Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A circuit module (101) includes a circuit board (1) having a main surface (1u), an electronic component (3) mounted on the main surface (1u), and a sealing resin (4) covering at least part of the electronic component (3) on the main surface (1u). A recess (7) is formed on at least part of a side surface (11) of the sealing resin (4). At least the recess (7) is covered with an electrically conductive film (6).

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

1 . A circuit module comprising: a circuit board having a main surface; an electronic component mounted on the main surface; and a sealing resin covering at least a part of a joint between the main surface and the electronic component, wherein a recess is provided on a side surface of the sealing resin at a position adjoining the joint, and at least the recess is covered with an electrically conductive film. 2 . The circuit module according to claim 1 , further comprising a grounding wire disposed on the main surface, wherein the electrically conductive film is connected to the grounding wire inside the recess. 3 . The circuit module according to claim 1 , wherein a part of the main surface or a part of the electronic component is not covered with the sealing resin but covered with the electrically conductive film. 4 . The circuit module according to claim 1 , wherein the electronic component includes a terminal electrode, and at least a part of the terminal electrode is not covered with the sealing resin but covered with the electrically conductive film. 5 . The circuit module according to claim 1 , wherein the electrically conductive film extends so as to cover a side surface of the circuit board. 6 . A manufacturing method for the circuit module according to claim 2 , the manufacturing method comprising: a step of mounting the electronic component and the grounding wire on the main surface of the circuit board; a step of forming a first material portion on a surface of at least any one of a part of the main surface of the circuit board and a part of the grounding wire disposed on the main surface, wherein the first material portion is formed by using a material having a property of repelling the sealing resin; a step of covering the main surface with the sealing resin and setting the sealing resin so as to cover at least a part of the electronic component and partially cover the first material portion; a step of forming the recess on the side surface of the sealing resin at the position adjoining the joint between the circuit board and the sealing resin by removing the first material portion; and a step of forming the electrically conductive film so as to cover at least the recess. 7 . The manufacturing method for a circuit module according to claim 6 , wherein, in the step of forming the first material portion, the first material portion is formed so as to cover a surface of a part of the electronic component. 8 . The circuit module according to claim 2 , wherein a part of the main surface or a part of the electronic component is not covered with the sealing resin but covered with the electrically conductive film. 9 . The circuit module according to claim 2 , wherein the electronic component includes a terminal electrode, and at least a part of the terminal electrode is not covered with the sealing resin but covered with the electrically conductive film. 10 . The circuit module according to claim 3 , wherein the electronic component includes a terminal electrode, and at least a part of the terminal electrode is not covered with the sealing resin but covered with the electrically conductive film. 11 . The circuit module according to claim 2 , wherein the electrically conductive film extends so as to cover a side surface of the circuit board. 12 . The circuit module according to claim 3 , wherein the electrically conductive film extends so as to cover a side surface of the circuit board. 13 . The circuit module according to claim 4 , wherein the electrically conductive film extends so as to cover a side surface of the circuit board.
