The sealing resin layer 14 is disposed on the driving layer 12 and should have a relatively flat upper surface.
As a special design of the present invention, the flexible wiring board 14 of the present invention is disposed on the lower surface of the substrate 10, i.e., the electrical connection position of the flexible wiring board 14 and the driving layer 12 is located on the lower surface of the substrate 10.
