Abstract

To provide a solid-state image sensing device that is capable of improving the connection reliability of bonding pads and bonding wires. A solid-state image sensing element 1 of the present invention contains a long plate-shaped metal substrate 16 , a long plate-shaped solid-state image sensing element 4 fixed to the surface of the metal substrate 16 via an adhesive layer 18 , and bonding pads 6 , formed on the surface of the solid-state image sensing element 4 , for electrically connecting to the lead frame via bonding wires 14 . The adhesive layer 18 contains a first adhesive layer 18 a , and a second adhesive layer 18 b of a higher modulus of elasticity than the first adhesive layer 18 a , and at the regions directly below the bonding pads 6 provided at both end sections in a longitudinal direction of the solid-state image sensing element 4 , the metal substrate 16 and the solid-state image sensing element 4 are fixed via the second adhesive layer 18 b.

Claims (12)

1. A solid-state image sensing device comprising:

a long plate-shaped metal substrate;
