Disclosed is a method for fabricating an LED module. The method includes: constructing a chip-on-carrier including a chip retainer having a horizontal bonding plane and a plurality of LED chips in which electrode pads are bonded to the bonding plane of the chip retainer; and transferring the plurality of LED chips in a predetermined arrangement from the chip retainer to a substrate by transfer printing. The transfer printing includes: primarily section-wise exposing a transfer tape to reduce the adhesive strength of the transfer tape such that bonding areas are formed at predetermined intervals on the transfer tape; and pressurizing the transfer tape against the LED chips on the chip retainer to attach the LED chips to the corresponding bonding areas of the transfer tape and detaching the electrode pads of the LED chips from the chip retainer to pick up the chips.

A module includes a substrate, a plurality of components on an upper surface of the substrate, a component on a lower surface of the substrate, solder balls on the lower surface, sealing resin layers stacked on the upper surface and the lower surface of the substrate, and a shield film covering a side surface and an upper surface of the module. Part of each solder ball is exposed from a surface of the sealing resin layer, and the exposed parts are shaped to protrude from the sealing resin layer. The module can be connected to a mother substrate by connecting the protruding parts of the solder balls. There are gaps between the solder balls and the sealing resin layer, and the occurrence of cracks in the solder balls can be suppressed by reducing stress arising from a difference in thermal expansion coefficient between the solder and the resin.
