## Abstract

A module includes: a substrate having a first surface; a first component mounted on the first surface; a resin film that covers the first component along a shape of the first component, and also covers a part of the first surface; a conductor film that covers at least a part of the resin film along the shape of the first component, and covers at least a part of a portion in which the resin film covers the part of the first surface; and a conductor structure disposed to extend over a part of the resin film. The conductor structure includes a first end portion, a second end portion, and an intermediate portion. The first end portion and the second end portion are connected to the first surface. The intermediate portion is in contact with the conductor film.
