Liquid crystal apparatus

A display apparatus, comprising:

• a display device for data display, a drive circuit unit for driving the display device, a unit substrate for supplying electric signals to the drive circuit unit, and a tape-form film carrier comprising a first outer lead connected to the display device, a second outer lead connected to the unit substrate, an inner lead connected to the device circuit unit, a plurality of conductors connecting the leads, and an insulating substrate covering the conductors,
• wherein:
• a part of the film carrier connecting the display device and the drive circuit unit is provided with a first and a second blank portion where the insulating substrate is locally removed to expose the conductors,
• the second outer lead connected to the unit substrate extends in a direction perpendicular to an extension direction of the first outer lead connected to the display device, and
• the first and second blank portions are disposed in two elongated rows in a direction perpendicular to the extension direction of the first outer lead connected to the display device.
