Seventh Embodiment
[0063] A module according to a seventh embodiment of the present disclosure will be described with reference to
[0064] The module 107 includes a second shield film 8b separate from the first shield film 8a.
[0065] The substrate 1 has a second surface 1b facing opposite to the first surface 1a. The module 107 includes a second sealing resin 6b disposed to cover the second surface 1b, and a second shield film 8b that covers a part of the side surface of the substrate 1 and the side surface of the second sealing resin 6b.
