To improve the reliability of contact with an anisotropic conductive film
in a semiconductor device such as a liquid crystal display panel, a
terminal portion (182) of a connecting wiring (183) on an active matrix
substrate is electrically connected to an FPC (191) by an anisotropic
conductive film (195). The connecting wiring (183) is manufactured in the
same process with a source/drain wiring of a TFT on the active matrix
substrate, and is made of a lamination film of a metallic film and a
transparent conductive film. In the connecting portion with the
anisotropic conductive film (195), a side surface of the connecting
wiring (183) is covered with a protecting film (173) made of an
insulating material. Accordingly, the portion in which the metallic film
is surrounded by the transparent conductive film, the insulating base
film, and the protecting film (173) to which it is in contact with, can
be avoided from exposure to air because the side surface of the metallic
film of the connecting wiring is covered with the protecting film (173).
