The first surface of the flexible substrate is juxtaposed with the first face of the microelectronic element so that the conductive posts project from the flexible substrate toward the first face of the microelectronic element. The conductive posts are electrically interconnected with the contacts of the microelectronic element and at least some of the conductive terminals are movable relative to the microelectronic element.

A method of making a plurality of sealed assemblies is provided which includes a) assembling a first element to a second element so that a bottom surface of the first element faces downwardly toward a front surface of the second element and a top surface of the first element faces upwardly away from the second element; and (b) forming ring seals surrounding regions of the front surface of the second element by introducing flowable material between the first element and the second element from the top surface of the first element through openings in the first element. A chip is provided which includes: (a) a body defining a front surface and one or more circuit elements on or within the body; (b) one or more bond pads exposed at the front surface in a bond pad region; and (c) a metallic ring exposed at the front surface, the ring substantially surrounding the bond pad region. Sealed chip assemblies are formed by sealing an array of the chips, e.g., in wafer form, to a cap element.

An electronic camera module includes a lens or refractive element formed by a pair of immiscible liquids and having optical properties which can be varied by applying a voltage so as to deform the meniscus. One of the two liquids extends from the meniscus all the way to the front surface of the sensor, so that light passing through the meniscus does not encounter further changes in refractive index enroute to the sensor.

摘要:
A packaged microelectronic device having a first and second electrically interconnected microelectronic elements and a method for its manufacture. Conductive posts extend from one major surface of the first microelectronic element. The first microelectronic element is electrically interconnected to the second microelectronic element via the conductive posts. The first microelectronic element preferably has an interposer element from which the conductive posts extend. The second microelectronic element is interconnected to the interposer element via contacts on the second microelectronic element via the conductive posts. The so interconnected microelectronic elements have coordinated functionality, such as a programmable logic device wherein one microelectronic element is a field programmable gate array and the other microelectronic element is a memory device. The packaged microelectronic device is formed by using a transfer substrate to transfer solder masses onto at least some of the conductive posts extending from the first major surface of the first microelectronic element or contacts on the second microelectronic element. The solder masses are then used to electrically interconnect the conductive posts with the contacts disposed on the surface of the second microelectronic element.

摘要:
A method of joining components by soldering comprising forming discrete layers of silver (13, 17) and another metal (19), e.g. a tin or indium based material, the two layers having volumes in a ratio different from that in the eutectic alloy formed by silver and that metal, and raising the temperature of the layers above the melting point of the eutectic alloy for a period sufficient to cause initially formation of the eutectic alloy and then, by reaction between the eutectic alloy and one or other of silver and the other metal, formation of a material having a melting point higher than the eutectic alloy melting point. The method allows soldering, e.g. of a silicon wafer (1) to a header (3), at a relatively low temperature below that which the joint will withstand after formation.

A microelectronic unit can include a semiconductor element having a front surface, a microelectronic semiconductor device adjacent to the front surface, contacts at the front surface and a rear surface remote from the front surface. The semiconductor element can have through holes extending from the rear surface through the semiconductor element and through the contacts. A dielectric layer can line the through holes. A conductive layer may overlie the dielectric layer within the through holes. The conductive layer can conductively interconnect the contacts with unit contacts.
