Description

Molded circuit board, camera module, manufacturing method of camera module and electronic equipment
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of electronic information, in particular to a molded circuit board, a camera module, a manufacturing method of the camera module and electronic equipment.
Background
The circuit board is one of the core components of various electronic devices, and can provide mechanical support for fixing and assembling various electronic components such as an integrated circuit, so as to realize wiring, electrical connection and electrical insulation among the various electronic components. Generally, a wiring board is a conductive pattern formed by forming a printed wiring, a printed element, or a combination of both on an insulating substrate according to a predetermined design. The types of wiring boards generally include single-sided wiring boards, double-sided wiring boards, and multilayer wiring boards. The single-sided circuit board or the double-sided circuit board is generally formed by etching a circuit on a copper clad laminate having a single-sided copper clad layer or a double-sided copper clad layer (of course, a punching process is also applied to a part of the circuit board), and the copper clad laminate is formed by laminating a copper foil and a substrate (the substrate is made of an insulating material). Multilayer wiring boards are generally manufactured by a lamination method, which is mainly formed by laminating a plurality of wiring layers (currently, the material of the wiring layer is generally copper) and a plurality of substrates, and then drilling via holes (not shown) between the wiring layers on the multilayer wiring board to electrically connect the wiring layers.
At present, whether a single-sided circuit board, a double-sided circuit board or a multilayer circuit board, a circuit board manufactured by a lamination method or a circuit board manufactured by an additive method, the surface of the circuit board is generally provided with exposed circuits, via holes, pads and a substrate, therefore, a layer of ink layer is generally arranged on the surface of the circuit board in a printing, curtain-spraying, spraying or roll-coating mode and is used for solder mask insulation (namely, all circuits and copper surfaces on the circuit board are covered by the ink layer, and through holes to be welded and pads of the circuit board are reserved, short circuit is prevented from being caused when electronic components are welded, and meanwhile, the circuits can be prevented from being conducted) and a protective circuit board (namely, all circuits on the circuit board are covered by the ink layer, and the circuits are prevented from being oxidized to harm the electrical performance due to the invasion of moisture and various dielectrics, and external mechanical injury can be prevented).
However, as the performance of electronic devices is higher, the chips mounted on the circuit board generate more heat, and the heat dissipation performance of the ink is relatively poor, which may seriously affect the heat dissipation of the circuit board and the chips, thereby causing the performance of the electronic devices to be degraded. Especially for the module of making a video recording, the sensitization chip of the module of making a video recording is usually installed on the circuit board by the subsides, because the existence of printing ink layer makes the heat-sinking capability of this circuit board relatively poor, and then influences the heat dissipation of this sensitization chip, can lead to the performance of this module of making a video recording to seriously descend.
In addition, because the laying process (printing, curtain coating, spraying, rolling coating, or the like) of the ink layer has an inherent defect that the surface of the ink layer is not smooth, for an electronic device such as a camera module which needs to directly attach a chip to a circuit board, the ink layer on the circuit board causes the problems of inclination, bending, and the like of the attachment of the chip to the circuit board, and errors are brought to the assembly of the electronic device, so that the performance of the electronic device is reduced.
In addition, because the ink layer lacks plastic deformation capability and toughness, the ink layer on the surface of the circuit board is easy to break, so that stains can be generated to damage the circuit on the circuit board, and the performance of the electronic equipment is further influenced.

The circuit board is an essential part of electronic equipment and mainly provides mechanical support for fixing and assembling various electronic components such as integrated circuits. Circuit boards generally include single-sided circuit boards, double-sided circuit boards, and multilayer circuit boards, and since the surfaces of various circuit boards generally have exposed lines, vias, pads, and substrates, therefore, in the prior art, an ink layer is usually disposed on the surface of the circuit board by printing, curtain coating, spraying or roller coating, for example, a layer of ink is first disposed by spraying, then the photosensitive reaction of the photosensitive resist is utilized to transfer the conductive pattern on the film to the ink of the circuit board, and then ultraviolet rays are irradiated, because the transparent part outside the conductive pattern on the film is penetrated by ultraviolet rays, the corresponding printing ink on the surface of the circuit board is subjected to photopolymerization and changed into a polymer from a monomer, and finally, the printing ink which is not subjected to photopolymerization on the surface of the circuit board is removed through weak alkaline solution, so that the copper surface is exposed, and the purpose is to insulate and protect the circuit board in a solder-proof manner.
However, as the performance of electronic equipment is higher and higher, the chips or other devices mounted on the circuit board generate more heat, and the heat dissipation performance of the ink is relatively poor, which seriously affects the heat dissipation of the circuit board, thereby causing the performance of the electronic equipment to be reduced. Especially for the module of making a video recording, the sensitization chip of the module of making a video recording is usually directly mounted on the circuit board, because the existence of printing ink layer makes the heat-sinking capability of this circuit board relatively poor, and then influences the heat dissipation of this sensitization chip, can lead to the performance of this module of making a video recording to seriously descend. In addition, because the laying process (printing, curtain coating, spraying, rolling coating, or the like) of the ink layer has an inherent defect that the surface of the ink layer is not smooth, for an electronic device such as a camera module which needs to directly attach a chip to a circuit board, the ink layer on the circuit board causes the problems of inclination, bending, and the like of the attachment of the chip to the circuit board, and errors are brought to the assembly of the electronic device, so that the performance of the electronic device is reduced. Therefore, in order to solve the above problems, the present invention provides a molded circuit board and a method for manufacturing the same, which can improve the heat dissipation performance and/or the flatness of the circuit board, and contribute to the improvement of the performance of various electronic devices equipped with the molded circuit board.
It should be noted that although fig. 1 to fig. 8B and the following description use a circuit board of a camera module as an example to illustrate features and advantages of the molded circuit board of the present invention, it can be understood by those skilled in the art that the molded circuit board disclosed in fig. 1 to fig. 8B and the following description is only an example and does not limit the content and scope of the present invention.
Referring to fig. 1 to 3B of the drawings of the specification, a molded wiring board, a method of manufacturing the same, and a camera module according to an embodiment of the present invention are illustrated. Specifically, as shown in fig. 1 and fig. 2, the camera module 1 includes a lens assembly 10, at least one photosensitive chip 20, and a molded circuit board 30, wherein each photosensitive chip 20 is attached to the molded circuit board 30, and each photosensitive chip 20 is electrically connected to the molded circuit board 30, wherein the lens assembly 10 includes at least one optical lens 11, wherein the lens assembly 10 is correspondingly disposed on the molded circuit board 30, and each optical lens 11 is located in a photosensitive path of the corresponding photosensitive chip 20, so as to assemble the camera module 1.
