AI Technical Summary
Technical Problem
Existing electronic devices face challenges in securing sufficient space for spacers, which can lead to a decrease in microlens area and sensor performance.
Method used
The electronic device incorporates a substrate with sensor regions and microlenses arranged in a hexagonal structure, where at least one microlens overlaps adjacent sensor regions in both the first and second directions, ensuring a sufficient spacer area and maintaining sensor performance.
Benefits of technology
This configuration effectively secures a sufficient area for spacers, prevents a reduction in microlens area, and maintains or enhances sensor performance in electronic devices.

Abstract
To provide an electronic device capable of sufficiently securing a region for providing a spacer, preventing the area of microlenses from becoming small, and preventing sensor performance from being reduced.SOLUTION: The electronic device includes a plurality of microlenses ML and a plurality of spacers PS arranged between a plurality of sensor areas SX. The plurality of sensor areas SX has a first sensor area SX11, a second sensor area SX12, and a third sensor area SX21 and includes microlenses MLb, MLd superimposed on the first sensor area SX11 and the second sensor area SX12 and microlenses MLc superimposed on the first sensor area SX11 and the third sensor area SX21.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 3
