Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a camera device and an electronic device. The camera device comprises a rigid circuit board, an image sensor, and a heat dissipation member. The rigid circuit board comprises an extension portion extending laterally and a plurality of electrical contact pads. The extension portion comprises a board edge. The plurality of electrical contact pads are provided on the board edge. The image sensor comprises an image capture chip. The image capture chip may be directly fixed on the rigid circuit board, a heat dissipation space is left at a position which is below the rigid circuit board and corresponds to the image sensor when the board edge of the rigid circuit board is mated to a board edge connector of laterally connected type provided at one side of a main circuit board. The heat dissipation member may be provided in the heat dissipation space.

Claims (9)

1. An electronic device, comprising:

a main circuit board with an upper board surface;

a right angle board edge connector provided on the main circuit board; and

a camera device including:

a rigid circuit board with extension portion extending laterally, the extension portion comprising a board edge, the rigid circuit board including a plurality of electrical contact pads provided on the board edge and a bottom surface;

an image sensor including an image capture chip, the image capture chip being supported by the rigid circuit board;

a heat dissipation member provided on the bottom surface, the heat dissipation member aligned with the image capture chip; and

an outer casing, the heat dissipation member being positioned between the outer casing and the rigid circuit board, wherein the board edge of the rigid circuit board is mated to the board edge connector provided on the upper board surface of the main circuit board, the rigid circuit board extends above the upper board surface and protrudes past an edge of the main circuit board, the image sensor being positioned on the portion of the rigid circuit board that protrudes past an edge the main circuit board.

2. The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein heat dissipation member extends from above the upper board surface to below the upper board surface.
