Abstract

A miniaturization image capturing module includes a substrate unit, an image capturing unit, a fixing glue unit, and a lens unit. The substrate unit includes a hollow substrate body, a plurality of top conductive pads, a plurality of bottom conductive pads, a plurality of embedded conductive traces. The hollow substrate body has at least one receiving space, and each embedded conductive trace is electrically connected between at least one of the top conductive pads and at least one of the bottom conductive pads. The image capturing unit includes at least one image capturing chip received in the receiving space and electrically connected to the substrate unit. The fixing glue unit includes a fixing glue disposed in the receiving space and fixed between the hollow substrate body and the image capturing chip. The lens unit is disposed on the top side of the hollow substrate body.

Claims (22)
