Abstract

A circuit board includes: a power supply wiring board that includes a power supply circuit that outputs the power supply voltage, and a first power supply line and a second power supply line which are connected with the power supply circuit; a first wiring board that includes a first line; a second wiring board that includes a second line; a first cable that includes a first conductor that connects the first power supply line and the first line; a second cable that includes a second conductor that connects the second power supply line and the second line; and a short-circuit conductor that short-circuits the first line and the second line. An electrical length of a route from the power supply circuit to the first wiring board is shorter than an electrical length of a route from the power supply circuit to the second wiring board.

Claims (37)

1. A circuit board that supplies a power supply voltage to a display panel which includes a plurality of pixel circuits each including a light emitting element whose luminance changes according to a current supplied, the circuit board comprising:

a power supply wiring board that includes a power supply circuit that outputs the power supply voltage, and a first power supply line and a second power supply line which are connected with the power supply circuit;

a first wiring board that includes a first line;

a second wiring board that includes a second line;

a first cable that connects the power supply wiring board and the first wiring board, the first cable including a first conductor that connects the first power supply line and the first line;

a second cable that connects the power supply wiring board and the second wiring board, the second cable including a second conductor that connects the second power supply line and the second line; and

a short-circuit conductor that short-circuits the first line and the second line, wherein

an electrical length of a route from the power supply circuit to the first wiring board is shorter than an electrical length of a route from the power supply circuit to the second wiring board, the route from the power supply circuit to the first wiring board including the first power supply line and the first conductor, and the route from the power supply circuit to the second wiring board including the second power supply line and the second conductor, and

the first line of the first wiring board and the second line of the second wiring board are connected to the power supply circuit in common with each configured to receive the power supply voltage, with the first power supply line being directly connected to the second power supply line at an electrical node, and with the electrical node being directly connected to the power supply circuit.

2. The circuit board according to claim 1 , wherein

the power supply circuit is disposed off a center of the power supply wiring board in a lengthwise direction of the power supply wiring board.

3. The circuit board according to claim 1 , wherein

the power supply wiring board includes a control circuit which supplies, to the display panel, a gradation signal corresponding to a video signal that is input, and

in the lengthwise direction of the power supply wiring board, a distance between the power supply circuit and the center is longer than a distance between the control circuit and the center.

4. The circuit board according to claim 1 , wherein

the short-circuit conductor is disposed outside the display panel.

5. The circuit board according to claim 1 , wherein

the first line and the second line are connected with a first connection point of the display panel and a second connection point of the display panel, respectively, and

a resistance value of the short-circuit conductor is less than a resistance value of resistance present in the display panel between the first connection point and the second connection point.

6. A display device, comprising:

the circuit board according to claim 1 ; and

the display panel.

7. The circuit board according to claim 1 , wherein

the first power supply line and the second power supply line are connected for connecting the first line of the first wiring board and the second line of the second wiring board to the power supply circuit in common.

8. The circuit board according to claim 7 , wherein

the first line of the first wiring board is directly connected to the power supply circuit via the first conductor and the first power supply line, and

the second line of the second wiring board is directly connected to the power supply circuit via the second conductor and the second power supply line.

9. The circuit board according to claim 1 , wherein

an electrical length of a route from the electrical node to the first wiring board is shorter than an electrical length of a route from the electrical node to the second wiring board.

10. The circuit board according to claim 9 , wherein

an electrical length of the first power supply line is shorter than an electrical length of the second power supply line.

11. The circuit board according to claim 1 , wherein

in a plan view, the electrical node is offset from the short-circuit conductor, resulting in an electrical length of a route from the electrical node to the first wiring board being shorter than an electrical length of a route from the electrical node to the second wiring board.

12. The circuit board according to claim 11 , wherein

an electrical length of the first power supply line is shorter than an electrical length of the second power supply line.

13. The circuit board according to claim 12 , wherein

the power supply voltage is output from the power supply circuit directly to the electrical node.
