A typical display device generates driving signals using a driving integrated chip. In this case, the driving signals are stabilized by a capacitor mounted on a flexible printed circuit board, and then the stabilized driving signals are applied to a display region of a display panel through pads and lines formed on the flexible printed circuit board. However, the area of a pad part of the display device that contacts the flexible printed circuit board can be increased. The display device 400 in accordance with example embodiments can generate driving signals (e.g., direct current voltage) using the driving chip 420. Here, the driving signals can be stabilized by the capacitor mounted on at least one of the flexible printed circuit board 450, the driving integrated circuit chip 420, and the display panel 410, and then the stabilized driving signals can be provided to the display region I through the internal lines of the driving integrated circuit chip 420 and the output pads of the driving integrated circuit chip 420. Thus, the lines and the pads can be efficiently arranged in the peripheral region 11. In other words, the lines adjacent to one another and the pads adjacent to one another can be spaced apart from one another by a substantially constant length.
Therefore, a contact defect between the adjacent lines and a contact defect between the adjacent pads can be reduced. As a result, the display device 400 can ensure a relatively improved driving stability (i.e., the display device 400 can be stably driven.)
