Abstract:
MEMS packages, modules, and methods of fabrication are described. In an embodiment, a MEMS package includes a MEMS die and an IC die mounted on a front side of a surface mount substrate, and a molding compound encapsulating the IC die and the MEMS die on the front side of the surface mount substrate. In an embodiment, a landing pad arrangement on a back side of the surface mount substrate forms and anchor plane area for bonding the surface mount substrate to a module substrate that is not directly beneath the MEMS die.
Abstract:
A PoP (package-on-package) package includes a bottom package coupled to a top package. Terminals on the top of the bottom package are coupled to terminals on the bottom of the top package with an electrically insulating material located between the upper surface of the bottom package and the lower surface of the top package. The bottom package and the top package are coupled during a process that applies force to bring the packages together while heating the packages.

Abstract:
Integrated circuit (IC) structure, IC die structures and methods of fabrication are described in which one or more edge recesses are formed in an IC die. Upon direct bonding to an electronic component, a molding compound can be applied to the bonded structure where the molding compound fills the one or more edge recesses and encroached underneath the IC die and between the IC die and the electronic component.
Abstract:
Modules and methods of assembly are described. A module includes a lid mounted on a module substrate and covering a component. A stiffener structure may optionally be mounted between the lid and module substrate. A recess can be formed in any of an outer wall bottom surface of the lid, and top or bottom surface of the stiffener structure such that an adhesive layer at least partially fills the recess.

Abstract:
An electronic device, such as a smart watch, incorporating a fluid-based pressure-sensing device is disclosed. The fluid-based pressure-sensing device includes an enclosure, a pressure sensor, a diaphragm and a sensing medium. The enclosure includes an opening and the pressure sensor is disposed inside the enclosure. The diaphragm hermetically seals the opening, and the sensing medium transfers a pressure exerted on the diaphragm to the pressure sensor. The sensing medium can be liquid oil filling a space of the enclosure, and the diaphragm is a polymer material. The pressure-sensing device may sense an environmental pressure, which may be used by the electronic device to modify its operations, change information that is displayed, and so on.
Abstract:
Multiple chip module (MCM) structures are described. In an embodiment, a module includes a first and second components on the top side of a module substrate, a stiffener structure mounted on the top side of the module substrate, and a lid mounted on the stiffener structure and covering the first component and the second component. The stiffener is joined to the lid within a trench formed in a roof of the lid.
