Abstract:
A manufacturing process includes forming a reconstituted wafer, including embedding semiconductor dice in a molding compound layer and forming through-wafer vias in the layer. A fan-out redistribution layer is formed on a front side of the wafer, with electrical traces interconnecting the dice, through-wafer vias, and contact pads positioned on the redistribution layer. Solder balls are positioned on the contact pads and a molding compound layer is formed on the redistribution layer, reinforcing the solder balls. A second fan-out redistribution layer is formed on a back side of the wafer, with electrical traces interconnecting back ends of the through-wafer vias and contact pads positioned on a back face of the second redistribution layer. Flip-chips and/or surface-mounted devices are coupled to the contact pads of the second redistribution layer and encapsulated in an underfill layer formed on the back face of the second redistribution layer.
Abstract:
The internal propagation of radiation between a radiation source and radiation detector mounted within a sensor package is prevented by the use of an optical isolator. The optical isolator is formed by the combination of a baffle mounted between the source and detector and a groove formed in an upper surface of the sensor package between the source and detector. A bottom of the groove is positioned adjacent to an upper edge of the baffle.
Abstract:
A focusing device for a lens, including a frame, a lens carrier movable relative to the frame from a first position along an optical axis, a motor for driving the lens carrier along the optical axis, and at least one biasing member adapted to bias the lens carrier towards the first position. The biasing member may include one or more bending members.
