Description

Camera shooting module

Technical Field

The invention relates to the technical field of camera modules, in particular to a camera module with improved structure, position and assembly mode of a circuit board.

Background

The mobile phone camera module is one of important components of intelligent equipment, and the application range and the application amount of the mobile phone camera module in the market are continuously increased. Along with the progress of technique, no matter work or life are all advocating intellectuality, and realize that one of the intelligent important prerequisite can realize the good interaction with external environment, and wherein realize that an important mode of good interaction is the visual perception, and the module of making a video recording is mainly relied on to the visual perception. It can be said that the camera module has been transformed from a silent intelligent equipment accessory to one of the key components that intelligent equipment is very light.

With the requirement of the imaging quality of the mobile phone camera module on higher and higher quality, the volume and the weight of the lens are larger and higher, and the requirement on the driving force of the motor (namely, the optical actuator) is also higher and higher. However, the current electronic devices (such as mobile phones) also have a great limitation on the size of the camera module, and the occupied size of the motor increases correspondingly with the increase of the lens. In other words, in the trend of the lens barrel toward larger volume and larger weight, the driving force provided by the motor is difficult to increase accordingly. On the premise that the driving force is limited, the heavier the lens is, the shorter the stroke of the motor capable of driving the lens to move is, and the anti-shake capability is affected. On the other hand, the heavier the lens, the slower the motor can drive the lens to move, and the longer the lens reaches the predetermined compensation position, which also affects the anti-shake effect.

In order to overcome the above-mentioned drawbacks, the applicant proposes a dual OIS motor, which has two parts, one of which is used for driving the optical lens to move, and the other of which is used for driving the photosensitive chip to move, and simultaneously drives the optical lens and the photosensitive chip to move, so as to achieve a better anti-shake effect. However, in the conventional solution, the photosensitive chip is attached to the circuit board, and the connecting band on the circuit board causes a large resistance to the movement of the photosensitive chip. Specifically, in the conventional solution, the circuit board is usually a rigid-flex board, wherein the rigid board is a main body of the circuit board, the flexible board is led out from a side surface of the main body to form a connection belt, and a connector can be disposed at an end (i.e. a free end) of the connection belt for plugging with a main board of a mobile phone. For example, the connector at the tail end of the connecting band can be pin array-shaped, the corresponding socket-shaped connector is arranged on the mobile phone mainboard, and the circuit board of the camera module is electrically connected with the mobile phone mainboard through the insertion of the pins and the socket. One end of the connecting band of the traditional circuit board is fixed on the main board of the mobile phone, when the photosensitive chip moves, the main body of the circuit board moves along with the photosensitive chip, and the connecting band on the side surface of the main body of the circuit board is pulled by the connector end of the main body of the circuit board, so that larger resistance is formed. In the anti-shake movement, the resistance of the connecting belt will cause the optical actuator to need to provide a larger driving force, which is not favorable for the miniaturization of the camera module. On the other hand, the resistance of the connection belt is irregular, and may also cause a decrease in the accuracy of the anti-shake movement. Moreover, the dual OIS motor has a more complex motor structure, resulting in an increased wiring area required for the circuit board, which would result in an increased height of the camera module if the conventional scheme of stacking more PCB layers were used to increase the wiring area.

Further, the applicant proposes a solution of leading out side connection strips on two symmetrical side surfaces of the circuit board main body respectively to overcome the above-mentioned drawbacks. The surfaces of the two side connecting belts are approximately vertical to the surface of the circuit board main body, the side connecting belts and the circuit board main body form a bending part through a soft board which is bent upwards, and the side connecting belts can be hung on the fixing part of the optical actuator. The new circuit board design scheme can reduce the resistance of the connecting belt for connecting the mobile phone mainboard to the movement of the circuit board main body. However, the new circuit board structure still has many problems of low yield, insufficient production efficiency, etc. during actual assembly. Therefore, it is necessary to further optimize the structure of the circuit board so as to improve the yield and production efficiency of the camera module while reducing the resistance of the connecting belt. For example, the circuit board structure can be designed to be more suitable for automatic production, so that the production efficiency can be improved through automatic production. For example, the main reasons influencing the yield of the camera module are analyzed and searched to improve the camera module and the shape of the circuit board structure of the camera module, so that the yield of the camera module finished product is improved finally.

