The flexible printed circuit board FPCB may electrically connect the display panel 200 to the printed circuit board PCB. The flexible printed circuit board FPCB may be flexible.
In an embodiment of the invention, the flexible printed circuit board FPCB may be coupled to the first lower flat portion 251, such as being adhered thereto.
The printed circuit board PCB may provide control and/or driving signals to the display panel 200 to display an image through the flexible printed circuit board FPCB and/or may receive control and/or driving signals from the display panel 200 through the flexible printed circuit board FPCB. In an embodiment, such signals may be provided to the pixel of the display panel 200 without being limited thereto.
In a direction normal to the first lower flat support portion 319, the printed circuit board PCB may be thicker than the first lower flat portion 251 of the display panel 200 and may be placed in the receiving groove GV provided in the first lower flat support portion 319 of the first support member 310. A thickness of the printed circuit board PCB may be substantially equal to a sum of a thickness of the first lower flat portion 251 and a depth of the receiving groove GV which is also taken in the direction normal to the first lower flat support portion 319.
