It is branched from the data main wiring 112a as much as possible. As a result, the data connection electrode 112b may be electrically connected to the source connection electrode 54 through the data contact hole 102. The data pad connecting electrode 112c may be connected to one end of the data main wiring 112a and may have a width wider than that of the data main wiring 112a.

In addition, the repair line 114d may be omitted, the P-side connection electrode 114c may be formed in an integrated form with the bias main wiring 114a, and the cover electrode 114b may be the bias main. The wires 114a may be spaced apart from and electrically separated from each other.

On the other hand, since the bias wiring 114 is disposed to pass over the PIN diode 80 having a relatively large step, when passing through a portion where the step of the PIN diode 80 is formed, the bias wire 114 has a larger width than other portions. Can have For example, a portion of the bias main line 114a and a portion of the repair line 114d may have a relatively larger width than other portions. As a result, the bias wire 114 can be prevented from being disconnected due to the step difference of the PIN diode 80.
