Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a micro-electro mechanical system (MEMS) package and a method of achieving differential pressure adjustment in multiple MEMS cavities at a wafer-to-wafer bonding level. In some embodiments, a ventilation trench and an isolation trench are concurrently within a capping substrate. The isolation trench isolates a silicon region and has a height substantially equal to a height of the ventilation trench. A sealing structure is formed within the ventilation trench and the isolation trench, the sealing structure filing the isolation trench and defining a vent within the ventilation trench. A device substrate is provided and bonded to the capping substrate at a first gas pressure and hermetically sealing a first cavity associated with a first MEMS device and a second cavity associated with a second MEMS device. The capping substrate is thinned to open the vent to adjust a gas pressure of the second cavity.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a wafer level chip scale package (WLCSP) with a stress absorbing cap substrate. The cap substrate is bonded to a die through a bond ring and a bond pad arranged on an upper surface of the cap substrate. A through substrate via (TSV) extends from the bond pad, through the cap substrate, to a lower surface of the cap substrate. Further, recesses in the upper surface extend around the bond pad and along sidewalls of the bond ring. The recesses absorb induced stress, thereby mitigating any device offset in the die.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a method of forming a micro-electro mechanical system (MEMs) structure. In some embodiments, the method may be performed by providing a device substrate having a first MEMS device and a second MEMS device, and by providing a capping structure having a first cavity and a second cavity. The capping structure is bonded to the device substrate, such that the first cavity is arranged over the first MEMS device and the second cavity is arranged over the second MEMS device. A first pressure is established within the first cavity and the second cavity. A vent is selectively etched within the capping structure to change the first pressure within the second cavity to a second pressure, which is different from the first pressure.
