Producing method of solid state pickup device, and attaching method and device for the same
First Claim
1. An attaching method of attaching a solid state pickup device to an electronic camera including a lens barrel, and a condenser lens supported in said lens barrel, said attaching method comprising steps of:
- placing said solid state pickup device in a receiving recess formed in a rear portion of said lens barrel, said receiving recess having a size larger than said solid state pickup device; and
pressing said solid state pickup device in an optical axis direction of said condenser lens and a crosswise direction crosswise to said optical axis direction, for fitting and positioning a front face and a partial end face of said solid state pickup device into said receiving recess.

Abstract
A producing method of producing a solid state pickup device is provided. Imaging elements are formed on a wafer in a matrix form. Each of the imaging elements has a light receiving surface and plural contact points. Receiving surface border portions are formed on a glass plate to protrude therefrom in a matrix form by etching. The receiving surface border portions are attached to the wafer to surround the light receiving surface in each of the receiving surface border portions. The light receiving surface is spaced from the glass plate. The glass plate is diced outside respectively the receiving surface border portions, to form shield glass for covering the light receiving surface. The wafer is diced for each of the imaging elements, to obtain the solid state pickup device having the shield glass and one of the imaging elements.

13. An attaching method of attaching a solid state pickup device to a taking lens barrel, comprising steps of:
-
forming plural light receiving surfaces on a wafer, each of said light receiving surfaces being adapted to convert incident light of an image to an electric signal;
forming first and second grooves in a shield glass plate substantially in parallel with each other;
attaching said shield glass plate to said wafer by opposing said first and second grooves to positions offset from said light receiving surface, wherein ends of said first and second grooves appear externally;
attaching a reinforcing glass plate to said wafer on a side opposite to said shield glass plate;
dicing said wafer, said shield glass plate and said reinforcing glass plate together for each of said light receiving surfaces, to obtain said solid state pickup device;
inserting first and second projections into end openings of said first and second grooves, said first and second projections projecting from a first auxiliary panel, whereby said first auxiliary panel is connected with said solid state pickup device;
inserting third and fourth projections into end openings of said first and second grooves, said third and fourth projections projecting from a second auxiliary panel, whereby said second auxiliary panel is connected with said solid state pickup device; and
attaching said first and second auxiliary panels to a rear of said lens barrel.
