Patent ID: 7375421

Claim:
A circuit module comprising: a component-embedded sheet embedded with a plurality of electronic components, the plurality of electronic components are buried in the component-embedded sheet and grouped into a plurality of circuit blocks; at least one respective projecting electrode attached to each of the plurality of electronic components with at least surfaces of the projecting electrodes of the electronic components exposed from the sheet; the component-embedded sheet is folded along boundaries between the circuit blocks so as to form the plurality of stacked circuit blocks connected via bended portions, a wiring pattern disposed in at least the bended portions touches a) the at least one projecting electrode attached to one of the plurality of electronic components disposed in one of the plurality of circuit blocks, and b) the at least one projecting electrode attached to at least one other of the plurality of electronic components disposed in one other adjacent circuit block, a cover sheet coats the wiring pattern, and the component-embedded sheet and the cover sheet are thermal-bonded resulting in the component-embedded sheet being integrated with the cover sheet such that a visual boundary between the component-embedded sheet and the cover sheet is removed after thermal bonding.