Specifically, as shown in fig. 2 and fig. 3A, the molded circuit board 30 includes a circuit board main body 31 and a molded structure 32, wherein the circuit board main body 31 includes at least one circuit layer 310 and at least one substrate layer 314, wherein the circuit layer 310 and the substrate layer 314 are stacked at intervals, wherein the molded structure 32 includes a molded layer 321, wherein the molded layer 321 is stacked on at least one surface of the circuit board main body 31 to cover at least a portion of the substrate layer 314 of the circuit board main body 31. It is understood that the substrate layer 314 of the circuit board main body 31 may be, but not limited to, made of Polyimide Film (PI Film) or Polypropylene (PP).
Specifically, the molding layer 321 of the molding structure 32 is formed by curing an insulating molding material 320 on at least one surface of the circuit board main body 31 through a molding die. It can be understood that, because the molding structure 32 is directly and integrally formed on the surface of the circuit board main body 31 by a molding process, the molding structure 32 not only can improve the flatness of the circuit board main body 31 to provide a chip mounting surface with higher flatness, but also can be directly combined with the circuit board main body 31, so as to increase the bonding strength between the two, prevent the molding structure 32 from loosening or falling off, and contribute to prolonging the service life of the molding structure 32.
Notably, in the invention, the thickness of the molding layer 321 of the molding structure 32 is between 10 micrometers and 100 micrometers. Preferably, the thickness of the molding layer 321 of the molding structure 32 is between 10 and 50 micrometers. It is understood that the thickness of the circuit layer 310 of the circuit board main body 31 is generally between 10 microns and 50 microns (generally about 25 microns), while the thickness of the ink layer in the conventional circuit board is also about 25 microns.
Preferably, the heat dissipation efficiency of the insulating molding material 320 is greater than that of the ink material, so that the heat dissipation performance of the molded circuit board 30 is superior to that of the circuit board on which the ink layer is disposed, and the overall heat dissipation performance of the camera module 1 is improved.
More preferably, the insulating Molding material 320 is implemented as an Epoxy Molding Compound (EMC material), which enables the molded circuit board 30 to avoid the problem of contamination caused by the broken ink layer, which is the case with the existing circuit board, and helps to improve the protection of the circuit board main body. It can be understood that, since the heat dissipation efficiency of the EMC material is usually 1W to 3W, and the heat dissipation efficiency of the ink material is usually only 0.2W, the heat dissipation performance of the molded circuit board 30 of the present invention is better than that of the conventional ink circuit board, which is beneficial to meet the development requirement of high performance of the current electronic device. Of course, in other examples of the present invention, the insulating molding material 320 may also be implemented as other insulating molding materials with good heat dissipation performance, as long as the heat dissipation efficiency is better than that of the ink material, and the present invention is not described herein again.
It should be noted that although the features and advantages of the camera module 1 of the present invention are described in the accompanying fig. 1 to 5D and the following description by taking the camera module 1 as an example including only one optical lens 11 and one photo sensor chip 20, it can be understood by those skilled in the art that the camera module 1 disclosed in the accompanying fig. 1 to 5D and the following description is only an example and does not limit the content and scope of the present invention, for example, in other examples of the camera module, the number of the optical lens 11 and the photo sensor chip 20 may be more than one to form an array camera module. In addition, the type of the optical lens 10 can be adjusted according to the requirements of the camera module, for example, the optical lens 10 can be implemented as an integrated optical lens, a split optical lens, a bare lens, or an optical lens including a lens barrel, and the like, which is not limited in the present invention. The type of the circuit board main body 31 of the molded circuit board 30 can be adjusted accordingly according to the requirements of the camera module, for example, in this embodiment of the present invention, the circuit board main body 31 can be implemented as a multilayer circuit board. In other examples of the present invention, the wiring board main body 31 may be implemented as other types of wiring boards such as a single-sided wiring board or a double-sided wiring board.
Illustratively, as shown in fig. 2 and fig. 3A, in this embodiment of the present invention, the circuit layers 310 of the circuit board main body 31 of the molded circuit board 30 include a front circuit layer 311, at least one intermediate circuit layer 312, and a back circuit layer 313, wherein all of the substrate layers 314 are arranged in a stacked manner, wherein the front circuit layer 311 and the back circuit layer 312 are stacked on outermost sides of the substrate layers 314, respectively, and each of the intermediate circuit layers 312 is stacked between adjacent substrate layers 314, respectively, to form the circuit board main body 31 by press-fitting. It is understood that the front circuit layer 311, the middle circuit layer 312 and the back circuit layer 313 may be electrically connected, but not limited to, through via holes (not shown) formed in the circuit board main body 31. Of course, the circuit board main body 31 may also be formed by stacking one front circuit layer 311 and one substrate layer 314 on each other to form a single-sided circuit board; alternatively, the circuit board main body 31 may be formed by stacking one front surface circuit layer 311, one substrate layer 314, and one rear surface circuit layer 313 on top of one another to form a double-sided circuit board.
It is noted that the front surface circuit layer 311, the middle circuit layer 312 and the back surface circuit layer 313 are respectively defined according to the position of the circuit layer 310 in the circuit board main body 31, for example, the circuit layer 310 on the front surface of the circuit board main body 31 is defined as the front surface circuit layer 311, the circuit layer 310 in the middle of the circuit board main body 31 is defined as the middle circuit layer 312, and the circuit layer 310 on the back surface of the circuit board main body 31 is defined as the back surface circuit layer 313. It is understood that, in the present invention, the surface of the circuit board main body 31 for attaching the photosensitive chip 20 is defined as the front surface of the circuit board main body 31 (e.g., the upper surface of the circuit board main body 31 in fig. 2); the surface of the wiring board main body 31 opposite to the surface to which the photosensitive chip 20 is attached is defined as the reverse surface of the wiring board main body 31 (the lower surface of the wiring board main body 31 in fig. 2).
Further, in this embodiment of the present invention, as shown in fig. 2 and fig. 3A, the front surface circuit layer 311 of the circuit board main body 31 of the molded circuit board 30 includes a front surface conductive circuit 3111 and a set of pads 3112, wherein each of the pads 3112 is conductively connected to the front surface conductive circuit 3111; the back side wiring layer 313 includes only a back side conductive wiring 3131, and does not include any pad. In other words, in this embodiment of the present invention, all the pads are concentrated on the front surface of the circuit board main body 31, so that various electronic components and the photosensitive chip 20 can only be disposed on the front surface of the circuit board main body 31, which is beneficial to reducing the height of the molded circuit board 30, and thus the overall height of the camera module 1. Of course, in other examples of the present invention, the reverse side circuit layer 313 may also include a pad for soldering various electronic components, which is not described in detail herein.
It is noted that, as shown in fig. 2, the main board body 31 has a chip mounting region 3101 and an edge region 3102, wherein the edge region 3102 is located around the chip mounting region 3101, and the pad 3112 is located at the edge region 3102 of the main board body 31. Thus, when the photosensitive chip 20 is mounted on the chip mounting region 3101 of the board main body 31 of the molded board 30, the photosensitive chip 20 can be electrically connected to the pad 3112 through a wire to conduct the photosensitive chip 20 and the molded board 30. Of course, in other examples of the present invention, when the pad of the photosensitive chip 20 is located on a non-photosensitive surface of the photosensitive chip 20 (e.g., a back surface of the photosensitive chip 20), the pad 3112 of the front circuit layer 311 may also be located in the chip mounting region 3101 of the circuit board main body 31, which is not described in detail herein.
