The LCD device includes a liquid crystal panel, a backlight unit, a circuit board
disposed at rear side of the backlight unit, and a number of flexible substrates
each mounting thereon a driver chip and connecting the terminals of the liquid
crystal panel and the circuit board. The flexible substrate has a cut-out at each
side edge thereof. A protrusion formed on the backlight unit or inner housing passes
the cut-out to protrude toward the housing of the LCD device.
