MODULE

1 . A module comprising:

a board having an upper surface and a lower surface opposite to the upper surface, the board having a through-hole provided therein, the though-hole communicating with the upper surface and the lower surface;

an auxiliary board having a upper surface and a lower surface opposite to the upper surface of the auxiliary board, the upper surface of the auxiliary board being situated on the lower surface of the board, the auxiliary board including a sealing portion sealing the through-hole;

a first electronic component mounted on the upper surface of the board;

a conductive cover covering the first electronic component; and

a second electronic component mounted on the upper surface of the auxiliary board, the second electronic component positioned in the through-hole in the board, the second electronic component being taller than the first electronic component.

2 . The module of claim 1 , further comprising a land provided on the lower surface of the auxiliary board at the sealing portion.

3 . The module of claim 2 , wherein the land functions as a grounding terminal.

4 . The module of claim 1 , further comprising:

a first solder for connecting the first electronic component to the board; and

a second solder for connecting the second electronic component to the auxiliary board, the second solder having a melting temperature higher than a melting temperature of the first solder.

5 . The module of claim 4 , further comprising a third solder for connecting the auxiliary board to the board, the third solder having a melting temperature higher than the melting temperature of the second solder.

6 . The module of claim 1 , further comprising a conductor facing a side surface of the second electronic component, the conductor being arranged to be grounded.

7 . The module of claim 6 , wherein the conductor is provided on an inner side surface of the through-hole.

8 . The module of claim 6 , further comprising a land connected to the conductor.

9 . The module of claim 6 , wherein

the cover is arranged to be connected to a ground, and

the cover includes

a cover top covering the first electronic component,

a side wall extending downward from the cover top and surrounding the first electronic component, and

a leg extending from the side wall and functioning as the conductor.

10 . The module of claim 9 , wherein the leg faces an outer side surface of the auxiliary board.

11 . The module of claim 9 , wherein the through-hole is a first cutout communicating with a periphery of the board.

12 . The module of claim 11 , wherein the auxiliary board has a second cutout provided therein, the second cutout communicating with the first cutout, said module further comprising a solder connecting the leg to a side surface of the second cutout.

13 . The module of claim 1 , wherein the auxiliary board is thinner than the board, and the auxiliary board is made of material having a linear expansion coefficient larger than a linear expansion coefficient of material of the board.

14 . The module of claim 13 , wherein the auxiliary board has a thickness 2.5 times or less larger than a thickness of the board.

15 . The module of claim 13 , further comprising a third electronic component placed on the lower surface of the board, wherein

the auxiliary board has a hole provided therein, the hole communicating with the upper surface of the auxiliary board and the lower surface of the auxiliary board, and

the third electronic component is disposed in the hole provided in the auxiliary board.

16 . The module of claim 15 , wherein the third electronic component has a height smaller than a thickness of the auxiliary board.
