A method for producing a camera module having a first part, preferably a housing part, and a second part, preferably a circuit board or a cover part, in which the two parts are connected in positive locking fashion. The positive lock is produced in that a connecting element connected to the first part in the form of a tongue, sleeve or a pin is guided through an opening of the second part, the first part is brought to abut on the second part and subsequently the end of the connecting element protruding beyond the second part is curled in a deforming process so that the curled end abuts on the second part in a pretensioned manner. A camera module is also described.

A housing has a first positioning hole that penetrates the housing in the vertical direction. A suction cap includes a suction plate part to be sucked by a suction nozzle, and a plurality of positioning protrusion parts, each of which is to be inserted into a first positioning hole of the housing of an input/output board-side connector and a CPU board-side connector in the state where the suction cap holds the input/output board-side connector and the CPU board-side connector. Each positioning protrusion part is inserted into each corresponding first positioning hole in the state where the suction cap holds the input/output board-side connector and the CPU board-side connector, which achieves the positioning of the input/output board-side connector and the CPU board-side connector with respect to the suction cap.

A short, high density interposer. The interposer has multiple contacts, with upwards and downwards-facing contact surfaces. Each of the contacts may be formed as a beam stamped from a sheet of metal. Two sheets of metal may be used in forming the interposer. A first sheet may be stamped with upwards facing contacts. A second sheet may be stamped with downwards facing contacts. Bases of the beams on the first sheet may be fused with bases of the beams on the second sheet, creating a conducting path through the interposer, with compliant contacts at each end. The joined contacts may be separated from the sheets from which they are stamped and held together with an insulative base of the interposer. Beams shaped to form contacts in the interposer may be closely spaced when stamped in a sheet of metal and may have a low height.