Preferably, the surface of the front side conductive line 3111 of the front side circuit layer 311 is flush with the surface of the pad 3112 of the front side circuit layer 311. For example, the front surface conductive traces 3111 and the pads 3112 of the front surface trace layer 311 of the circuit board main body 31 are etched through a whole piece of copper foil to ensure that the surface of the front surface conductive traces 3111 is flush with the surface of the pads 3112. Of course, in other examples of the present invention, the front side conductive line 3111 and the pad 3112 may also be manufactured by other processes, and the present invention is not described in detail herein.
According to the above embodiment of the present invention, as shown in fig. 3A, the molding layer 321 of the molding structure 32 of the molded circuit board 30 includes a front molding layer 3211, wherein the front molding layer 3211 is stacked on the front surface of the circuit board main body 31 to cover the substrate layer 314 on the front surface of the circuit board main body 31. Specifically, the front surface molding layer 3211 may cover the surfaces of the front surface conductive traces 3111 of the front surface circuit layer 311 (i.e., the front surface molding layer 3211 covers the conductive traces 3111 located in the chip mounting region 3101 and the edge region 3102 of the circuit board main body 31 and the surfaces of the substrate layers 314 located in the front surface of the circuit board main body 31, and the front surface molding layer 3211 does not cover the surfaces of the pads 3112 of the front surface circuit layer 311.
In other words, the molding layer 321 of the molding structure 32 of the molded circuit board 30 includes a front molding layer 3211 formed by curing the insulating molding material 320 on the front surface of the circuit board main body 31 through a molding process, wherein the surface of the pad 3112 of the front circuit layer 311 is exposed because the front molding layer 3211 is not coated, and the surface of the front conductive circuit 3111 of the front circuit layer 311 and the surface of the substrate layer 314 on the front surface of the circuit board main body 31 are protected because the front molding layer 3211 is coated. It can be understood that, just because the bonding pad 3112 is exposed, and the front surface conductive trace 3111 is covered by the front surface molding layer 3211, the front surface molding layer 3211 of the molding structure 32 can perfectly replace the ink layer to function as a solder-proof insulation and a protection circuit board. Meanwhile, the heat dissipation efficiency of the insulating molding material 320 used for molding the front molding layer 3211 is greater than that of an ink material, so the front molding layer 3211 can also improve the heat dissipation performance of the molded circuit board 30.
When the molded circuit board 30 is manufactured, one of the circuit board main bodies 31 may be placed in a molding mold 50 to perform a molding process, so as to form the front molding layer 3211 of the molding structure 32 by curing the insulating molding material 320 on the front surface of the circuit board main body 31, wherein the front molding layer 3211 covers the front surface conductive circuit 3111 of the front surface circuit layer 311 and the surface of the substrate layer 314 on the front surface of the circuit board main body 31, and exposes the bonding pad 3112 to the outside for power connection to various electronic components and chips.
Specifically, as shown in fig. 3A, the molding die 50 includes an upper die 51, wherein the upper die 51 can be moved to perform a clamping and pulling operation, and when the molding die 50 is in a clamped state, a front molding space 510 is formed between the upper die 51 and the front surface of the circuit board main body 31, wherein the front molding layer 3211 of the die set structure 32 is formed by the insulating molding material being added to the front molding space 510 and being cured. It is understood that the height of the front molding space 510 of the forming mold 50 is between 10 micrometers and 100 micrometers. Preferably, the height of the front molding space 510 of the forming mold 50 is between 10 micrometers and 50 micrometers to mold the front molding layer 321 satisfying the thickness requirement.
More specifically, as shown in fig. 3A, the upper mold 51 of the molding mold 50 has a pressing surface 511 and an upper molding surface 512, wherein the pressing surfaces 511 of the upper mold 51 correspond to the pads 3112 of the front circuit layer 311 of the circuit board main body 31, respectively, and the pressing surface 511 of the upper mold 51 is lower than the upper molding surface 512 of the upper mold 51 (i.e., the upper mold 51 has a step-shaped inner surface), so that when the pressing surface 511 of the upper mold 51 presses the corresponding pad 3112, a gap is still left between the upper molding surface 512 of the upper mold 51 and the front conductive circuit 3111, so as to ensure that the insulating molding material 320 can enter the gap between the upper molding surface 512 of the upper mold 51 and the front conductive circuit 3111, so that the cured front molding layer 3211 can cover the front conductive circuit 3111, to protect the front side conductive line 3111.
For example, as shown in fig. 3A, after the circuit board main body 31 is placed in the upper mold 51, the upper mold 51 is operated to clamp the upper mold 51, so that the pressing surface 511 of the upper mold 51 is pressed on the surface of the pad 3112, and the front molding space 510 is formed between the upper molding surface 512 of the upper mold 51 and the front surface conductive line 3111 of the front surface circuit layer 311 and the surface of the substrate layer 314; then, the insulating molding material 320 is injected into the front molding space 510 to form the front molding layer 3211 that covers the front conductive trace 3111 and the substrate layer 314 at the same time after curing, so as to manufacture the molded circuit board 30 (or a molded circuit board semi-finished product); finally, after the insulating molding material 320 is cured to form the front molding layer 3211, the upper mold 51 is operated to perform drawing, and the molded wiring board 30 (or a molded wiring board semi-finished product) is taken out from the molding mold 50.
It should be noted that, as shown in fig. 3A, since the pressing surface 511 of the upper mold 51 presses the surface of the pad 3112 during the molding process, so that the insulating molding material 320 cannot cover the surface of the pad 3112, a groove 3210 is formed on the front molding layer 3211 formed by curing the insulating molding material 320 at a position corresponding to the pad 3112, so that the surface of the pad 3112 is exposed, so as to electrically connect various electronic components with the molding circuit board 30. In particular, when an electronic component is soldered to the pad 3112 for electrical connection to the mold wiring board 30, since the groove 3210 is formed at a position on the front molding layer 3211 corresponding to the pad 3112, outflow of molten solder can be effectively prevented, and thus the mold structure 32 can improve structural strength and heat dissipation performance of the mold wiring board 30, and simultaneously avoid waste of resources due to outflow of molten solder, which also contributes to improvement of soldering performance at the pad 3112.
In addition, since the front molding layer 3211 is integrally formed by a molding process, the front molding layer 3211 can provide a flat chip mounting surface for mounting the photosensitive chip 20, so as to reduce the possibility of inclination or bending of the mounting of the photosensitive chip 20, which is helpful for reducing mounting errors and improving the performance of the camera module 1. Even for a photosensitive chip with a larger size, the front molding layer 3211 can control the mounting error of the chip within a controllable range, so as to ensure that the image pickup mold 1 has higher performance.
