Patent ID: 7480026

Claim:
An electro-optical device, comprising: a first substrate; a second substrate disposed in opposition to the first substrate, the second substrate including a protruding section that protrudes beyond the first substrate in plan view, the protruding section of the second substrate having an edge; a liquid crystal layer disposed between the first substrate and the second substrate; a plurality of pixel units disposed in an image display region of the second substrate, the pixel units being driven based on drive signals; a drive circuit disposed at a position between the plurality of pixel units and the edge of the second substrate in plan view; a plurality of terminals disposed at a position between the drive circuit and the edge of the second substrate in plan view, the plurality of terminals including a first plurality of terminals juxtaposed in a first direction along the edge of the second substrate and a second plurality of terminals juxtaposed in a second direction, the first direction being substantially perpendicular to the second direction, at least one of the second terminals being located at a position at least partially within a range in the second direction defined by a width of the first plurality of terminals in the second direction; a first wire connected to one of the first plurality of terminals and extending in the second direction from the one of the first plurality of terminals toward the drive circuit; a second wire connected to the at least one of the second terminals and extending in the first direction from the at least one of the second terminals, the second wire being located at a position that is farther from the image display region than the first wire; and a flexible substrate which is mounted onto at least one terminal among the plurality of terminals, the flexible substrate having a plurality of wires provided thereon for supplying the drive signal to the plurality of pixel units through at least the one terminal among the plurality of terminals.
