    Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to a sensor die with an embedded light sensor and an embedded light emitter as well as methods of manufacturing the same. The light emitter in the senor die is surrounded by a resin. The sensor die is incorporated into semiconductor device packages as well as methods of manufacturing the same. The semiconductor device packages include a first optically transmissive structure on the light sensor of the sensor die and a second optically transmissive structure on the light emitter of the sensor die. The first optically transmissive structure and the second optically transmissive structure cover and protect the light sensor and the light emitter, respectively. A molding compound is on a surface of a sensor die and covers sidewalls of the first and second optically transmissive structures on the sensor die.

    Abstract: A semiconductor device having a channel between active sections or portions of the device is disclosed. An elastic material, such as dielectric or a polymer, is deposited into the channel and cured to increase flexibility and thermal expansion properties of the semiconductor device. The elastic material reduces the thermal and mechanical mismatch between the semiconductor device and the substrate to which the semiconductor device is coupled in downstream processing to improve reliability. The semiconductor device may also include a plurality of channels formed transverse with respect to each other. Some of the channels extend all the way through the semiconductor device, while other channels extend only partially through the semiconductor device.

    Abstract: A molded carrier is formed by a unitary body made of a laser direct structuring (LDS) material and includes a blind opening with a bottom surface. The unitary body includes: a floor body portion defining a back side and the bottom surface of the blind opening and an outer peripheral wall body portion defining a sidewall surface of the blind opening. LDS activation followed by electro-plating is used to produce: a die attach pad and bonding pad at the bottom surface; land grid array (LGA) pads at the back side; and vias extending through the floor body portion to make electrical connections between the die attach pad and one LGA pad and between the bonding pad and another LGA pad. An integrated circuit chip is mounted to the die attach pad and wire bonded to the bonding pad. A wafer-scale manufacturing process is used to form the molded carrier.