Fig. 4A shows a first variant embodiment of the molded wiring board 30 of the camera module 1 according to the above-described embodiment of the invention. The molded wiring board 30 according to the first modified embodiment of the present invention is different from the above-described example according to the present invention in that: the front surface molding layer 3211 of the molding structure 32 covers only the surface of the substrate layer 314 of the circuit board main body 31, but does not cover the front surface conductive line 3111 and the bonding pad 3112 of the front surface circuit layer 311, that is, the front surface conductive line 3111 and the bonding pad 3112 of the front surface circuit layer 311 are both exposed.
Specifically, as shown in fig. 4A, the upper mold 51 of the forming mold 50 only has a pressing surface 511 (that is, the upper mold 51 has a flat inner surface), so that when the pressing surface 511 of the upper mold 51 is pressed on the pad 3112, there is no gap between the pressing surface 511 of the upper mold 51 and the front conductive line 3111, so that the front molding layer 3211 formed by curing only covers the surface of the substrate layer 314 of the circuit board main body 31, and the front conductive line 3111 and the pad 3112 of the front circuit layer 311 are both exposed.
For example, as shown in fig. 4A, after the circuit board main body 31 is placed in the upper mold 51, the upper mold 51 is operated to clamp the upper mold 51, so that the press-fit surface 511 of the upper mold 51 is simultaneously pressed against the surface of the pad 3112 and the surface of the front surface conductive line 3111, and the front surface molding space 510 is formed between the press-fit surface 511 of the upper mold 51 and the surface of the substrate layer 314 of the circuit board main body 31; then, injecting the insulating molding material 320 into the front molding space 510 to form the front molding layer 3211 only covering the surface of the substrate layer 314 after curing, thereby manufacturing the molded circuit board 30; finally, after the insulating molding material 320 is cured to form the front molding layer 3211, the upper mold 51 is operated to perform drawing, and the molded wiring board 30 is taken out from the molding mold 50.
It is to be noted that, in this first modified embodiment of the present invention, since the front conductive trace 3111 of the front circuit layer 311 of the circuit board main body 31 is still exposed outside the front molding layer 3211, so that the front conductive trace 3111 still has the risk of mechanical damage and short circuit, in order to solve this problem, the present invention further provides a second modified embodiment of the molded circuit board 30 on the basis of the first modified embodiment. Specifically, as shown in fig. 4B, the molding structure 32 further includes an insulating protective layer 322, wherein the insulating protective layer 322 is correspondingly disposed on the surface of the front conductive trace 3111 of the front trace layer 311 to cover the front conductive trace 3111, so as to prevent the front conductive trace 3111 from being mechanically damaged or short-circuited.
Preferably, the insulating protection layer 322 of the molding structure 32 is formed by curing an insulating molding material on the exposed surface of the front conductive line 311 through a molding process after the front molding layer 3211 is formed, so as to further cover the exposed surface of the front conductive line 311 through the insulating protection layer 322. Of course, in other examples of the present invention, the insulating protection layer 322 may also be disposed on the exposed surface of the front conductive line 311 by means of, for example, pasting, gluing, applying, and the like.
Fig. 4C shows a third modified embodiment of the molded wiring board 30 of the camera module 1 according to the above-described embodiment of the present invention. The molded wiring board 30 according to the third modified embodiment of the present invention is different from the above-described example according to the present invention in that: when the molded circuit board 30 is manufactured, the upper mold 51 of the molding mold 50 only has an upper molding surface 512 (that is, the upper mold 51 has a flat inner surface), and when the molding mold 50 is in a mold clamping state, the upper molding surface 512 of the upper mold 51 does not contact the front conductive line 311 and the bonding pad 3112 of the front circuit layer 311, so that the front molding layer 3211 formed by curing covers the surface of the substrate layer 314 of the circuit board main body 31 and the front conductive line 311 and the bonding pad 3112 of the front circuit layer 311 at the same time. Thereafter, thinning molding is performed by grinding or the like, so that the front surface molding layer 3211 forms the groove 3210 at a position corresponding to the pad 3112, so that the pad 3112 of the front surface wiring layer 311 is exposed.
For example, as shown in fig. 4C, first, after the circuit board main body 31 is placed in the upper mold 51, the upper mold 51 is operated to close the mold, so that none of the upper molding surfaces 512 of the upper mold 51 abuts on the front surface conductive traces 311 of the front surface trace layer 311 and the pads 3112, so as to form the front surface molding space 510 between the inner surface of the upper mold 51 and the front surface of the circuit board main body 31; then, injecting the insulating molding material 320 into the front molding space 510 to form the front conductive traces 311 covering the front trace layer 311 of the circuit board main body 31 and the front molding layer 3211 of the pads 3112 after curing, so as to form the molded circuit board semi-finished product; then, after the insulating molding material 320 is cured to form the front molding layer 3211, the upper mold 51 is operated to perform drawing, and the molded circuit board semi-finished product is taken out from the molding mold 50; finally, the groove 3210 is formed on the front molding layer 3211 at a position corresponding to the pad 3112 by grinding, thereby manufacturing the molded wiring board 30. Of course, in other examples of the present invention, the front surface molding layer 3211 may also be thinned by grinding, so that the front surface conductive traces 311 and the pads 3112 of the front surface trace layer 311 are exposed.
It should be noted that, since the inner surface of the upper mold 51 does not abut against the front surface conductive traces 311 and the pads 3112 of the front surface trace layer 311, the distance between the inner surface of the upper mold 51 and the front surface of the circuit board main body 31 is increased, and therefore the front surface molding space 510 is enlarged, so that the insulating molding material 320 flows more easily to fill the front surface molding space 510, which helps to complete the molding process.
Fig. 4D shows a fourth modified embodiment of the molded wiring board 30 of the camera module 1 according to the above-described embodiment of the present invention. The molded wiring board 30 according to the fourth modified embodiment of the present invention is different from the above-described example according to the present invention in that: the surface of the front conductive trace 3111 of the front circuit layer 311 of the circuit board main body 31 is lower than the surface of the pad 3112 of the front circuit layer 311, that is, the height of the front conductive trace 3111 is smaller than the height of the pad 3112, so that when the front conductive trace 3111 of the front circuit layer 311 is covered by the front molding layer 3211, the pad 3112 of the front circuit layer 311 can still be exposed.
