Abstract

An electro-optical device includes a first flexible board, a second flexible board and an integrated circuit mounted on the first flexible board, the flexible board is connected between an electro-optical panel and the second flexible board and includes a single-layered wiring layer, the second flexible board is connected to an external apparatus and includes a multilayered wiring layer, the single-layered wiring layer includes a first video signal wiring and a first ground wiring, a first wiring layer of the multilayered wiring layer includes a second video signal wiring connected to the first video signal wiring, a second wiring layer of the multilayered wiring layer includes a second ground wiring which is connected to the first ground wiring and is formed at a position opposite to the second video signal wiring.

Claims (22)

1. An electro-optical device comprising:

an electro-optical panel;

a first flexible printed circuit board that includes one end connected to the electro-optical panel, and a single-layered wiring layer;

a second flexible printed circuit board that includes one end connected to the other end of the first flexible printed circuit board, the other end connected to an external apparatus from which a video signal is supplied, and a multilayered wiring layer; and

an integrated circuit that is disposed on the first flexible printed circuit board, and that generates an image signal for displaying an image on the electro-optical panel based on the video signal supplied from the external apparatus and outputs the image signal to the electrooptical panel,

wherein the single-layered wiring layer of the first flexible printed circuit board includes

a first video signal wiring through which the video signal is supplied to the integrated circuit; and

a first ground wiring that is connected to ground potential,

wherein the multilayered wiring layer of the second flexible printed circuit board includes

a first wiring layer and a second wiring layer,

wherein the first wiring layer includes a second video signal wiring connected to the first video signal wiring, and

wherein the second wiring layer includes a second ground wiring that is connected to the first ground wiring and is formed at a position opposite to the second video signal wiring, the second ground wiring and the second video signal wiring overlapping with each other in a direction perpendicular to the second wiring layer.

2. The electro-optical device according to claim 1 ,

wherein the first wiring layer further includes a third ground wiring connected to the first ground wiring, and

wherein the third ground wiring is connected to the second ground wiring via a through-hole.

3. The electro-optical device according to claim 2 ,

wherein the through-hole is provided in the vicinity of a portion in which the first flexible printed circuit board and the second flexible printed circuit board are connected to each other, and

wherein the second video signal wiring and the second ground wiring form a microstrip line.

4. The electro-optical device according to claim 1 ,

wherein the video signal is supplied from the external apparatus, as a differential signal.

5. An electronic apparatus comprising:

the electro-optical device according to claim 1 .
