so as to be closer to the second line, the second line being provided away from a scanning line of dummy pixels that are provided farthest from the effective display region, by intervals at which the scanning lines are provided in the effective display region, in a direction away from the effective display region, wherein the second line is provided so that pixel electrodes of the dummy pixels are provided between the second line and the scanning line of the dummy pixels that are provided farthest from the effective display region, wherein the second line is provided so that a parasitic capacitance of the second line with respect to the dummy pixels adjacent to the second line is equivalent to a parasitic capacitance of an adjacent scanning line with respect to the pixels provided in the effective display region.