Specifically, as shown in fig. 4D, when the molded circuit board 30 is manufactured, the front conductive traces 3111 of the front circuit layer 311 are etched by an etching process to reduce the height of the front conductive traces 3111 of the front circuit layer 311, so that the height of the front conductive traces 3111 is smaller than the height of the pads 3112; then, the front surface molding layer 3211 is formed on the front surface of the circuit board main body 31 by the molding process through the molding die 50, so that the front surface conductive trace 3111 of the front surface circuit layer 311 is covered by the front surface molding layer 3211, and the pad 3112 of the front surface circuit layer 311 can still be exposed. Of course, in other examples of the present invention, when manufacturing the molded circuit board 30, a metal may be deposited on the pads 3112 of the front circuit layer 311 by a deposition process to increase the height of the pads 3112 of the front circuit layer 311, so that the height of the pads 3112 is greater than the height of the front conductive circuit 3111; then, the front surface molding layer 3211 is formed on the front surface of the circuit board main body 31 by a molding process through a molding die, so that the front surface conductive trace 3111 of the front surface circuit layer 311 is covered by the front surface molding layer 3211, and the pad 3112 of the front surface circuit layer 311 can still be exposed.
For example, as shown in fig. 4D, first, the front surface conductive trace 3111 of the front surface circuit layer 311 of the circuit board main body 31 is etched to reduce the height of the front surface conductive trace 3111, so that the surface of the front surface conductive trace 3111 is lower than the surface of the pad 3112; next, after the etched circuit board main body 31 is placed in the upper mold 51, the upper mold 51 is operated to close the mold, so that the pressing surface 511 of the upper mold 51 is pressed on the surface of the pad 3112, and a gap is still left between the pressing surface 511 of the upper mold 51 and the surface of the front surface conductive line 3111, so as to form the front surface molding space 510 between the pressing surface 511 of the upper mold 51 and the surfaces of the substrate layer 314 and the front surface conductive line 3111 of the circuit board main body 31; then, the insulating molding material 320 is injected into the front molding space 510 to form the front molding layer 3211 that only covers the surface of the substrate layer 314 and the surface of the front conductive line 3111 after curing, thereby manufacturing the molded wiring board 30; finally, after the insulating molding material 320 is cured to form the front molding layer 3211, the upper mold 51 is operated to perform drawing, and the molded wiring board 30 is taken out from the molding mold 50.
Fig. 4E shows a fifth modified embodiment of the molded wiring board 30 of the camera module 1 according to the above-described embodiment of the present invention. The molded wiring board 30 according to the fifth modified embodiment of the present invention is different from the above-described example according to the present invention in that: by adopting the process of plate splicing, a plurality of circuit board main bodies 31 are simultaneously placed into a forming mold to mold the plurality of circuit board main bodies 31, so that a plurality of molding structures 32 are formed at one time. It should be noted that, since a plurality of the circuit board main bodies 31 are molded simultaneously to form the corresponding molded structures 32 on the plurality of the circuit board main bodies 31, this also helps to ensure that the molded circuit board 30 can provide a flat chip mounting surface while improving the manufacturing efficiency of the molded circuit board 30.
Exemplarily, as shown in fig. 4E, after two circuit board main bodies 31 combined together are placed on the corresponding upper mold 51, the upper mold 51 is operated to close the mold so that the pressing surface 511 of the upper mold 51 is pressed on the surface of the pad 3112, and the pressing head 513 of the upper mold 51 is pressed on the combined position of the circuit board main bodies 31, wherein one front molding space 510 is respectively formed between the upper molding surface 512 of the upper mold 51 and the front surface conductive trace 3111 of the front surface circuit layer 311 of each circuit board main body 31 and the surface of the substrate layer 314; then, the insulating molding material 320 is injected into each front molding space 510 to form the front molding layer 3211 that covers the front conductive line 3111 and the substrate layer 314 after curing, so as to form a molded circuit board semi-finished product; finally, after the upper mold 51 is operated to perform the drawing to take out the molded wiring board semi-finished product, the molded wiring board semi-finished product is cut along the joint of the two wiring board main bodies 31 to obtain two molded wiring boards 30. It is understood that, in this example of the present invention, since the ram 513 of the upper die 51 is directly pressed against the circuit board main body 31, at least a portion of the circuit board main body 31 of the molded circuit board 30 (e.g., at least a side portion of the circuit board main body 31) is exposed by being not covered by the front molding layer 3211, that is, at least a portion of the circuit board main body 31 of the molded circuit board 30 is exposed. Of course, in other examples of the present invention, the exposed portion of the circuit board main body 31 of the molded circuit board 30 may be covered with other insulating materials later, or the exposed portion of the circuit board main body 31 of the molded circuit board 30 may be cut directly.
It should be noted that, in the above embodiment of the present invention, as shown in fig. 2 and fig. 3B, the molding layer 321 of the molding structure 32 of the molded circuit board 30 may further include a reverse molding layer 3212 formed by curing the insulating molding material 320 on the reverse surface of the circuit board main body 31 through a molding process, wherein the reverse molding layer 3212 covers the surface of the reverse conductive line 3131 of the reverse circuit layer 313 and the surface of the substrate layer 314 located on the reverse surface of the circuit board main body 31 to protect the reverse conductive line 3131. It is understood that, in this embodiment of the invention, since the reverse side circuit layer 313 of the circuit board main body 31 only includes the reverse side conductive circuit 3131 and does not include the bonding pad, it is not necessary to consider whether the bonding pad is exposed or not in the process of forming the reverse side molding layer 3212 by molding, and the molding is directly performed by the molding die 50. Of course, in other examples of the present invention, the molding structure 32 of the molded circuit board 30 may only include the reverse molding layer 3212 or the front molding layer 3211, and an ink layer may be disposed on the surface of the circuit board main body 31 without a molding layer.
Specifically, as shown in fig. 3B, the molding die 50 further includes a lower die 52, wherein the lower die 52 can be moved to perform a clamping and pulling operation, and when the molding die 50 is in a clamped state, a reverse molding space 520 is formed between the lower die 52 and the reverse surface of the circuit board main body 31, wherein the reverse molding layer 3212 of the die set structure 32 is formed by the insulating molding material being added to the reverse molding space 520 and being cured.
More specifically, as shown in fig. 3B, the lower mold 52 of the forming mold 50 has a flat lower molding surface 521, so that when the circuit board main body 31 is placed in the lower mold 52, the lower molding surface 521 of the lower mold 52 forms the reverse molding space 520 with the reverse surface of the circuit board main body 31, so that the insulating molding material 320 forms the reverse conductive traces 3131 covering the reverse trace layer 313 and the reverse molding layer 3212 of the substrate layer 314 after being cured in the reverse molding space 520. Of course, in other examples of the invention, the reverse side molding layer 3212 may only cover the substrate layer 314 on the reverse side of the circuit board main body 31, and the reverse side conductive traces 3131 not covered by the reverse side trace layer 313, so that the reverse side conductive traces 3131 are exposed.
Illustratively, as shown in fig. 3B, after the circuit board main body 31 is placed in the lower mold 52, the lower mold 52 is operated to close the mold, so as to form the reverse molding space 520 between the lower molding surface 521 of the lower mold 52 and the reverse surface of the circuit board main body 31; then, the insulating molding material 320 is injected into the reverse molding space 520 to form the reverse molding layer 3212 which covers the reverse conductive line 3131 and the substrate layer 314 at the same time after curing; finally, after the insulating molding material 320 is cured to form the reverse molding layer 3212, the lower mold 52 is operated to perform drawing, and the molded wiring board 30 is taken out from the molding mold 50.
