Abstract

A power transmission circuit, a light source module including the power transmission circuit, and a panel display device are provided. The power transmission circuit includes a substrate, a power transmission layer, a metal shielding layer, a first protective layer, and a second protective layer. The substrate has a first surface and a second surface with the power transmission layer and the metal shielding layer respectively formed thereon. The metal shielding layer covers a projection region of a transmission section of the power transmission layer. The first and second protective layers are respectively disposed on the power transmission layer and the metal shielding layer and opposite to the substrate to protect the power transmission layer and the metal shielding layer.
