Abstract

An electronic device is provided. The electronic device includes a substrate, a semiconductor unit, a wall, and a light-transmitting member. The semiconductor unit is mounted on the substrate. The wall is disposed on the substrate and surrounds the semiconductor unit. The wall includes two exterior wall components and two interior wall components. The two exterior wall components are spaced apart from each other, so that two gaps are formed between the two exterior wall components. The two gaps are in spatial communication with an installation area that is surrounded by the two exterior wall components. The two interior wall components are arranged in the installation area and spaced apart from each other. The two interior wall components correspond in position to the two gaps and respectively shade parts of the two gaps. The light-transmitting member is disposed on the wall and covered on the semiconductor unit.

Claims (25)

1. An electronic device, comprising:

a substrate;

a semiconductor unit mounted on the substrate;

a wall disposed on the substrate and surrounding the semiconductor unit, wherein the wall includes:

two exterior wall components, wherein the two exterior wall components are spaced apart from each other, so that two gaps are formed between the two exterior wall components, and wherein the two gaps are in spatial communication with an installation area that is surrounded by the two exterior wall components; and

two interior wall components arranged in the installation area and spaced apart from each other, wherein the two interior wall components correspond in position to the two gaps and respectively shade parts of the two gaps; and

a light-transmitting member disposed on the wall and covered on the semiconductor unit.

2. The electronic device according to claim 1 , wherein the semiconductor unit is a light-emitting unit.

3. The electronic device according to claim 2 , wherein the light-emitting unit is a vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser.

4. The electronic device according to claim 1 , wherein the light-transmitting member is supported by the two interior wall components.

5. The electronic device according to claim 4 , wherein each of the two interior wall components is made of metal material or covered by a metal layer on a surface thereof.

6. The electronic device according to claim 5 , wherein the light-transmitting member includes an inner detection circuit electrically coupled to the two interior wall components.

7. The electronic device according to claim 6 , wherein each of the two exterior wall components is made of metal material or covered by a metal layer on a surface thereof.

8. The electronic device according to claim 4 , wherein a part of each of the two exterior wall components is in a stepped shape, and includes:

a first step; and

a second step located on an inner side of the first step, wherein a shortest distance between a top surface of the second step and the substrate is less than a shortest distance between a top surface of the first step and the substrate.

9. The electronic device according to claim 8 , wherein the light-transmitting member is supported by the second steps of the two interior wall components at a same time.

10. The electronic device according to claim 9 , wherein the light-transmitting member includes an outer detection circuit electrically coupled to the two exterior wall components.

11. The electronic device according to claim 10 , wherein the outer detection circuit is electrically coupled to the two exterior wall components by an electrically conductive agent.

12. The electronic device according to claim 11 , wherein each of the two exterior wall components has a groove formed thereon for receiving a part of the electrically conductive agent.

13. The electronic device according to claim 8 , further comprising an adhesive agent; wherein the adhesive agent is correspondingly disposed on the top surfaces of the two second steps and the top surfaces of the two interior wall components, so as to fix the light-transmitting member.

14. The electronic device according to claim 13 , wherein the adhesive agent is a UV curable resin.

15. The electronic device according to claim 1 , wherein the two interior wall components do not contact the two exterior wall components.

16. The electronic device according to claim 1 , wherein each of the two gaps has a minimum width that is within a range from 0.05 mm to 2 mm.

17. The electronic device according to claim 1 , further comprising a detection unit mounted on the substrate.
