The present optical module includes a sensor configured to pick up an image of an image pickup object, and a memory chip configured to store pixel data read out from the sensor and having the sensor joined thereto. The memory chip is connected to a substrate by a connection portion by flip-chip connection. The sensor can be connected by a wire to the memory chip, to which the sensor is joined. Further, the sensor can be joined to the memory chip in such a manner as to project toward an opening of the substrate. The present technology can be applied to a camera module.
