CAMERA MODULE AND ELECTRONIC DEVICE COMPRISING SAME - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240107141 titled 'CAMERA MODULE AND ELECTRONIC DEVICE COMPRISING SAME
Simplified Explanation
The camera module described in the abstract includes a housing assembly with a housing, a first rear member, a second rear member, an image sensor, and at least one lens. The first rear member overlaps with a part of the printed circuit board and includes a plate that aligns with a first opening in the board. The second rear member has a thicker thickness than the first rear member and includes a support with a second opening for the first rear member. The image sensor is exposed towards the housing assembly through the first opening, and the lens is aligned with the optical axis of the image sensor within the housing assembly.
