However, in the above-mentioned prior art, since the input terminals 2a to 2h of the COF 4 are arranged in parallel to the signal lines B to G, the terminals a to h and the signal line 5B are arranged.
In the case of connecting G to G, a two-layer board having vertical conduction by the through hole 6 is required in order to avoid orthogonality with other signal lines. Therefore, a liquid crystal display device using such a two-layer substrate has a problem that it is expensive. Therefore, the present invention solves such a problem, and an object of the present invention is to provide a flexible circuit board that does not require a two-layer board and an inexpensive and highly reliable liquid crystal display device.
