Patent ID: 8854562

Claim:
A liquid crystal panel including a plurality of pixels arranged in a matrix pattern having rows and columns, comprising: a storage capacitor provided in each pixel; a plurality of storage capacitor lines routed in the row direction and connected to the storage capacitors arranged in the row direction; a plurality of branch lines routed in the column direction across a pixel region where the plurality of pixels are arranged; and a control signal supply section connected to the branch lines for sending control signals to the storage capacitors from the branch lines through the storage capacitor lines, wherein the liquid crystal panel includes a plurality of stem lines routed in at least one edge portion in the row direction, with the storage capacitor lines connected to the stem lines; wherein the stem lines are connected to the control signal supply section, and control signals are sent to the storage capacitors from the stem lines through the storage capacitor lines; wherein the liquid crystal panel includes a plurality of horizontal stem lines routed in an edge portion in the column direction; and wherein the branch lines are connected to the horizontal stem lines.
