Abstract

The present invention provides a display device and a manufacturing method thereof. The display device includes a display panel, a driving chip and a flexible circuit board. The driving chip is electrically connected to the flexible circuit board and the display panel. The display panel includes a display area and a connecting area disposed on one side of the display area. The driving chip and the flexible circuit board are disposed in the connecting area, and the driving chip and the flexible circuit board at least partially overlap. By setting the driving chip and the flexible circuit boards are at least partially overlapped, which can reduce width of frame of the display device, increase screen ratio of the display device, and realize narrow frame display.
