摘要:
Fabrication methods are provided for a sensor device packages. An exemplary fabrication method involves bonding a sensor structure and another structure using a sealing structure. The sealing structure surrounds a diaphragm region of the sensor structure and provides an airtight seal between the sensor structure and the other structure to establish a fixed reference pressure on one side of the diaphragm region.

Apparatus and related fabrication methods are provided for a sensor device. The sensor device includes a sensor structure including a first portion having a sensing arrangement formed thereon and a second structure. A sealing structure is interposed between the sensor structure and the second structure, wherein the sealing structure surrounds the first portion of the sensor structure. The sealing structure establishes a fixed reference pressure on a first side of the first portion, and an opposing side of the first portion is exposed to an ambient pressure.

A method and apparatus are described for fabricating an exposed backside pressure sensor (30) which protects interior electrical components (37) formed on a topside surface of a pressure sensor transducer die (31) from corrosive particles using a protective gel layer (38) and molding compound (39), but which vents a piezoresistive transducer sensor diaphragm (33) formed on a backside of the pressure sensor transducer die (31) through a vent hole (42) formed in an exposed die flag (36), enabling the sensor diaphragm (33) to directly sense pressure variations without the influence of a protective gel.

A method and apparatus are described for fabricating an exposed differential pressure sensor (30) which protects interior electrical components (37) formed on a topside surface of a differential pressure sensor transducer die (31) from corrosive particles using a molding compound (39), but which vents both sides of a piezoresistive transducer sensor diaphragm (33) through a first vent hole (42) formed in an exposed die flag (36) and a second vent hole (38) formed in an exposed cap structure (33), enabling the sensor diaphragm (33) to sense differential pressure variations directly or indirectly through a protective gel.

A MEMS device (100) is provided that includes a handle layer (108) having a sidewall (138), a cap (132) overlying said handle layer (108), said cap (132) having a sidewall (138), and a conductive material (136) disposed on at least a portion of said sidewall of said cap (138) and said sidewall of said handle layer (138) to thereby electrically couple said handle layer (108) to said cap (132). A wafer-level method for manufacturing the MEMS device from a substrate (300) comprising a handle layer (108) and a cap (132) overlying the handle layer (108) is also provided. The method includes making a first cut through the cap (132) and at least a portion of the substrate (300) to form a first sidewall (138), and depositing a conductive material (136) onto the first sidewall (138) to electrically couple the cap (132) to the substrate (300).
摘要:
Methods are provided for manufacturing a sensor. The method comprises depositing a sacrificial material at a first predetermined thickness onto a wafer having at least one sense element mounted thereon, the sacrificial material deposited at least partially onto the at least one sense element, forming an encapsulating layer at a second predetermined thickness less than the first predetermined thickness over the wafer and around the deposited sacrificial material, and removing the sacrificial material. Apparatus for a sensor manufactured by the aforementioned method are also provided.
