ASSEMBLY AND PACKAGING OF MEMS DEVICE
A Micro Electro Mechanical systems (MEMS) device includes a solder bump on a substrate, a CMOS-MEMS die comprising a CMOS die and a MEMS die, and stud bumps on the CMOS die. The MEMS die is disposed between the CMOS die and the substrate. The stud bumps and the solder bumps are positioned to provide an electrical connection between the CMOS die and the substrate.
MEMS device including a capacitive pressure sensor and manufacturing process thereof
MEMS device, in which a body made of semiconductor material contains a chamber, and a first column inside the chamber. A cap of semiconductor material is attached to the body and forms a first membrane, a first cavity and a first channel. The chamber is closed on the side of the cap. The first membrane, the first cavity, the first channel and the first column form a capacitive pressure sensor structure. The first membrane is arranged between the first cavity and the second face, the first channel extends between the first cavity and the first face or between the first cavity and the second face and the first column extends towards the first membrane and forms, along with the first membrane, plates of a first capacitor element.
Eutectic Bonding With ALGe
A MEMS device formed in a first semiconductor substrate is sealed using a second semiconductor substrate. To achieve this, an Aluminum Germanium structure is formed above the first substrate, and a polysilicon layer is formed above the second substrate. The first substrate is covered with the second substrate so as to cause the polysilicon layer to contact the Aluminum Germanium structure. Thereafter, eutectic bonding is performed between the first and second substrates so as to cause the Aluminum Germanium structure to melt and form an AlGeSi sealant thereby to seal the MEMS device. Optionally, the Germanium Aluminum structure includes, in part, a layer of Germanium overlaying a layer of Aluminum.