Further, the height direction of the camera module is generally the thickness direction of the electronic device such as a mobile phone, and therefore the height of the camera module directly affects the thickness of the mobile phone or other electronic devices on which the camera module is mounted. For the dual-OIS function camera module, since the optical actuator needs to dispose the chip anti-shake section and the lens anti-shake section at the same time, a large space may be occupied in the height direction. Therefore, a solution capable of reducing the height of the camera module is urgently needed at present.

The first connecting band hard plate 3122 and the second connecting band hard plate 3132 are electrically connected by the above welding method, and compared with the conventional method of connecting by a connector, a connector pressing process can be avoided, so that the driving assembly is prevented from being pressed, and the generation of bad driving assemblies is reduced.

In particular, fig. 12 a-12 b show schematic structural diagrams of the first connection belt hard plate 3122 and the second connection belt hard plate 3132 being welded through an electrical connection medium 31322.

As shown in fig. 12a, the connection band pad 31321 is located between the second connection band hard plate 3132 and the first connection band hard plate 3122, the first conductive through hole 31221 of the first connection band hard plate 3122 has a ring-shaped conductive side 312211 therein, and the conductive side 312211 of the first conductive through hole 31221 is fixed and electrically connected to the connection band pad 31321 through the electrical connection medium 31322, thereby achieving electrical conduction between the first connection band hard plate 3122 and the second connection band hard plate 3132, wherein the ring-shaped conductive side 312211 may be implemented by a metal plating layer disposed in the first conductive through hole 31221.

Fig. 12b to 12c show another structure of the first conductive via 31221, in which the first conductive via 31221 is composed of a conductive side 312211 and an insulating side 312212, in other words, a metal plating layer provided in the first conductive via 31221 is distributed only on a part of the side of the first conductive via 31221 (as shown in fig. 12c, the conductive side 312211 and the insulating side 312212 are located at both sides, respectively, viewed perpendicularly to the first wiring board 31), and further, the electrical connection medium 31322 may be biased toward the conductive side 312211 during soldering, and the electrical connection medium 31322 is in contact with, fixed, and electrically connected only to the conductive side 312211 of the first conductive via 31221, so that a connection contact condition of the electrical connection medium 31322 to the connection land pad 31321 may be observed from the insulating side 312212 to the conductive side 312211 of the first conductive via 31221, and a problem of a cold solder joint may be observed to reduce defects of the camera module. Preferably, in one first conductive through hole 31221, a ratio of an area occupied by the conductive side 312211 to an area occupied by the insulating side 312212 is 0.8 to 1.25, for example, the area occupied by the conductive side 312211 and the area occupied by the insulating side 312212 are equal, so that it is possible to secure an electrical connection between the first connecting belt hard sheet 3122 and the second connecting belt hard sheet 3132 and to facilitate observation of a problem of cold joint.

Further, in order to facilitate the observation of the soldering condition between the plurality of first conductive through holes 31221 and the connection land pad 31321, it is preferable that the conductive sides 312211 of the plurality of first conductive through holes 31221 of the present application are located on the same side and the insulating sides 312212 of the plurality of first conductive through holes 31221 are located on the other side, for example, the insulating sides 312212 of the plurality of first conductive through holes 31221 are located on the upper side (i.e., the side away from the circuit board main body 311), thereby facilitating the observation of the soldering condition from the upper side of the camera module. Of course, the insulating sides 312212 of the first conductive vias 31221 may be located on the lower side, the left side, or the right side of the camera module, or may be located between the left side and the upper side, so that the welding condition can be visually observed.

