A display panel has a plurality of drivers ICs electrically connected to the pixel area. The electrical conductors that are used to electrically connect the driver ICs to the pixel area are arranged in one or more fan-out patterns. The fan-out pattern of at least one of the ICs is arranged such that the slope of all fan-out segments is of the same sign. If the slope of the fan-out segments of that IC is negative, then, for the adjacent IC to the right, the conductor pattern is arranged such that the slope of the leftmost of the fan-out segment of that adjacent IC should also be negative. When three ICs are connected to a common pixel area, the conductor pattern for the middle IC is arranged such that the slope of the leftmost fan-out segment is positive and the slope of the rightmost segment is negative.
A method for use in an electronic module comprising a first electronic device, a second electronic device and a third electronic device, wherein the first electronic device is electrically connected to the third electronic device via a first conductor pattern, the first conductor pattern comprising a first fan-out section, and the second electronic device is electrically connected to the third electronic device via a second conductor pattern, the second conductor pattern comprising a second fan-out section, wherein the first conductor pattern has a first side and an opposing second side and the second conductor pattern has first side and an opposing second side adjacent to the first side of the first conductor pattern, and wherein the first fan-out section comprises a first outermost fan-out segment on the first side and a second outermost fan-out segment on the second side, the first outermost fan-out segment has a slope with a first slope sign and the second outermost fan-out segment has a slope with a different second slope sign, said method comprising:
