In a hybrid integrated circuit device that is a circuit device of the present invention, a conductive pattern including pads is formed on a surface of a substrate. A first pad is formed to be relatively large since a heat sink is mounted thereon. A second pad is a small pad to which a chip component or a small signal transistor is fixed.

Consequently, occurrence of sink in the melted solder is suppressed.
