Patent ID: 8493538

Claim:
A flat display panel comprising: a substrate having at least one common wire; an insulating passivation layer formed over the substrate having a first opening, a second opening, and a third opening which expose portions of the at least one common wire, and wherein said third opening is between said first opening and said second opening; at least two driver integrated circuits spaced apart from each other and disposed in alignment and electrically connected with at least one common wire through said first opening and said second opening in the insulating passivation layer; and a flexible printed circuit including an extending portion that is located in an area between the at least two integrated driver circuits and aligned with a portion of at least one common wire located between the two integrated circuits, wherein the extending portion of the flexible printed circuit is electrically connected with the portion of at least one common wire located between the two driver integrated circuits via said third opening; wherein the extending portion of the flexible printed circuit overlaps at least one common wire permitting power and ground voltages to be delivered to the driver integrated circuits through the common wire.
