First PUCCH format supports a number of information bits per subframe larger than a number of information bits per subframe supported by the second PUCCH format. First PUCCH format is used for transmitting HARQ control information with a scheduling request.

Abstract: Provided are a display device and a method of manufacturing same, whereby deterioration in image display quality due to display unevenness or shadowing is avoided. An open region is disposed in a source driver mounting region in a position thereof that corresponds to a remaining output region 15 of a source driver 4. Next, a common signal line 30, which connects an FPC connecting region 19 to a common transfer electrode 20a, is formed passing through the open region. It is thus possible to shorten the length of the common signal line 30, and to position the common transfer electrode 20a in a desired location. Consequently, variation in the common signal lag for each position on a common electrode is mitigated, making it possible to minimize image display unevenness. The width of the open region is also increased, allowing the width of the common signal line 30 to also be increased. Consequently, the load on the common signal line 30 can be reduced.
