Abstract
A module includes a ceramic substrate, first and second electrodes provided on the ceramic substrate, a component having third and fourth electrodes connected to the first and second electrodes, respectively, and a resin filled in a space between the component and the ceramic substrate. The ceramic substrate has a surface thereof having a recess formed therein. The first and second electrodes are provided on the surface of the ceramic substrate so that the recess is located between the first and second electrodes. The component is located over the recess and spaced from the ceramic substrate with a space including the recess. The space including the recess is filled with the resin. The module allows each component to be surface mounted at higher bonding strength, thus preventing short-circuit between the electrodes on the substrate and improving the operation reliability.