In the soldering process, the electrical connection medium 31322, for example, tin, needs to be heated to a melting point to react with the contact tape pad 31321 and the first conductive via 31221, and if the temperature is insufficient, the conductive connection medium 31322 may not react with the contact tape pad 31321 and the first conductive via 31221, thereby forming a problem of cold solder. When the electrical connection medium 31322 is sprayed between the connection tape pad 31321 and the first conductive via 31221 by a laser welding process, an excessively long distance between the connection tape pad 31321 and the first conductive via 31221 may cause the electrical connection medium 31322 to cool, and thus, it is preferable that a gap between the connection tape pad 31321 and the first conductive via 31221 is less than 100 μm and a gap between the first connection tape hard plate 3122 and the second connection tape hard plate 3132 is less than 100 μm.

In order to reduce the above-mentioned cold joint problem, it is further possible to ensure that the reaction between the electrical connection medium 31322 and the connection land 31321 and the reaction between the electrical connection medium 31322 and the first conductive via 31221 can occur by secondary heating, so as to combine them, thereby avoiding the cold joint problem.

Alternatively, the cold joint problem can be reduced by pre-tinning. The preliminary soldering is to directly dispose solder (or other electrical connection medium) on the land 31321, react and bond the solder and the land, and then dispose the melted solder between the land 31321 and the first conductive via 31221 through the first conductive via 31221, thereby achieving electrical conduction. The material of the connection land 31321 is usually different from that of the electrical connection medium 31322, and when soldering, the connection land 31321 and the electrical connection medium 31322 need to react at a contact surface to ensure stable bonding, and the reaction process has a high temperature requirement, and in the present application, a layer of tin is disposed on the surface of the connection land 31321 by way of pre-tinning, so that in a subsequent soldering process, the tin is easily bonded with the tin on the surface of the connection land 31321, and the distance between the surface of the connection land 31321 and the first conductive through hole 31221 is also reduced, and the temperature of the tin can be kept at a high temperature when the tin is disposed on the surface of the connection land 31321, so that a good soldering effect is achieved, and the requirement for a soldering process can be reduced, preferably, the thickness of the tin is between 10 μm and 50 μm, so as to keep a good soldering effect.

Further, in the present application, the electrical connection between the driving component 20 and the circuit board 31 can also be realized by the above-mentioned first conductive through hole-pad soldering. As shown in fig. 4-5 and 10-11, the second connecting strap hard plate 3132 has a recess, so that when the second connecting strap hard plate 3132 is bent and hung on the first hanging portion 22011 and the second hanging portion 22012, the second connecting strap hard plate 3132 avoids the lens driving electrical connection portion 2203 of the driving assembly 20, and the lens driving electrical connection portion 2203 is exposed, so as to be suitable for being electrically connected with the first connecting strap hard plate 3122. Specifically, a plurality of lens driving pads 22031 on the lens driving electrical connection portion 2203 correspond to a plurality of second conductive vias 31222 on the first connecting belt hard plate 3122 and are electrically connected through an electrical connection medium 31322.

The lens driving electrical connection portion 2203 has two rows of the lens driving pads 22031 arranged thereon to reduce the length of the lens driving electrical connection portion 2203, for example, the number of the lens driving pads 22031 on the upper portion is 4, and the number of the lens driving pads 22031 on the lower portion is also 4. Further, in order to reduce the size of the lens driving electrical connection portion 2203 in the Z-axis direction, the upper and lower rows of lens driving pads 22031 are distributed in a staggered manner, and in order to improve the utilization rate of the area of the lens driving electrical connection portion 2203, the lens driving pads 22031 are shaped into a shape with one side having a large size and the other side having a small size, that is, a "gourd" shaped pad, and the size of the side of the lens driving pads 22031 close to the edge of the lens driving electrical connection portion 2203 is relatively larger.

