Abstract

A module includes: a substrate having a first surface; a first component mounted on the first surface; a resin film covering the first component along a shape of the first component and covering a part of the first surface; and one or more wires disposed to extend over the first component on a side of the resin film farther from the substrate.

Claims (58)

1 . A module comprising:

a substrate having a first surface;

a first component mounted on the first surface;

a sheet-shaped resin film covering the first component along a shape of the first component and also covering a part of the first surface; and

one or more wires disposed to extend over the first component on a side of the resin film farther from the substrate,

wherein each of the one or more wires has a first end and a second end, and each of the one or more wires is separated from the resin film on the side of the first end and is in contact with the resin film on the side of the second end.

2 . The module according to claim 1 , wherein the one or more wires are a plurality of wires.

3 . The module according to claim 2 , wherein the first end is connected to a ground electrode provided on the first surface.

4 . The module according to claim 2 , further comprising:

a first sealing resin disposed to cover the first surface, the resin film, and the one or more wires; and

a shield film provided to cover an upper surface and a side surface of the first sealing resin and a side surface of the substrate.

5 . The module according to claim 1 , wherein the first end is connected to a ground electrode provided on the first surface.

6 . The module according to claim 5 , further comprising a second component mounted on the first surface, wherein the first end is connected to the ground electrode provided on the first surface between the first component and the second component.

7 . The module according to claim 6 , further comprising:

a first sealing resin disposed to cover the first surface, the resin film, the one or more wires, and the second component; and

a shield film provided to cover an upper surface and a side surface of the first sealing resin and a side surface of the substrate.

8 . The module according to claim 6 , wherein the second end is connected to the first surface.

9 . The module according to claim 6 , further comprising:

a first sealing resin disposed to cover the first surface, the resin film, and the one or more wires; and

a shield film provided to cover an upper surface and a side surface of the first sealing resin, wherein

the second end is electrically connected to the shield film on the side surface of the first sealing resin.

10 . The module according to claim 5 , wherein the second end is connected to the first surface.

11 . The module according to claim 5 , further comprising:

a first sealing resin disposed to cover the first surface, the resin film, and the one or more wires; and

a shield film provided to cover an upper surface and a side surface of the first sealing resin,

wherein the second end is electrically connected to the shield film on the side surface of the first sealing resin.

12 . The module according to claim 5 , wherein

the resin film has a cutout portion or an opening in a portion of the resin film covering the first surface,

the ground electrode is disposed in the cutout portion or the opening, and

the first end is connected to the ground electrode in the cutout portion or the opening.

13 . The module according to claim 5 , further comprising:

a first sealing resin disposed to cover the first surface, the resin film, and the one or more wires; and

a shield film provided to cover an upper surface and a side surface of the first sealing resin and a side surface of the substrate.

14 . The module according to claim 1 , further comprising:

a first sealing resin disposed to cover the first surface, the resin film, and the one or more wires; and

a shield film provided to cover an upper surface and a side surface of the first sealing resin and a side surface of the substrate.

15 . The module according to claim 1 , further comprising an antenna.

16 . The module according to claim 15 , wherein

the substrate has a second surface as a surface opposite to the first surface, and

the antenna is disposed inside the substrate along the second surface.

17 . The module according to claim 1 , wherein

the substrate has a second surface as a surface opposite to the first surface, and

a third component is mounted on the second surface.

18 . A module comprising:

a substrate having a first surface and a second surface that face opposite to each other;

a first component mounted on the first surface;

a second component mounted on the first surface;

a third component mounted on the second surface;

a resin film covering the first component along a shape of the first component and also covering a part of the first surface;

one or more wires disposed to extend over the first component on a side of the resin film farther from the substrate;

a first sealing resin disposed to cover the first surface, the resin film, the one or more wires, and the second component;

a second sealing resin disposed to cover the second surface and the third component; and

a shield film provided to cover an upper surface and a side surface of the second sealing resin and a side surface of the substrate and to cover a side surface of the first sealing resin, wherein

a ground electrode is provided on the first surface between the first component and the second component,

each of the one or more wires has a first end and a second end,

the first end is electrically connected to the ground electrode, and

the second end is connected to the first surface or electrically connected to the shield film on the side surface of the first sealing resin.

19 . The module according to claim 18 , wherein each of the one or more wires is separated from the resin film in the side of the first end and is in contact with the resin film in the side of the second end.
