Abstract:
A solid-state imaging device comprising:a not-packaged solid-state imaging chip; a circuit board which is combined with a plane of the solid-state imaging chip opposite to an imaging plane of the solid-state imaging chip and having a vertical substrate fixed to the plane of the solid-state imaging chip and a horizontal substrate orthogonal to the vertical substrate, wherein at least one electronic component is mounted on the circuit board; and a connection means including a film on which a wiring pattern is formed, the wiring pattern being for electrically connecting a bonding pad provided for an outer peripheral portion of the imaging plane of the solid-state imaging chip with a bonding pad provided on the vertical substrate of the circuit board, a thickness of said film protrudes substantially 35 to 50 &mgr;m in a vertical direction over a top of the imaging chip; wherein said electronic component is mounted on the horizontal substrate of the circuit board formed to be lower than an outline of said solid-state imaging chip and a signal cable is connected to an end of said horizontal substrate so that said electronic component mounted on said circuit board and a terminal portion of the signal cable are arranged in a projection area of said solid-state imaging chip.
