The invention relates to a circuit module (10) having a circuit carrier (12), at least one circuit (14) mounted on the circuit carrier (12), encapsulated by a protective material (16), and at least one electrical/electronic component (18) encapsulated by a protective coating (20), protecting the at least one electrical/electronic component (18) from the protective material (16), and to a method for producing the circuit module (10). According to the invention, the protective coating (20) protecting the at least one electrical/electronic component (18) is only partially encapsulated by the protective material (16).
