Abstract
The method for manufacturing a camera module of the present invention includes forming a bump on each electrode portion of an imaging element. Next, a through hole is formed in a substrate. The imaging element is then mounted on a first side of the substrate having at least one bump such that a light receiving portion of the imaging element receives light via the through-hole of the substrate. A periphery of the imaging element is sealed to the substrate. Next, a lens unit is mounted on a second side of the substrate.
