A method of manufacturing an image sensing apparatus includes: forming a first substrate structure including a first region of a pixel region, the first substrate structure having a first surface and a second surface; forming a second substrate structure including a circuit region for driving the pixel region, the second substrate structure having a third surface and a fourth surface; bonding the first substrate structure to the second substrate structure, such that the first surface is connected to the third surface; forming a second region of the pixel region on the second surface; forming a first connection via, the first connection via extending from the second surface to pass through the first substrate structure; mounting semiconductor chips on the fourth surface, using a conductive bump; and separating a stack structure of the first substrate structure, the second substrate structure, and the semiconductor chips into unit image sensing apparatuses.

Image sensing apparatus

An image sensing apparatus includes a first substrate structure, a second substrate structure, and a memory chip. The first substrate structure includes a pixel region having a photoelectric conversion element. The second substrate structure includes a first surface connected to the first substrate structure and a second surface opposite the first surface, and also includes a circuit region to drive the pixel region. The memory chip is mounted on the second surface of the second substrate structure. The first substrate structure and the second substrate structure are electrically connected by first connection vias passing through the first substrate structure. The second substrate structure and the memory chip are electrically connected by second connection vias passing through a portion of the second substrate structure. The first connection vias and the second connection vias are at different positions on a plane.
