Abstract

An exemplary imaging module package includes a substrate, an imaging sensor chip set on the substrate, a housing positioned on the substrate, and a lens module. The housing includes a first chamber enclosing the imaging sensor chip therein, a second chamber coaxially extending from the first chamber for receiving the lens module therein, and a shoulder between the first and second chambers. The shoulder abuts against a top surface of the imaging sensor chip.

Claims (18)

1. An imaging module package, comprising:

a substrate having a plurality of soldering pads thereon;

an imaging sensor chip set on the substrate, the soldering pads surrounding the imaging sensor chip;

a housing positioned on the substrate by a conductive adhesive, wherein the conductive adhesive covers the soldering pads on the substrate, the housing comprising a first chamber enclosing the imaging sensor chip therein, a second chamber coaxially being in communication with the first chamber, and a shoulder between the first and second chambers, the shoulder abutting against a top surface of the imaging sensor chip; and

a lens module received in the second chamber.

2. The imaging module package as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the imaging sensor chip is positioned to the substrate by a bonding adhesive.

3. The imaging module package as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the imaging sensor chip comprises a sensing area and has a plurality of soldering pads around the sensing area, and wherein the shoulder covers the soldering pads on the imaging sensor chip.

4. The imaging module package as claimed in claim 3 , wherein conductive traces are employed on an inner surface of the first chamber to electrically connect the soldering pads around the sensing area to the soldering pads on the substrate.

5. The imaging module package as claimed in claim 4 , wherein the conductive traces lie on the inner surface of the first chamber.

6. The imaging module package as claimed in claim 3 , wherein at least one dimension of the sensing area of the imaging sensor chip is less than at least one dimension of the second chamber projected to the substrate.

7. The imaging module package as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the lens module comprises a barrel movably received in the second chamber of the housing, and several lenses positioned in the barrel.

8. An imaging module package comprising:

a substrate having a plurality of soldering pads thereon;

an imaging sensor chip adhered to the substrate, the soldering pads surrounding the imaging sensor chip; and

a housing with a lens module thereon secured to the substrate by a conductive adhesive, wherein the conductive adhesive covers the soldering pads on the substrate, the housing comprising a first chamber enclosing the imaging sensor chip, a second chamber receiving the lens module, and a shoulder between the first and second chamber, the shoulder abutting against the imaging sensor chip.

9. The imaging module package as claimed in claim 8 , wherein a plurality of conductive traces is formed on an inner surface of the first chamber and electrically connect the imaging sensor chip to the substrate.

10. The imaging module package as claimed in claim 9 , wherein the substrate has a plurality of soldering pads surrounding the imaging sensor chip, and wherein the imaging sensor chip comprises a sensing area and has a plurality of soldering pads around the sensing area, and wherein the conductive traces electrically connect the soldering pads around the sensing area to the soldering pads on the substrate.

11. The imaging module package as claimed in claim 9 , wherein the conductive traces lie on the inner surface of the first chamber.
