Micro-optical image stabilizer

A micro-optical image stabilizer for stabilizing an image sensed by an image sensor, the micro-optical image stabilizer comprising:

• a substrate;
• a carrier moveably disposed on the substrate for carrying the image sensor;
• a first anchor fixed on the substrate;
• a first conducting pad fixed on the first anchor for coupling an image processing circuit;
• a flexible suspension disposed on the first anchor;
• a connecting arm connecting the flexible suspension;
• a second conducting pad for coupling the image sensor for receiving an electrical signal from the image sensor;
• a conducting line disposed on the flexible suspension, the conducting line comprising:
• a first end coupled to the first conducting pad;
• and
• a second end coupled to the second conducting pad;
• and
• a micro-actuator coupled to an actuator control circuit for adjusting a position of the carrier relative to the substrate according to control signals transmitted from the actuator control circuit.
