Abstract
A flexure for a camera module is provided. The flexure includes a dynamic platform to which an image sensor is connected such that the image sensor moves with the dynamic platform. The flexure also includes a static platform connected to a static portion of the camera. The flexure further includes a plurality of flexure arms that mechanically connect the dynamic platform to the static platform. The plurality of flexure arms includes a first flexure arm including one or more signal traces having a first impedance and a base layer having a first width. The plurality of flexure arms includes a second flexure arm including one or more signal traces having a second impedance and a base layer having a second width. The first impedance is greater than the second impedance. The first width is less than the second width. The second flexure arm routes image data from the image sensor.