It is to be noted that the molding layer 321, the reverse molding layer 3212 and the obverse molding layer 3211 of the molding structure 32 may be molded together by the molding die 50 through a molding process. Alternatively, the back molding layer 3212 and the front molding layer 3211 of the molding structure 32 may be separately molded by a molding process. Of course, the reverse molding layer 3212 may be molded by the lower mold 52 of the molding mold 50 after the front molding layer 3211 is molded; the front molding layer 3211 may be molded by the lower mold 52 of the forming mold 50 before being molded, which is not further limited in the present invention.
In addition, in order to further enhance the heat dissipation capability of the molded circuit board 30, the circuit board main body 31 of the molded circuit board 30 may further include a copper-clad layer (not shown in the figure), wherein the copper-clad layer and the reverse side wiring layer 313 are arranged at intervals on the reverse side of the circuit board main body 31, so that the copper-clad layer is not in contact with the reverse side conductive wiring 3131 of the reverse side wiring layer 313, which is beneficial for enhancing the heat dissipation capability of the molded circuit board 30 through the copper-clad layer.
Further, the back molding layer 3212 may refer to a molding manner of the front molding layer 3211, such that the back molding layer 3212 only covers the back conductive traces 3131 of the back circuit layer 313, but does not cover the copper-clad layer, and the copper-clad layer is exposed to the outside, so as to improve the heat dissipation performance of the molded circuit board 30 to the maximum extent. In other words, in the process of molding the back molding layer 3212, the copper-clad layer may be exposed outside the back molding layer 3212 in the same manner as the pad 3112 is exposed outside the front molding layer 3211 in the above embodiment, and the description of the present invention is omitted here.
According to the above embodiment of the present invention, as shown in fig. 2, the molded circuit board 30 further includes a set of electronic components 33, and each of the electronic components 33 may be attached to the pad 3112 of the front circuit layer 311 of the circuit board main body 31 by a process such as smt (surface Mount technology). It should be noted that, in this embodiment of the present invention, the photosensitive chip 20 and each of the electronic components 33 may be mounted after the front molding layer 3211 of the molded circuit board 30 is formed, and the photosensitive chip 20 is mounted on the chip mounting surface of the front molding layer 3211 to correspond to the chip mounting region 3101 of the circuit board main body 31, and each of the electronic components 33 is mounted on the pad 3112 to correspond to the edge region 3102 of the circuit board main body 31. It should be understood that in the camera module of the present invention, the type of the electronic component 33 may not be limited, for example, the electronic component 33 can be implemented as a resistor, a capacitor, a driving device, or the like.
In addition, after the photosensitive chip 20 is attached to the front molding layer 3211 of the molding structure 32 of the molding board 30, the photosensitive chip 20 and the pad 3112 of the front circuit layer 311 may be electrically connected by a gold wire process to conduct the photosensitive chip 20 and the molding board 30.
It should be noted that, as shown in fig. 2, in the first embodiment of the present invention, the camera module 1 further includes a filter assembly 40, wherein the filter assembly 30 is correspondingly disposed between the optical lens 11 of the lens assembly 10 and the photosensitive chip 20, so that the light entering through the optical lens 11 is received by the photosensitive chip 20 after passing through the filter assembly 40, thereby improving the imaging quality of the camera module 1.
Specifically, the filter assembly 40 includes a filter element 41 and a base 42, wherein the filter element 41 is assembled on the base 42, and the base 42 is correspondingly disposed on the front molding layer 3211 of the molding structure 32 of the molded circuit board 30 at a position corresponding to the edge region 3102 of the circuit board main body 31, so that the filter element 41 is located between the photosensitive chip 20 and the optical lens 11, and the filter element 41 also corresponds to the photosensitive path of the photosensitive chip 20, wherein the size of the filter element 31 is larger than that of the photosensitive area of the photosensitive chip 20, so as to ensure that light entering the inside of the image pickup module 1 from the optical lens 11 is filtered by the filter element 41 and then received by the photosensitive chip 20 for photoelectric conversion, thereby improving the imaging quality of the image pickup module 1, for example, the filter element 41 may filter an infrared portion of the light entering the camera module 1 from the optical lens 11.
Preferably, the base 42 is implemented as a separately fabricated holder base 421, wherein the holder base 421 is adhered to the front molding layer 3211, so that the holder base 421 can also serve as a mirror seat for mounting the lens assembly 10 while the filter element 41 assembled to the holder base 421 is maintained in the photosensitive path of the photosensitive chip 20.
Further, as shown in fig. 2, the lens assembly 10 of the camera module 1 may further include a driver 12, wherein the optical lens 11 is drivably assembled to the driver 12, and the driver 12 is assembled to the top surface of the support base 421, so that the optical lens 11 is maintained in the photosensitive path of the photosensitive chip 20. In addition, when the camera module 1 is used, the driver 12 can drive the optical lens 11 to move back and forth along the photosensitive path of the photosensitive chip 20, so as to adjust the focal length of the camera module 1 by adjusting the distance between the optical lens 11 and the photosensitive chip 20, so that the camera module 1 is implemented as a zoom camera module. The type of the driver 12 of the camera module 1 of the present invention is not limited, and the driver 2 may be implemented as a voice coil motor, which can be electrically connected to the molded circuit board 30 to be in an operating state after receiving power and control signals to drive the optical lens 11 to move back and forth along the photosensitive path of the photosensitive chip 20. However, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that the type of the driver 12 is not limited as long as it can drive the optical lens 11 to move back and forth along the photosensitive path of the photosensitive chip 20.
It should be noted that fig. 5A shows a first variant of the camera module 1 according to the first embodiment of the invention. In particular, in contrast to the first embodiment according to the invention described above, the camera module 1 according to the first variant of the invention is implemented as a fixed-focus camera module, that is to say the lens arrangement 10 of the camera module 1 may also be free of the driver 12 in this variant of the invention. Specifically, the lens assembly 10 includes a lens barrel 12 ', wherein the lens barrel 12' is assembled to the top surface of the holder base 421, and the optical lens 11 is fixedly assembled to the lens barrel 12 ', so that the optical lens 11 is held in the photosensitive path of the photosensitive chip 20 by the lens barrel 12'. In addition, in the process of assembling the lens barrel 12 'on the top surface of the holder base 421, the angle at which the lens barrel 12' is assembled on the top surface of the holder base 421 can be adjusted by a calibration device, so that the optical axis of the optical lens 11 can be perpendicular to the light-sensing surface of the light-sensing chip 20, thereby ensuring the imaging quality of the image pickup module 1. It is understood that the barrel 12 'may be fabricated separately, such that the barrel 12' may or may not be threaded, as the present invention is not limited in this respect.
