| 20080315390 | Chip Scale Package For A Micro Component - A package includes a sensor die with a micro component, such as a MEMS device, coupled to an integrated circuit which may include, for example, CMOS circuitry, and one or more electrically conductive bond pads near the periphery of the sensor die. A semiconductor cap structure is attached to the sensor die. The front side of the cap structure is attached to the sensor die by a seal ring to hermetically encapsulate an area of the sensor die where the micro component is located. The bond pads on the sensor die are located outside the area encapsulated by the seal ring. Electrical leads, which extend along outer side edges of the semiconductor cap structure from its front side to its back side, are coupled to the micro component via the bond pads. | 12-25-2008 |
| 20090321760 | FABRICATION OF COMPACT OPTO-ELECTRONIC COMPONENT PACKAGES - A wafer-level method of fabricating an opto-electronic component package, in which the opto-electronic component is mounted to a semiconductor wafer having first and second surfaces on opposite sides of the wafer. The method includes etching vias in the first surface of the semiconductor wafer. The first surface and surfaces in the vias are metallized, and the metal is structured to define a thermal pad and to define the anode and cathode contact pads. A carrier wafer is attached on the side of the semiconductor wafer having the first surface, and the semiconductor wafer is thinned from its second surface to expose the metallization in the vias. Metal is provided on the second surface, and the metal is structured to define a die attach pad and additional anode and cathode pads for the opto-electronic component. The opto-electronic component is mounted on the die attach pad and a protective cover is formed over the opto-electronic component. | 12-31-2009 |
| 20100200888 | Silicon-Based Sub-Mount for an Opto-Electronic Device - A package for an optoelectronic device (e.g., a light emitting device such as a LED) includes a sub-mount including a silicon substrate having a thickness in the range of 350 μm-700 μm. The optoelectronic device is mounted on a die attach pad on the front-side surface of the substrate. Feed-through metallization in one or more via structures electrically couples the die attach pad to a contact pad on the back-side surface of the substrate. | 08-12-2010 |