The lens driving electrical connection portion 2203 is a rigid-flex board, a flexible board portion of the lens driving electrical connection portion 2203 is electrically connected to a driving element of the lens driving portion 22 and a hard board portion of the lens driving electrical connection portion 2203, the plurality of lens driving pads 22031 are located on the hard board portion of the lens driving electrical connection portion 2203, and the hard board portion of the lens driving electrical connection portion 2203 is fixed on a side surface of the lens driving fixing portion 2201 of the lens driving portion 22, so as to maintain the stability of the lens driving electrical connection portion 2203 electrically connected with an external power supply. Further, the outer surface of the lens driving pad 22031 is lower than the outer surface of the hard board portion of the lens driving electrical connection portion 2203, so as to provide protection for the lens driving pad 22031 and prevent the lens driving pad 22031 from being scratched and affecting the yield of electrical connection.

In one embodiment of the present application, the plurality of second conductive through holes 31222 on the first connection belt hard sheet 3122 are also composed of a conductive side 312211 and an insulating side 312212, thereby facilitating observation of the bonding condition between the second conductive through holes 31222 and the lens driving pads 22031. Preferably, the conductive sides 312211 of the second conductive through holes 31222 are located on the same side, and the insulating sides 312212 of the second conductive through holes are located on the other side, for example, the conductive sides 312211 of the second conductive through holes 31222 are located on the lower side (i.e., the side close to the circuit board main body 311), so as to facilitate the view of the soldering condition from the upper side of the camera module. Of course, the conductive sides 312211 of the second conductive through holes 31222 may be located on the upper side, the left side, or the right side of the camera module, or may be located between the right side and the lower side, and the welding condition can be visually observed.

In order to improve the bonding yield between the second conductive via 31222 and the lens driving pad 22031 and reduce the risk of cold joint, the gap between the second conductive via 31222 and the lens driving pad 22031 is preferably less than 100 μm, i.e., the gap between the first connecting strap hard board 3122 and the lens driving connection is less than 100 μm. Moreover, the second conductive via 31222 and the lens driving pad 22031 may be soldered by a secondary heating or pre-tinning method, and when the pre-tinning method is used, the thickness of the solder is set to be 10-50 μm, so as to maintain a good soldering effect.

That is, the structure of the conductive via-pad bonding in the present application can also be applied to the electrical connection between the driving component 20 and the circuit board 31. The driving assembly 20 includes a driving electrical connection portion (e.g., a lens driving electrical connection portion 2203) located on a side of the driving assembly 20, and a plurality of pads (e.g., lens driving pads 22031) on the driving electrical connection portion correspond to a plurality of conductive vias on a hard board portion (e.g., the first connecting strip hard board 3122) of the circuit board and are electrically connected through an electrical connection medium disposed in the conductive vias.

The structure of electrically conductive through-hole-pad welded in this application can be in the electric connection portion of the module of making a video recording is set up and is used when the side of the module of making a video recording to avoid making a video recording the module and receive pressure when the electric conductance leads to, cause the bad of the module of making a video recording. The electrical connection portion is disposed on a side surface of the camera module, the electrical connection portion of the driving component 20 may be disposed on a side surface, and the electrical connection portion of the photosensitive component 30 may be disposed on a side surface, and the electrical connection portion is soldered to the electrical connection portion through a circuit board 31 having a conductive through hole, so as to electrically connect the driving component 20 or the photosensitive component 30 to the mobile electronic device.

Further, in order to maintain the bent shape of the circuit board 31, particularly the bending of the first bending portion 31211 and the fourth bending portion 31311, the reinforcing plate 37 may be bent to maintain the bending of the first soft connection tape plate 3121 at the first bending portion 31211 and to maintain the bending of the second soft connection tape plate 3131 at the fourth bending portion 31311.

