In this embodiment, as the via hole is manufactured by using the photolithography process, the aperture of the manufactured via hole is small, and the aperture of the via hole is 4-6um, which is beneficial to the arrangement of the routing lines and the narrowing of the PAD area at the lower edge of the flexible display panel.
