Abstract

An electrode structure includes at least a contact button portion that has a portion of multilayer structure of two or more conductor layers stacked and enlarged in area. A part mounting structure includes a substrate, a contact button portion which is formed on the substrate and on which a part is mounted by connection via a bump, wherein at least the contact button portion has a portion of multilayer structure of two or more conductor layers stacked, a part of which is enlarged in area. A liquid crystal display unit is equipped with the part mounting structure.

Claims (16)

1. A liquid crystal display unit equipped with a part mounting structure comprising:

a substrate; and

a contact button portion which is formed on the substrate and on which the part is mounted by connection via a bump, wherein

at least the contact button portion having input and output terminal portions, each terminal portion having a portion of multilayer structure of two or more conductor layers stacked on each other,

the portion of multilayer structure corresponding to the input terminal portion having an area twice or more than twice of an area of the bump connected to the respective contact button portion in a plan view,

the two or more conductor layers comprise a first conductor layer of a metal film and a second conductor layer of an indium tin oxide (ITO) formed on the first conductor layer, and

the portion of multilayer structure falls within a projected area of the part in the plan view.

2. A liquid crystal display unit equipped with a part mounting structure comprising:

a substrate; and

a contact button portion which is formed on the substrate and on which the part is mounted by connection via a bump, wherein

at least the contact button portion having input and output terminal portions, each terminal portion having a portion of multilayer structure of two or more conductor layers stacked on each other,

the contact button portion has contact buttons arrayed at a prescribed pitch,

the portion of multilayer structure

corresponding to the input terminal portion having an area made larger than twice an area of a square having the pitch as a side and twice or more than twice of an area of the bump connected to the respective contact button portion in a plan view

the two or more conductor layers comprise a first conductor layer of a metal film and a second conductor layer of ITO formed on the first conductor layer, and

the portion of multilayer structure falls within a projected area of the part in the plan view.
