PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an imaging module and an endoscope apparatus that acquire a high-quality image and can realize a downsized front end of an insertion part.SOLUTION: An imaging module 40 in the invention comprises: a solid imaging element 44 a substrate 45 that extends in an optical axis direction of the solid imaging element 44 and a laminate substrate 46 that is formed on a surface of the substrate 45 and on which electronic components 55 to 58 are mounted. The electronic components 57 and 58 are embedded in the laminate substrate 46. A transmission route for an image signal and a transmission route for a drive signal diverge from each other at a position closer to the solid imaging element 44 than the electronic components 57 and 58 embedded in the laminate substrate 46, and thereby the image signal and the drive signal are transmitted through different layers in the substrate 45 and the laminate substrate 46.COPYRIGHT: (C)2015,JPO&INPIT【課題】高画質の画像を得ると共に、挿入部先端の小型化を実現しうる撮像モジュールおよび内視鏡装置を提供すること。【解決手段】本発明における撮像モジュール40は、固体撮像素子44と、固体撮像素子44の光軸方向に延出する基板45と、基板45の表面に形成され、電子部品55~58が実装された積層基板46と、を備え、電子部品57および58は、積層基板46内に埋設され、画像信号の伝送経路と駆動信号の伝送経路とが、積層基板46内に埋設された電子部品57および58より固体撮像素子44側で分岐されることにより、画像信号と駆動信号とが、基板45および積層基板46の異なる層を介して伝送されることを特徴とする。【選択図】図4
