Abstract
A highly reliable flat cable is disclosed in which a short-circuit between adjacent electrodes due to whisker formation is prevented and the occurrence of contact failure between electrodes due to a foreign particle is prevented. A plasma display using this flat cable is also disclosed. The flat cable comprises a plurality of conductors and a pair of films having adhesive applied on the films so as to sandwich each of the conductors with a predetermined spacing. The conductors on the side of the flat cable or the conductors on the side of a connector electrically connected to the conductors on the side of the flat cable are formed of a lead-free material. Further, at a connecting portion of the flat cable, one of the films (2, 3) on which the adhesives (2a, 3a) are applied is removed to expose the conductors (1) to form electrodes (1a). A cover (11) is provided on the electrodes (1a) from which the film (2) has been removed. The cover is an insulating member having a partition wall (11a) between the adjacent electrodes (1a) and has openings formed in a hole shape or a comb shape at the portions of the electrodes (1a) of the flat cable.
