A solid-state imaging-device includes a base, frame-shaped ribs provided
on the base and forming an internal space, a plurality of wiring members
for electrically leading the internal space of a housing formed by the
base and the ribs to an external portion, an imaging element fixed to the
base inside the internal space, a transparent plate fixed to an upper
surface of the ribs, and connecting members electrically connecting
electrodes of the imaging element to the wiring members, wherein a
plurality of protrusions are provided in a region of the base that faces
the imaging element, and the imaging element is fixed by adhesive to the
base while being supported by the protrusions. The protrusions enable the
imaging element to avoid distortion caused by following the surface of
the base, thereby suppressing the effect on electrical properties of the
imaging element.
