Miniature camera plural image sensor arrangements

摘要

In some embodiments, a camera includes a first image sensor attached to a first ceramic substrate, a second image sensor attached to a second ceramic substrate, and a lens system including a set of lens elements serving both the first image sensor and the second image sensor, and a color-splitting component along an optical path between the lens system and the image sensors. The color-splitting component separates the light into a first set of wavelengths directed to the first image sensor and a second set of wavelengths directed to the second image sensor.

主权项

1. A camera, comprising:
a first image sensor attached to a first ceramic substrate; a second image sensor attached to a second ceramic substrate, wherein the second substrate is mounted at a right angle to the first substrate; first and second pluralities of electrical connection pads for connecting respective ones of the first and second ceramic substrates to respective flexible printed circuits, wherein the first and second pluralities of electrical connection pads are located on a same side of an edge of the respective image sensors; a lens system comprising a plurality of lens elements serving both the first image sensor and the second image sensor; and a color-splitting component along an optical path between the lens system and the image sensors, wherein
the color-splitting component separates the light into a first set of wavelengths directed along a first path to the first image sensor and a second set of wavelengths directed along a second path to the second image sensor, andthe first path lies at a right angle to the second path.
