Abstract:
A pressure sensor module including a housing, a pressure sensor chip, and one or more of an integrated passive device (IDP) chip and discrete passive devices are disclosed. The pressure sensor chip and one or more of the IPD chip and the discrete passive devices are arranged within the housing.
Abstract:
Examples provided herein are associated with a molded lead frame of a sensor package. An example sensor package may include a molded lead frame that includes an opening in the molded lead frame, wherein the opening extends from a mount-side of the molded lead frame to a chip-side of the molded lead frame, wherein the chip-side of the molded lead frame is opposite the mount-side; and a sensor mounted to the chip-side of the molded lead frame.

Abstract:
A pressure sensor package includes a lead and a semiconductor die spaced apart from the lead and including a terminal and a diaphragm disposed at a first side of the die. The die is configured to change an electrical parameter responsive to a pressure difference across the diaphragm. The package further includes an electrical conductor connecting the terminal to the lead, a molding compound encasing the electrical conductor, the die and part of the lead, a cavity in the molding compound exposing the diaphragm, and a sealing ring disposed on a side of the molding compound with the cavity. The sealing ring surrounds the cavity and has a lower elastic modulus than the molding compound. Alternatively, the sealing ring can be a ridge of the molding compound that protrudes from the side of the molding compound with the cavity and surrounds the cavity. A package manufacturing method is also provided.
Abstract:
In various embodiments, a chip package is provided. The chip package may include at least one chip having a plurality of pressure sensor regions and encapsulation material encapsulating the chip.
Abstract:
An embodiment method for separating semiconductor devices from a wafer comprises using a carrier which acts an adjustable adhesive force upon the semiconductor devices and removing the semiconductor devices from the carrier by applying a mechanical or acoustical impulse to the carrier.
Abstract:
A method of processing semiconductor dies is provided. Each semiconductor die has a first side with one or more terminals, a second side opposite the first side and sidewalls extending between the first and the second sides. The semiconductor dies are processed by placing the semiconductor dies on a support substrate so that the first side of each semiconductor die faces the support substrate and the second side faces away from the support substrate. A coating is applied to the semiconductor dies placed on the support substrate. The coating has a lower reflectivity than the first side of the semiconductor dies. The coating covers the second side and at least a region of the sidewalls nearest the second side of each semiconductor die. The semiconductor dies are removed from the support substrate after applying the coating for further processing as loose dies such as taping.

Abstract:
An apparatus for determining a state of a rechargeable battery or of a battery has a sensor device and an evaluation device. The sensor device brings about an interaction between an optical signal and a part of the rechargeable battery or of the battery, which part indicates optically acquirable information about a state of the rechargeable battery or of the battery, and detects an optical signal caused by the interaction. The sensor device furthermore provides a detection signal having information about the detected optical signal. The evaluation device determines information about a state of the rechargeable battery or of the battery on the basis of the information of the detection signal. Furthermore, the evaluation device provides a state signal having the information about the determined state.
