Abstract

A solid-state imaging device includes a semiconductor substrate having a foreside provided with an imaging area and an electrode pad, the imaging area having an array of optical sensors, the electrode pad being disposed around a periphery of the imaging area; a transparent substrate joined to the foreside of the semiconductor substrate with a sealant therebetween; underside wiring that extends through the semiconductor substrate from the electrode pad to an underside of the semiconductor substrate; and a protective film composed of an inorganic insulating material and interposed between the semiconductor substrate and the sealant, the protective film covering at least the electrode pad.