Fig. 5B shows a second variant of the camera module 1 according to the above-described first embodiment of the invention. Specifically, in contrast to the first modified embodiment of the present invention, the base 42 of the filter assembly 40 of the camera module 1 according to the second modified embodiment of the present invention is implemented as a mold base 422, wherein the mold base 422 is formed by molding material on the front molding layer 3211 of the molded circuit board 30 at a position corresponding to the edge region 3102 of the circuit board main body 31 by a molding process, and the lens barrel 12 'is assembled on the top surface of the mold base 422 to hold the optical lens 11 on the photosensitive path of the photosensitive chip 20 by the lens barrel 12'. That is, in this modified embodiment of the present invention, the molding base 422 is first fabricated by a molding process, and then the lens barrel 12 'fabricated separately is assembled on the top surface of the molding base 422, so that the angle at which the lens barrel 12' is assembled on the top surface of the molding base 422 can be adjusted by a calibration device, so that the optical axis of the optical lens 11 can be perpendicular to the photosensitive surface of the photosensitive chip 20, thereby ensuring the imaging quality of the camera module 1. Of course, in other examples of the present invention, the lens barrel 12 'may also integrally extend on the top surface of the mold base 422, that is, the lens barrel 12' and the mold base 422 may be integrally cured and formed by the molding material through a molding process, so as to enhance the stability and reliability of the camera module 1.
Preferably, in this modified embodiment of the present invention, as shown in fig. 5B, the molding base 422 covers the electronic component 33 on the molding circuit board 30 after molding, and is located around the photosensitive chip 20 attached to the molding circuit board 30, so as to isolate the adjacent electronic component 33 and isolate the electronic component 33 and the photosensitive chip 20 by the molding base 422.
Fig. 5C shows a third variant of the camera module 1 according to the above-described first embodiment of the invention. Specifically, the camera module 1 according to the third modified embodiment of the present invention is different from the above-described second modified embodiment of the present invention in that: the molding base 422 covers the non-photosensitive area of the electronic component 33 and the photosensitive chip 20 on the molding circuit board 30 after molding, so as to firmly attach the photosensitive chip 20 to the molding circuit board 30, thereby achieving compact structure and reducing the influence of dirt on the electronic component and the circuit board main body on the photosensitive chip 20.
Preferably, as shown in fig. 5C, the module base 422 has a stepped structure to provide a lower mounting surface for the filter element 41 and a higher mounting surface for the lens barrel 12', so as to reduce the distance between the filter element 41 and the photosensitive chip 20, which helps to reduce the overall height of the camera module 1. It can be understood that, since the molding base 422 is integrally formed on the molding circuit board 30 by a mold, the molding base 422 can provide a relatively flat mounting surface, so that the filter element 41 can be substantially parallel to the photosensitive chip 20 with a small inclination.
Fig. 5D shows a fourth variant of the camera module 1 according to the above-described first embodiment of the invention. Specifically, compared to the first embodiment of the present invention, the camera module 1 according to the fourth modified embodiment of the present invention is implemented as a periscopic camera module, that is, the camera module 1 further includes a light steering mechanism 13, wherein the light steering mechanism 13 is disposed in the photosensitive path of the photosensitive chip 20, and is used for steering the light entering the light steering mechanism 13, so that the light steered by the light steering mechanism 13 is received by the photosensitive chip 20 after passing through the optical lens 11. It can be understood that, since the periscopic camera module can be mounted to various electronic device bodies in a "lying" mounting manner, the height of the periscopic array module can be reduced, and therefore, after the periscopic array module is mounted to the electronic device body, the thickness of the electronic device body is not increased, and the trend of light and thin development of the electronic device is met.
Referring to fig. 6 and 7 of the drawings, a camera module 1A according to a second embodiment of the present invention is illustrated. The second embodiment according to the present invention differs from the above-described first embodiment according to the present invention in that: the mold structure 32A of the mold substrate 30A of the camera module 1A further includes a mold package 323A, wherein the mold package 323A integrally extends from the front mold layer 3211 to replace the base of the optical filter assembly 40, so that the optical filter 41 and the lens assembly 10 can be directly assembled to the mold package 323A of the mold substrate 30A, so as to maintain the optical filter 41 and the optical lens 11 of the lens assembly 10 in the photosensitive path of the photosensitive chip 20. Preferably, the molded package 323A covers the electronic component 33 of the molded circuit board 30A, so that the molded package 323A isolates the adjacent electronic component 33 and isolates the electronic component 33 from the photosensitive chip 20, thereby reducing contamination of the photosensitive chip 20 caused by contamination carried on the electronic component 33.
Further, as shown in fig. 7, the molded package 323A of the molded structure 32A and the front molding layer 3211 are formed by curing the insulating molding material 320 on the front surface of the circuit board main body 31 through a molding process, so that the electronic component 33 of the molded circuit board 30A is covered by the molded package 323A, and the front molding layer 3211 covers the surface of the front conductive trace 3111 of the front circuit layer 311 and the surface of the substrate layer 314 on the front surface of the circuit board main body 31, so that the surface of the pad 3112 of the front circuit layer 311 is exposed.
In other words, when manufacturing the molded circuit board 30A, the electronic component 33 may be first attached to the pad 3112 of the front surface circuit layer 311 of the circuit board main body 31 by soldering; then, the circuit board main body 31 is placed into a molding mold 50A for molding, so that the insulating molding material 320 is cured on the front surface of the circuit board main body 31 to form the front surface molding layer 3211 of the molding structure 32A and the molding package 323A, wherein the front surface molding layer 3211 covers the surface of the front surface conductive circuit 3111 of the front surface circuit layer 311 and the surface of the substrate layer 314 located on the front surface of the circuit board main body 31, and exposes a portion of the pad 3112 to the outside for power connection to the photosensitive chip 20. It should be noted that, since the molded package 323A and the front molding layer 3211 are integrally formed by the forming mold 50A, the mounting surface provided by the molded package 323A can maintain a good parallelism with the chip mounting surface provided by the front molding layer 3211, which not only helps to ensure that the photosensitive chip 20 and the filter element 41 are parallel to each other, but also helps to ensure that the optical axis of the optical lens 11 is perpendicular to the photosensitive surface of the photosensitive chip 20.
Specifically, as shown in fig. 7, the molding die 50A includes an upper die 51A, wherein the upper die 51A can be moved to perform a clamping and pulling operation, and when the molding die 50A is in a clamped state, a front molding space 510A is formed between the upper die 51A and the front surface of the circuit board main body 31, wherein the front molding layer 3211 and the molded package 323A of the module structure 32A are added to the front molding space 510A by the insulating molding material 320 and formed after curing.
