Abstract

A solid-state imaging apparatus includes: a solid-state imaging device mounted on a substrate; a bonding wire that electrically connects a pad formed on the solid-state imaging device to a lead island formed on the substrate; a frame member that has a frame-like shape and surrounds side portions of the solid-state imaging device; and a light-transmissive optical member so accommodated in the frame member that the optical member faces an imaging surface of the solid-state imaging device, wherein the frame member has a leg portion extending from the side where the optical member is present toward the imaging surface, and the frame member is integrally fixed to the solid-state imaging device with an end of the bonding wire that is connected to the pad covered with the leg portion.
