Abstract

A vehicular camera module for a vehicular vision system includes a housing having a front housing portion and a rear housing portion. A circuit board includes a circuit board substrate having electronic circuitry disposed thereat. A thermal interface elastomer material is at an inner surface of the front housing portion. The front housing portion, with the thermal interface elastomer material thereat, is disposed at the circuit board. With the lens assembly optically aligned with the imager, the circuit board is attached at the front housing portion. The rear housing portion is mated with the front housing portion to encase the circuit board. The thermal interface elastomer material interfaces with electronic components of the circuit board when the circuit board is attached at the front housing portion. A connector element in electrical contact with circuitry of the circuit board is configured to connect to a vehicle wire harness.