Specifically, fig. 13 to 15 show schematic diagrams of the reinforcing plate 37 attached to the bottom surface of the circuit board main body 311, the reinforcing plate 37 includes a reinforcing plate main body 371, a first reinforcing plate side portion 372 and a second reinforcing plate side portion 373, and the reinforcing plate main body 371, the first reinforcing plate side portion 372 and the second reinforcing plate side portion 373 may be integrally formed. The first stiffener lateral portion 372 further includes a first stiffener bent portion 3721, the second stiffener lateral portion 373 further includes a second stiffener bent portion 3731, the stiffener passes through the stiffener main body 371 is attached to be fixed on the bottom surface of the circuit board main body 311, so the stiffener main body 371 and the circuit board main body 311 with the circuit board through hole 3111 form a groove for accommodating the photosensitive chip 32, the first stiffener lateral portion 372 passes through the first stiffener bent portion 3721 and is fixedly connected to one side of the stiffener main body 371 (with the first connecting strip soft plate 3121 is located on the same side, i.e. the first side 301), the second stiffener lateral portion 373 passes through the second stiffener bent portion 3731 and is fixedly connected to the other side of the stiffener main body 371 with the first stiffener lateral portion 372 (with the second connecting strip soft plate 3131 is located on the same side, i.e. the second side 302). Preferably, the material of the reinforcing plate 37 is a metal material suitable for bending, such as stainless steel or copper.

By the bending of the first reinforcing plate bent portion 3721, the first reinforcing plate side portion 372 is bent along the first side surface 301 of the reinforcing plate main body 371 and extends upward, and by the bending of the second reinforcing plate bent portion 3731, the second reinforcing plate side portion 373 is bent along the second side surface 302 of the reinforcing plate main body 371 and extends upward. The first reinforcing plate side portion 372 and the second reinforcing plate side portion 373 are not easily changed in shape after being bent, and therefore, the first reinforcing plate side portion 372 and the second reinforcing plate side portion 373 are adapted to maintain the bending of the first bent portion 31211 and the fourth bent portion 31311, and maintain the shapes of the first connecting tape soft sheet 3121 and the second connecting tape soft sheet 3131 after being bent, so that it is possible to reduce the resistance of the first connecting tape 312 and the second connecting tape 313 when the driving unit 20 drives the circuit board main body 311 to move.

The width of the first reinforcing plate bent portion 3721 is smaller than the width of the first reinforcing plate side portion 372, so that the difficulty of bending the first reinforcing plate bent portion 3721 is reduced, and further, the first reinforcing plate bent portion 3721 further has a through hole, so that the resistance of bending the first reinforcing plate bent portion 3721 is further reduced. The width of the second reinforcing plate bent portion 3731 is smaller than the width of the second reinforcing plate side portion 373, so that the difficulty of bending the second reinforcing plate bent portion 3731 is reduced, and further, the second reinforcing plate bent portion 3731 further has a through hole, so that the resistance of bending the second reinforcing plate bent portion 3731 is further reduced.

Referring to fig. 16-17, in an embodiment of the present application, the chip anti-shake electrical connection portion 2114 of the chip anti-shake portion 211 is electrically connected to the circuit board main body 311 by means of pin soldering.

Specifically, in the assembly of the camera module 1, the optical lens 10 is assembled to the driving assembly 20, and the driving assembly 20 is fixed to the circuit board main body 311 and electrically connected to the circuit board main body 311, so as to reduce the height of the camera module. The driving component 20 is fixed to the circuit board main body 311 by an HA process or an AA process, where the HA process is to bond and fix the driving component 20 and the circuit board 31 directly by an adhesive medium after adjusting the parallelism, and usually requires a gap between the driving component 20 and the circuit board main body 311 to be reserved by about 0.03mm; the AA process is an active calibration process, which includes assembling an optical lens 10 to the driving assembly 20 to form a semi-finished product of a camera module, adjusting a positional relationship between the semi-finished product of the camera module and the main body 311 of the circuit board according to an imaging quality of an image formed by receiving light of the semi-finished product of the camera module by the photosensitive assembly 30, and then bonding and fixing the semi-finished product of the camera module and the main body 311 of the circuit board by a bonding medium, which generally requires a gap of about 0.16mm to be reserved in a gap between the driving assembly 20 and the main body 311 of the circuit board. Therefore, in order to reduce the height of the camera module, the gap between the driving unit 20 and the circuit board main body 311 is low when the driving unit 20 and the circuit board main body 311 are bonded and fixed, regardless of the HA process or the AA process.

