Abstract

A module component with a good shield effect and a low height including a circuit board having mounted thereon a mount device including an electronic part. The device is sealed with a sealing body having a metal film formed on the sealing body surface. A ground pattern is formed at the outer periphery of the principal surface of the circuit board. The metal film is conductively connected with the ground pattern.

Claims (7)

1. A module component comprising:

a circuit board carrying a mount device comprising an electronic part,

a sealing body that has the same outer shape as the outer shape of the circuit board and seals said mount device with a first resin, and

a metal film covering the surface of the sealing body and the side surface of the circuit board,

wherein (1) the sealing body has a dividing groove corresponding to a predetermined circuit block, (2) the dividing groove is sealed with a second resin, and (3) the metal film is connected to the ground pattern of the circuit board in at least one of a bottom surface of the dividing groove and a side surface of the dividing groove.

2. The module component of claim 1 , wherein (1) the sealing body has a dividing groove corresponding to the predetermined circuit block, and (2) the circuit block is electrically shielded from another circuit block.

3. The module component in claim 1 wherein the metal film has a configuration prepared by first forming a layer by means of electroless plating and then forming an electroplated layer on the layer formed by electroless plating.
