Abstract

An electronic device module includes a wiring board having a first surface including first and second electrodes formed thereon and a second surface opposite to the first surface, a supporting member attached to the second surface of the wiring board, a first electronic unit mounted on the first surface of the wiring board and electrically connected to the first electrode, and a second electronic unit mounted on the first surface of the wiring board and electrically connected to the second electrode. The wiring board includes a wiring extending from the first electronic unit to a position closer to the second electronic unit, and a reinforcement layer disposed between the first and second electronic units and apart from the wiring in a thickness direction of the wiring board.

Claims (63)

1. An electronic device module, comprising:

a wiring board having a first surface including first and second electrodes formed thereon and a second surface opposite to the first surface;

a second electronic unit mounted on the first surface of the wiring board and electrically connected to the second electrode, wherein

the wiring board includes a wiring extending from a first position of the first electronic unit to a second position that is closer to the second electronic unit than the first position is, and a reinforcement layer disposed between the first and second electronic units and apart from the wiring in a thickness direction of the wiring board.

2. The electronic device module according to claim 1 , wherein

the wiring is disposed on the first surface of the wiring board, and the reinforcement layer is disposed on the second surface of the wiring board.

3. The electronic device module according to claim 1 , wherein

the wiring overlaps the reinforcement layer in a direction perpendicular to a plane of the wiring board.

4. The electronic device module according to claim 1 , wherein

the reinforcement layer is formed of a conductive material.

5. The electronic device module according to claim 4 , wherein

the reinforcement layer is electrically connected to a ground potential.

6. The electronic device module according to claim 1 , further comprising:

a cover layer covering the first surface of the wiring board, including a region of the first surface corresponding to the first and second electronic units and a region of the first surface on which the wiring is formed.

7. The electronic device module according to claim 6 , wherein

the first and second electronic units are arranged in a first direction within a plane of the wiring board, and

a width of the reinforcement layer in a second direction within the plane of the wiring board that is perpendicular to the first direction, is greater than a width of the cover layer in the second direction.

8. The electronic device module according to claim 1 , further comprising:

a fixing member fixing the wiring board to the supporting member, wherein

the wiring board includes a wiring extending from the first electronic unit towards the fixing member.

9. The electronic device module according to claim 8 , wherein

the wiring board further includes a second reinforcement layer disposed in a region between the first electronic unit and the fixing member.

10. The electronic device module according to claim 1 , wherein
