Original Abstract Submitted
An optical device includes a lens optical system, a first circuit board, and a second circuit board. The lens optical system includes a plurality of lenses disposed along an optical axis. The first circuit board has a first main surface extending along a direction intersecting the optical axis of the lens optical system and has a second main surface on a side of the first circuit board that is opposite from a side that the first main surface is on. The second circuit board has a third main surface extending along a direction intersecting the first main surface and has a fourth main surface on a side of the second circuit board that is opposite from a side that the third main surface is on. The first circuit board and the second circuit board are soldered to each other.