More specifically, as shown in fig. 7, the upper mold 51A of the molding mold 50A has a press-fit surface 511A, a first upper molding surface 512A, and a second upper molding surface 513A, wherein the press-fit surface 511A of the upper mold 51A corresponds to the pads 3112 of the front surface wiring layer 311 of the wiring board main body 31, the second upper molding surface 513A of the upper mold 51A is located around the first upper molding surface 512A of the upper mold 51A, and the second upper molding surface 513A of the upper mold 51A corresponds to the electronic component 33. The press-fitting surface 511A of the upper mold 51A is lower than the first upper molding surface 512A of the upper mold 51A, and the first upper molding surface 512A of the upper mold 51A is lower than the second upper molding surface 513A of the upper mold 51A (i.e., the upper mold 51A has a stepped inner surface), so that when the press-fitting surface 511A of the upper mold 51A is press-fitted to the corresponding pad 3112, a gap is still left between the first upper molding surface 512A of the upper mold 51A and the front surface conduction line 3111, and a gap is left between the second upper molding surface 513A of the upper mold 51A and the top surface 3113113113112 of the electronic component 33, to ensure that the insulating molding material 320 can enter the gap between the first upper molding surface 512A and the front surface conduction line 1 and the gap between the second upper molding surface 513A and the electronic component 33, the front surface molding layer 3211 formed by curing can cover the front surface conductive line 3111, and the molded package 323A formed by curing can cover the electronic component 33 to protect the front surface conductive line 3111 and the electronic component 33.
For example, as shown in fig. 7, the electronic component 33 is first attached to the pad 3112 on the front circuit layer 311 of the circuit board main body 31; after the circuit board main body 31 is placed in the upper mold 51A, the upper mold 51A is operated to close the mold, so that the pressing surface 511A of the upper mold 51A is pressed on the surface of the pad 3112 remaining on the front surface circuit layer 311, and the front surface molding space 510A is formed between the first and second upper molding surfaces 512A, 513A of the upper mold 51A and the front surface conductive circuit 3111 of the front surface circuit layer 311, the substrate layer 314, and the surface of the electronic component 33; then, the insulating molding material 320 is injected into the front molding space 510A to form the front molding layer 3211 that covers the front conductive line 3111A and the substrate layer 314A at the same time and the molding package 323A that covers the electronic component 33 after curing, thereby manufacturing the molding wiring board 30A; finally, after the insulating molding material 320 is cured to form the front molding layer 3211 and the molded package 323A, the upper mold 51A is operated to perform a drawing, and the molded wiring board 30A is taken out from the molding mold 50A. Of course, in this example of the present invention, the image pickup module 1A can also be assembled by molding the reverse molding layer 3212 on the reverse surface of the circuit board main body 31, and then sequentially mounting the photosensitive chip 20, the filter element 41, and the lens assembly 10 on the molded circuit board 30A.
It is to be noted that, in the above embodiment of the present invention, the front molding layer 3211 of the molding structure 32A covers the chip mounting region 3101 and the edge region 3102 of the circuit board main body 31, so that the photosensitive chip 20 is mounted on the front molding layer 3211 of the molding structure 32A of the molded circuit board 30A, so as to reduce the adverse effect of the circuit board main body 31 on the mounting accuracy of the photosensitive chip 20 by the front molding layer 3211. Of course, in other examples of the present invention, the photosensitive chip 20 may be directly attached to the chip attaching region 3101 of the circuit board main body 31 by an adhesive.
Fig. 8A shows, by way of example, a first variant of the camera module 1A according to the above-described second embodiment of the invention, in particular the camera module 1A according to the first variant of the invention differs from the above-described second embodiment of the invention in that: the photosensitive chip 20 is directly attached to the chip attaching region 3101 of the wiring board main body 31 of the molded wiring board 30A by an adhesive 60; the front molding layer 3211A of the molding layer 321A of the molding structure 32A covers only the front conductive traces 3111 of the front circuit layer 311 and the substrate layer 314 at the edge region 3102 of the circuit board main body 31, so that the front conductive traces 3111 of the front circuit layer 311 at the chip mounting region 3101 of the circuit board main body 31 are exposed due to being uncovered. Thus, when the photosensitive chip 20 is mounted by the adhesive 60, the adhesive 60 can enter the notch of the front circuit layer 311, which is beneficial to increasing the contact area between the adhesive 60 and the molding circuit board 30A, and further enhancing the mounting strength of the photosensitive chip 20. In addition, in this modified embodiment of the present invention, the molded package 323A of the molded structure 32A covers only the electronic component 33, so as to prevent interference between adjacent electronic components 33.
It should be noted that, as shown in fig. 8A, since the photosensitive chip 20 is directly mounted on the chip mounting region 3101 of the circuit board main body 31, and the front molding layer 3211A of the molding structure 32A only covers the edge region 3102 of the circuit board main body 31, the invention can mold the molding structure 32A on the circuit board main body 31 by a molding process, and then mount the photosensitive chip 20 on the chip mounting region 3101 of the circuit board main body 31; alternatively, the photosensitive chip 20 may be attached to the chip attaching region 3101 of the circuit board main body 31, and the molding structure 32A may be molded on the circuit board main body 31 by a molding process, which is not limited in the present invention.
Fig. 8B shows a second variant of the camera module 1A according to the above-mentioned second embodiment of the invention, in particular the camera module 1A according to the second variant of the invention differs from the first variant of the above-mentioned second embodiment of the invention in that: the molding package 323A of the molding structure 32A simultaneously covers the electronic component 33 and the non-photosensitive region of the photosensitive chip 20, so as to further enhance the bonding strength between the photosensitive chip 20 and the molding circuit board 32A, and also help to prevent the photosensitive chip 20 from being contaminated by dirt existing on the circuit board main body 31. It should be noted that, since the molding package 323A of the molding structure 32A covers the non-photosensitive region of the photosensitive chip 20, before the molding structure 32A is molded on the circuit board main body 31 by a molding process, the photosensitive chip 20 needs to be attached to the chip mounting region 3101 of the circuit board main body 31 by the adhesive 60, and the photosensitive chip 20 needs to be electrically connected to the circuit board main body 31.
It should be noted that, in the second embodiment and its modified embodiments of the present invention, except for the above-mentioned structure, other structures of the camera module 1A are the same as those of the camera module 1 according to the first embodiment of the present invention, and the camera module 1A also has modified embodiments similar to or the same as those of the camera module 1 according to the first embodiment, and will not be described again here.

It is to be noted that the inner surface of the upper mold 51 of the forming mold 50 can be designed as required to mold the front molding layer 3211 as required.

Of course, the upper mold 51 may also have a flat inner surface, and at this time, the front surface conductive trace 3111 covering the front surface trace layer 311 and the front surface molding layer 3211 of the pad 3112 may be molded first, and then the pad 3112 is exposed by grinding; alternatively, the front circuit layer 311 of the circuit board main body 31 may be pretreated so that the surface of the front conductive circuit 3111 of the front circuit layer 311 is lower than the surface of the pad 3112.
