Patent ID: 8107005

Claim:
A method of manufacturing an image sensor module which includes a lower substrate having a plurality of top pads formed on the top surface thereof; an upper substrate that is installed along the edge of the top surface of the lower substrate and has a plurality of connection grooves formed on the inner side surface thereof, each connection groove having a side pad corresponding to each of the top pads of the lower substrate; and an image sensor installed on the top surface of the upper substrate, the method comprising: mounting various elements on the central portion of the top surface of the lower substrate; installing the upper substrate on the top surface of the lower substrate so that a bottom surface of the upper substrate and the top surface of the lower substrate are contacted; electrically connecting the top pads to the sides pads by bonding conductive paste to regions defined by contacting the top pads of the lower substrate and the side pads of the upper substrate; and mounting the image sensor on the top surface of the upper substrate.