In this application, the chip anti-shake electrical connection portion 2114 includes a plurality of pins 21141, the pins 21141 include a transverse portion 211411 fixedly connected to the chip anti-shake fixing portion 2111 and an upright portion 211412 integrally formed with the transverse portion 211411 and perpendicular (approximately perpendicular) to the transverse portion 211411, the upright portion 211412 of the pin 21141 determines the height of the pin 21141, and the common pin size is 0.5mm, which is far beyond the gap between the driving component 20 and the circuit board main body 311. In the conventional camera module, the pins are usually soldered on the circuit board 31, and a gap of 0.2mm is reserved between the pins and the circuit board 31, which will increase the gap between the driving component 20 and the circuit board main body 311 for the present application, so that the height of the camera module is increased, which is not in accordance with the requirement of reducing the height of the camera module.

Therefore, in the present application, the wiring board main body 311 has a plurality of side recesses 3112, the plurality of side recesses 3112 are located at positions corresponding to the plurality of pins 21141 of the chip anti-shake connection portion on one side of the wiring board main body 311, the pins 21141 pass through the wiring board main body 311 through the side recesses 3112, and the pins 21141 and the side recesses 3112 are electrically connected by laying out an electrical connection medium. Specifically, the surface of the side recess 3112 is provided with a metal plating layer so as to be fixed by welding to the electrical connection medium and electrically conducted. With the structure, the gap between the driving component 20 and the circuit board main body 311 is not limited by the size of the pins 21141 and the welding process, so that the height of the camera module is reduced.

Fig. 17 is a schematic diagram illustrating a relative position relationship between the pin 21141 and the circuit board main body 311 according to an embodiment of the present application. The vertical portion 211412 of the pin 21141 preferably protrudes from the bottom surface of the circuit board main body 311 (i.e., the back surface of the circuit board main body 311), i.e., the bottom surface of the vertical portion 211412 of the pin 21141 is lower than the bottom surface of the circuit board main body 311, so that the electrical connection medium can have a larger contact area with the side surface of the pin 21141, thereby improving the yield of soldering and ensuring the electrical connection effect. When a reinforcing plate is further attached to the bottom surface of the wiring board main body 311, it is preferable that the reinforcing plate 37 is not attached to the bottom surface of the side recess 3112, and the bottom surface of the upright portion 211412 of the pin 21141 does not protrude from the bottom surface of the reinforcing plate 37, that is, it is preferable that the bottom surface of the upright portion 211412 of the pin 21141 is between the bottom surface of the wiring board main body 311 and the bottom surface of the reinforcing plate 37, so that the reinforcing plate 37 can protect the pin 21141 and reduce the risk of short-circuiting and the like due to contact between the pin 21141 and other components. It should be noted that in other embodiments of the present application, the bottom surface of the vertical portion 211412 of the pin 21141 may also protrude from the bottom surface of the reinforcing plate 37, or the bottom surface of the vertical portion 211412 of the pin 21141 may not protrude from the bottom surface of the circuit board main body 311, that is, the bottom surface of the vertical portion 211412 of the pin 21141 may also be higher than the bottom surface of the circuit board main body 311 and located between the upper surface and the bottom surface of the circuit board main body 311.

