Assembly structure of a flat type device including a panel having electrode terminals disposed on a peripheral portion thereof and method for assembling the same

A panel assembly comprising:

• a flat panel having a plurality of electrode terminals disposed along a peripheral portion of one surface;
• an integrated circuit mounted on a flexible wiring board and electrically connected to said electrode terminals for driving the panel;
• an insulating layer having a first and second surface, with said electrode terminals located on said first surface;
• a circuit wiring extending along the peripheral portion for transferring an external signal to the panel, located on said second surface below said first surface so as to be insulated from said electrode terminals;
• junction terminals spaced from each other in conducting contact with said circuit wiring, said junction terminals penetrating said insulating layer and having portions located on said first surface;
• and
• said flexible wiring board including on one side input and output terminals leading to the integrated circuit;
• wherein the one side of the flexible wiring board is overlaid on the peripheral portion of the panel so that the junction terminals and electrode terminals of the panel are electrically connected to the input and output terminals of the flexible wiring board, respectively.
