| 20090057544 | CAMERA MODULE LENS CAP - A camera module lens cap is provided to protect a camera module in a mobile device where the camera module is exposed. The camera module lens cap includes an optically transparent member for positioning adjacent a camera lens, and a housing for carrying the optically transparent member. The housing includes an overhanging lip for engaging a base of the camera module. | 03-05-2009 |
| 20100297813 | Semiconductor package with position member - The present disclosure provides a very thin semiconductor package including a leadframe with a die-attach pad and a plurality of lead terminals, a die attached to the die-attach pad and electrically connected to the lead terminals via bonding wires, a position member disposed upon the die and/or die-attach pad, and a molding material encapsulating the leadframe, the die, and the position member together to form the semiconductor package. The method for manufacturing a very thin semiconductor package includes disposing a first position member on one side of the die-attach pad of a leadframe, attaching a die onto the opposite side of the die-attach pad, optionally disposing a second position member on top of the die, electrically connecting the die to the lead terminals of the leadframe, and encapsulating the leadframe, the die, and the position member(s) together to form the very thin semiconductor package. | 11-25-2010 |
| 20110006411 | Simplified multichip packaging and package design - A multichip integrated circuit apparatus includes first and second integrated circuit die mounted on opposite sides of a leadframe die paddle, with at least one of the integrated circuit die extending further toward the leads than does the die paddle. With this arrangement, the active circuit areas of both integrated circuit die can face in the same direction, and can be wire bonded to the same surfaces of the leads. This avoids wire bonding complications that are often encountered in multichip integrated circuit package designs. | 01-13-2011 |
| 20110018125 | SEMICONDUCTOR PACKAGE WITH A STIFFENING MEMBER SUPPORTING A THERMAL HEAT SPREADER - A semiconductor package includes a substrate board and a semiconductor die attached to a top surface of that substrate board. A heat spreader is provided over the semiconductor die. A stiffening ring is positioned surrounding the semiconductor die, the stiffening ring being attached to the top surface of the substrate board and attached to a bottom surface of the plate portion of the heat spreader. Space is left on the board outside of the stiffening ring to support the installation of passive components to the substrate board. An external ring may be included, with that external ring being interconnected to the stiffening ring by a set of tie bars. Alternatively, the heat spreader includes an integrally formed peripheral sidewall portion. | 01-27-2011 |

| 20090014822 | MICROELECTRONIC IMAGERS AND METHODS FOR MANUFACTURING SUCH MICROELECTRONIC IMAGERS - Microelectronic imagers and methods of manufacturing such microelectronic imagers are disclosed. In one embodiment, a method for manufacturing a microelectronic imager can include irradiating selected portions of an imager housing unit. The housing unit includes a body having lead-in surfaces and a support surface that define a recess sized to receive a microelectronic die. The method also includes depositing a conductive material onto the irradiated portions of the housing unit and forming electrically conductive traces. The method further includes coupling a plurality of terminals at a front side of a microelectronic die to corresponding electrically conductive traces in the recess in a flip-chip configuration. The microelectronic die includes an image sensor aligned with at least a portion of an optical element carried by the housing unit and at least partially aligned with the recess. The method can then include depositing an encapsulant into the recess and over at least a portion of the microelectronic die. | 01-15-2009 |
| 20100068851 | CASTELLATION WAFER LEVEL PACKAGING OF INTEGRATED CIRCUIT CHIPS - Systems and methods for packaging integrated circuit chips in castellation wafer level packaging are provided. The active circuit areas of the chips are coupled to castellation blocks and, depending on the embodiment, input/output pads. The castellation blocks and input/output pads are encapsulated and held in place by an encapsulant. When the devices are being fabricated, the castellation blocks and input/output pads are sawed through. If necessary, the wafer portion on which the devices are fabricated may be thinned. The packages may be used as a leadless chip carrier package or may be stacked on top of one another. When stacked, the respective contacts of the packages are preferably coupled. Data may be written to, and received from, packaged chips when a chip is activated. Chips may be activated by applying the appropriate signal or signals to the appropriate contact or contacts. | 03-18-2010 |
| 20110018143 | WAFER LEVEL PACKAGING - Through vias in a substrate are formed by creating a trench in a top side of the substrate and at least one trench in the back side of the substrate. The sum of the depths of the trenches at least equals the height of the substrate. The trenches cross at intersections, which accordingly form the through vias from the top side to the back side. The through vias are filled with a conductor to form contacts on both sides and the edge of the substrate. Contacts on the backside are formed at each of the trench. The through vias from the edge contacts. Traces connect bond pads to the conductor in the through via. Some traces are parallel to the back side traces. Some traces are skew to the back side traces. The substrate is diced to form individual die. | 01-27-2011 |
