Abstract

According to one embodiment, a display device includes a display panel including a first insulating substrate, a first electrode disposed above the first insulating substrate, an IC chip electrically connected to the first electrode, a first terminal electrically connected to the IC chip, and a wiring substrate including a base including a first surface and a second surface on a side opposite to the first surface, a second terminal which is disposed on the first surface and is electrically connected to the first terminal, and an electromagnetic shielding layer which is disposed on the second surface and covers at least a part of the IC chip.
