Abstract:
1. A solid-state imaging apparatus comprising: a solid-state imaging device mounted on a substrate; a bonding wire that electrically connects a pad formed on the solid-state imaging device to a lead island formed on the substrate; the bonding wire have a first end and a second end; a frame member that has a frame-like shape and surrounds side portions of the solid-state imaging device; and a light-transmissive optical member so accommodated in the frame member that the optical member faces an imaging surface of the solid-state imaging device, wherein the frame member has a first leg portion extending from the side where the optical member is present toward the imaging surface, and the frame member is integrally fixed to the solid-state imaging device with an end of the bonding wire that is connected to the pad covered with the leg portion, wherein the frame member is so fixed to the solid-state imaging device that the first leg portion is bonded to the imaging surface with an adhesive that covers the pad and the first end of the bonding wire, and wherein the frame member has a second leg portion extending by the side portions of the solid-state imaging device toward the substrate, and the second leg portion is bonded to the substrate and covers the second end of the bonding wire.
