One or more first wirings form a reference connection element, and one or more first wirings form a branch connection element adjacent to the reference connection element and has a path branching from that of the reference connection element. The first and/or second electrode layer includes a correction electrode which functions as a correction pattern structure that reduces a time constant difference between the reference connection element and the branch connection element. The correction electrode is positioned in the first and/or second electrode layer at a location which faces the reference connection element with a transparent dielectric layer interposed therebetween.

A combination of second electrode wires and first dummy wires forms a second section of the lattice pattern, and the second electrode wires form line segments different from those formed by the first dummy wires.

Abstract: A board wiring fault detection device has an analog-to-digital converter for receiving an optionally set test signal output from a peripheral device, a first memory for storing the test signal, a second memory for storing a predicted data item to be compared to the test signal stored in the first memory, the predicted data item being indicative of a no fault state of a board wiring, and a comparator for comparing test signal to the predicted data item in the first and second memories. The comparator outputs a comparison result to the outside. The peripheral device outputs the test signal upon every release of a reset signal and performs processing.
