CMOS type image sensor module having transparent polymeric encapsulation material

摘要

A CMOS type of image sensor module for use in a mobile camera or a PC camera includes an image sensoring semiconductor chip encapsulated in a transparent block of polymeric material on a substrate having a circuit to which the ship is connected. The image sensoring semiconductor chip is disposed on an upper surface of the substrate as spaced vertically from a digital signal processing second semiconductor chip mounted on a lower surface of the substrate. The transparent polymeric encapsulation material constitutes a sealing resin unit. The digital signal processing second semiconductor chip may also be encapsulated by the sealing resin unit. The sealing transfer unit can be formed by injection and/or transfer molding. The forming of the sealing resin unit by a single molding process keeps production costs low.
