Abstract
A vehicular camera includes an imager printed circuit board (PCB) having an imager disposed at a first side of the imager PCB. A metal lens barrel accommodates a lens having a plurality of lens optics disposed within the metal lens barrel between an inner end and an outer end. The inner end of the metal lens barrel is adhesively bonded to the first side of the imager PCB via an adhesive ring. The adhesive ring is disposed between the inner end of the metal lens barrel and the first side of the imager PCB and circumscribes the imager at the first side of the imager PCB to enclose a region between the imager PCB and the lens, whereby the imager is disposed within the enclosed region between the imager PCB and the lens accommodated by the metal lens barrel.
