Abstract
A camera module includes a lens; an image sensor disposed on a substrate and converting an optical signal refracted by the lens into an electrical signal, an adhesive member disposed between the substrate and the image sensor to fix the image sensor to the substrate, and a support member disposed between the substrate and the image sensor configured to maintain a constant distance between the lens and the image sensor even at a time of shrinkage-deformation of the adhesive member.
Claims18
A camera module comprising:
- a lens;
- an image sensor disposed on a substrate;
- an adhesive member disposed between the substrate and the image sensor;
- and
- a support member disposed on the substrate and contacted with the image sensor,
- wherein the support member comprises a bonding wire form, and
- wherein the bonding wire comprises a portion in contact with a lower portion of the image sensor.
A camera module comprising:
- a lens;
- a substrate comprising a groove;
- an image sensor disposed in the groove;
- an adhesive member fixing the image sensor to the groove;
- and
- a support member disposed in the groove configured to maintain a constant distance between the lens and the image sensor,
- wherein the support member comprises a bonding wire form.
A camera module, comprising:
- a substrate;
- a support member disposed on the substrate;
- an image sensor disposed on the support member;
- an adhesive member bonded to the substrate and the image sensor, wherein the adhesive member thickness in a direction from the substrate to the image sensor is predetermined by the image sensor disposed against the support member;
- and
- a lens,
- wherein the support member comprises a plastically deformed portion to align the image sensor and the lens by a predetermined distance.
A camera module comprising:
- a lens;
- a substrate comprising a groove;
- an image sensor disposed in the groove;
- an adhesive member fixing the image sensor to the groove;
- and
- a support member disposed in the groove and contacted with a bottom of the image sensor,
- wherein the substrate comprises:
- a first substrate member in which a through-hole corresponding to the groove is formed;
- and
- a second substrate member coupled to the first substrate member and closing a lower portion of the through-hole.
