The first substrate may include an upper surface, a lower surface, and an upper cavity in the upper surface. The first electrical component may reside in the upper cavity of the first substrate. The lid may cover the upper cavity and may include a port that permits fluid to flow between an environment external to the semiconductor device and the upper cavity. The second substrate may include the second electrical component mounted to an upper surface of the second substrate. The lower surface of the first substrate and the upper surface of the second substrate may fluidically seal the second electrical component from the upper cavity.

A micromechanical device that includes a MEMS substrate and a cap substrate that enclose at least one first cavity, with at least one contact pad that is situated outside the first cavity. A MEMS structure is situated in the first cavity and connected to the contact pad with the aid of a strip conductor, the strip conductor extending at least partially in the MEMS substrate. The contact pad is situated at a surface of the cap substrate.

A packaged micro-electro-mechanical system (MEMS) device (100) comprises a circuitry chip (101) attached to the pad (110) of a substrate with leads (111), and a MEMS (150) vertically attached to the chip surface by a layer (140) of low modulus silicone compound. On the chip surface, the MEMS device is surrounded by a polyimide ring (130) with a surface phobic to silicone compounds. A dome-shaped glob (160) of cured low modulus silicone material covers the MEMS and the MEMS terminal bonding wire spans (180); the glob is restricted to the chip surface area inside the polyimide ring and has a surface non-adhesive to epoxy-based molding compounds. A package (190) of polymeric molding compound encapsulates the vertical assembly of the glob embedding the MEMS, the circuitry chip, and portions of the substrate; the molding compound is non-adhering to the glob surface yet adhering to all other surfaces.

A method of manufacturing an ultrasound imaging device involves forming an interposer structure, including forming a first metal material within openings through a substate and on top and bottom surfaces of the substrate, patterning the first metal material, forming a dielectric layer over the patterned first metal material, forming openings within the dielectric layer to expose portions of the patterned first metal material, filling the openings with a second metal material, forming a third metal material on the top and bottom surfaces of the substrate, and patterning the third metal material. The method further involves forming a packaging structure for an ultrasound-on-chip device, including attaching a multi-layer flex substrate to a carrier wafer, bonding a first side of an ultrasound-on-chip device to the multi-layer flex substrate, bonding a second side of the ultrasound-on-chip device to a first side of the interposer structure, and removing the carrier wafer.

The present disclosure describes a process for making a three-dimensional (3D) package, which starts with providing a mold precursor module that includes a first device die and a floor connectivity die (FCD) encapsulated by a mold compound. The FCD includes a sacrificial die body and multiple floor interconnections underneath the sacrificial die body. Next, the mold compound is thinned down until the sacrificial die body of the FCD is completely consumed, such that each floor interconnection is exposed through the mold compound. The thinning down step does not affect a device layer in the first device die. A second device die, which includes a die body and multiple electrical die interconnections, is then mounted over the exposed floor interconnections. Herein, each electrical die interconnection is vertically aligned with and electrically connected to a corresponding floor interconnection from the FCD.

A sensor package including a fixed frame, a moveable platform, elastic restoring members and a sensor chip is provided. The moveable platform is moved with respect to the fixed frame, and used to carry the sensor chip. The elastic restoring members are connected between the fixed frame and the moveable platform, and used to restore the moved moveable platform to an original position. The sensor chip is arranged on the elastic restoring members to send detected data via the elastic restoring members.
