First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. An electronic module comprising: a first substrate which is a ceramic substrate, an insulating resin layer or a metal substrate; a first electronic element provided on upper side of the first substrate; a first connection body provided on upper side of the first electronic element; a second electronic element provided on upper side of the first connection body; and a second connection body provided on upper side of the second electronic element, wherein the first electronic element and the second electronic element do not overlap in a plane direction, the first connection body has a first head part including a first head area on lower side of the first connection body where the first electronic element is provided, a second head area on upper side of the first connection body where the second electronic element is provided, and a bent part provided between the first head area and the second head area in the plane direction, and the first connection body has a plurality of first support parts extending from the first head part and abutting on the first substrate, or the second connection body has a second head part and a plurality of second support parts extending from the second head part and abutting on the first substrate, the first connection body has a plurality of first pillar parts extending from the first head part to lower side, the second connection body has a second head part and a second pillar part extending from the second head part to lower side, and the second electronic element is sandwiched between one of the first pillar parts and the second pillar part, wherein the second electronic element, the one of the first pillar parts and the second pillar part overlap in the plane direction, and at least another one of the first pillar parts and the second pillar part do not overlap in the plane direction. 2. The electronic module according to claim 1 further comprising: a sealing part sealing the first electronic element, the first connection body, the second electronic element and the second connection body; and a second substrate provided on the upper side of the second connection body, wherein only the first connection body and the sealing part, or only the first connection body, the sealing part and a second conductor layer provided on lower side of the second substrate are provided between the second substrate and the first electronic element in a thickness direction. 3. The electronic module according to claim 1 further comprising a second substrate provided on the upper side of the second connection body, wherein a spacer is provided between the second substrate and the first connection body. 4. The electronic module according to claim 1 , wherein the first connection body has a first head part and a plurality of first support parts extending from the first head part, the second connection body has a second head part and a plurality of second support parts extending from the second head part, and an angle between a direction in which the first support part extends from the first head part in the plane direction and a direction in which the second support part extends from the second head part in the plane direction is within a range from 0 degrees to ±45 degrees. 5. An electronic module comprising: a first substrate which is a ceramic substrate, an insulating resin layer or a metal substrate; a first electronic element provided on upper side of the first substrate; a first connection body provided on upper side of the first electronic element; a second electronic element provided on upper side of the first connection body; and a second connection body provided on upper side of the second electronic element, wherein the first electronic element and the second electronic element do not overlap in a plane direction, the first connection body has a first head part including a first head area on lower side of the first connection body where the first electronic element is provided, a second head area on upper side of the first connection body where the second electronic element is provided, and a bent part provided between the first head area and the second head area in the plane direction, and (1) the first connection body has a plurality of first support parts extending from the first head part and abutting on the first substrate, at least one of the first support parts functions electrically and at least one of the first support parts does not function electrically, or (2) the second connection body has a second head part and a plurality of second support parts extending from the second head part and abutting on the first substrate, at least one of the second support parts functions electrically- and at least one of the second support parts does not function electrically. 6. An electronic module comprising: a first substrate which is a ceramic substrate, an insulating resin layer or a metal substrate; a first electronic element provided on upper side of the first substrate; a first connection body provided on upper side of the first electronic element; a second electronic element provided on upper ene side of the first connection body; and a second connection body provided on upper side of the second electronic element, wherein the first electronic element and the second electronic element do not overlap in a plane direction, the first connection body has a first head part including a first head area on lower side of the first connection body where which the first electronic element is provided, a second head area on upper side of the first connection body where the second electronic element is provided, and a bent part provided between the first head area and the second head area in the plane direction, the first connection body has a plurality of first pillar parts extending from the first head part to lower side, and a plurality of first support parts extending from the first head part, the second connection body has a second head part, a second pillar part extending from the second head part to lower side, and a plurality of second support parts extending from the second head part to lower side, the second electronic element, one of the first pillar parts and the second pillar part overlap in the plane direction, and at least another one of the first pillar parts and the second pillar part do not overlap in the plane direction, at least one of the first support parts functions electrically, and at least one of the first support parts does not function electrically, and at least one of the second support parts functions electrically, and at least one of the second support parts does not function electrically.
