1. An optical module, having a first side and a second side, comprising:
a movable portion, holding an optical element with an optical axis;
a fixed portion, comprising a base, an external electrical connection portion and an internal electrical connection portion, and the movable portion is movably connected to the fixed portion;
a driving portion, configured to drive the movable portion to move relative to the fixed portion;
a position-sensing portion, comprising a position-sensing element, wherein the position-sensing element is configured to sense a position of the movable portion relative to the fixed portion; and
a circuit board, electrically connected to the position-sensing element, wherein the position-sensing element is disposed on the circuit board;
wherein the circuit board is disposed on the first side, the external electrical connection portion is disposed on the second side that is perpendicular to the first side, the external electrical connection portion has a plurality of terminals, the internal electrical connection portion has a plurality of terminals and the terminals are connected to the circuit board, and the terminals of the internal electrical connection portion arranged along the first side are connected to the terminals of the external electrical connection portion arranged along a direction that is perpendicular to the first side and parallel to the second side through portions of a circuit component embedded in the base,
wherein the circuit board and the internal electrical connection portion partially overlap when viewed along a direction parallel to the optical axis.