Further, the angle between the vertical portion 211412 and the lateral portion 211411 is between 80 ° and 100 °, and when the vertical portion 211412 is perpendicular to the lateral portion 211411, the angle between the vertical portion 211412 and the lateral portion 211411 is 90 °. In a preferred embodiment of the present application, the vertical portion 211412 has an inclination angle greater than 0 ° and less than 10 ° with respect to a perpendicular line of the lateral portion 211411, so that the vertical portion 211412 can have a longer length at the same height, thereby reducing the difficulty of the pin manufacturing process.

The frame bottom plate 43 is fixed to the bottom surface of the frame body 41 to protect the photosensitive assembly 30, and a gap exists between the frame bottom plate 43 and the bottom surface of the photosensitive assembly 30, so that the frame bottom plate 43 does not interfere with the movement of the photosensitive assembly 30 when the photosensitive assembly 30 is driven by the chip anti-shake portion 211 of the driving assembly 20. Further, the frame bottom plate 43 may further have a through hole, and the through hole of the frame bottom plate 43 corresponds to the chip anti-shake electrical connection portion 2114 of the chip anti-shake portion 211 of the driving assembly 20, so as to provide a larger space for the pin 21141, avoid contact between the pin 21141 and the frame bottom plate 43, and reduce risks such as mutual interference and short circuit.

The frame cover 42 is fixed to the top surface of the frame body 41, so as to enclose the driving assembly 20 with the frame body 41, and reduce the risk of dirt such as dust falling between the driving assembly 20 and the frame body 41. The frame cover 42 has a through hole, and the through hole of the frame cover 42 is suitable for providing the incident light to the optical lens 10, and the optical lens 10 can pass through the through hole, so that the optical lens 10 protrudes from the frame cover 42.

The conductive cloth 44 can cover the through holes of the frame bottom plate 43, so that dirt such as dust can not enter the camera module. The conductive cloth 44 may further include a conductive cloth side portion 441, the conductive cloth 44 is further attached to a side surface of the frame main body 41 through the conductive cloth side portion 441, and when the frame main body 41 is made of metal such as aluminum and stainless steel, the conductive cloth 44 may be electrically conducted with the frame main body 41, and effects of conductivity, electromagnetic shielding, and the like may be achieved. The conductive cloth 44 may include one or more conductive cloth sides 441, in a specific example of the present application, the number of the conductive cloth sides 441 is 4, and the conductive cloth sides are respectively distributed on four sides of the frame body 41.

Further, as shown in fig. 18, the outer frame 40 further includes an insulating sheet 45, and the insulating sheet 45 is disposed between the first connection band hard plate 3122 and the frame main body 41. When the frame body 41 is made of a conductive material, there is a risk that the frame body 41 and the first hard board are in contact with each other to cause a short circuit therebetween, and therefore, the insulating sheet 45 is disposed between the first connecting band hard board 3122 and the frame body 41 to reduce the risk. Specifically, the insulating sheet 45 may be adhesively fixed to the inside of the frame body 41, may be adhesively fixed to the outside of the first connection belt hard plate 3122, or the insulating sheet 45 may be placed only between the first connection belt hard plate 3122 and the frame body 41.

In the present application, the main body portions of the first connecting tape and the second connecting tape are both disposed on the periphery side of the optical element of the imaging module, and therefore may be referred to as side connecting tapes. In the side connection tape, a portion bent upward from the side of the circuit board main body may be referred to as a bent portion (or referred to as an upward bent portion, and the bent portion may be referred to as a portion of the side connection tape). The portion arranged on the peripheral side of the camera module optical element may be referred to as a side connection band body. The surface of the side connection band body may be substantially perpendicular to the surface of the circuit board body. In some embodiments, the side connection strap and the circuit board main body may be integrally formed, for example, the side connection strap and the circuit board main body may be integrally formed by a manufacturing process of a rigid-flex board. The main body of the circuit board may be a hard board (e.g., a PCB), the bent portion of the side connection band may be a soft board (e.g., an FPC), and the main body of the side connection band may include a portion of the soft board and a portion of the hard board.
