    摘要: Image sensor packages, lenses therefore, and methods for fabrication are disclosed. A substrate having through-hole vias may be provided, and an array of lenses may be formed in the vias. The lenses may be formed by molding or by tenting material over the vias. An array of lenses may provide a color filter array (CFA). Filters of the CFA may be formed in the vias, and lenses may be formed in or over the vias on either side of the filters. A substrate may include an array of microlenses, and each microlens of the array may correspond to a pixel of an associated image sensor. In other embodiments, each lens of the array may correspond to an imager array of an image sensor. A wafer having an array of lenses may be aligned with and attached to an imager wafer comprising a plurality of image sensor dice, then singulated to form a plurality of image sensor packages.

    摘要: The invention includes methods of determining x-y spatial orientation of a semiconductor substrate comprising an integrated circuit, methods of positioning a semiconductor substrate comprising an integrated circuit, methods of processing a semiconductor substrate, and semiconductor devices. In one implementation, a method of determining x-y spatial orientation of a semiconductor substrate comprising an integrated circuit includes providing a semiconductor substrate comprising at least one integrated circuit die. The semiconductor substrate comprises a circuit side, a backside, and a plurality of conductive vias extending from the circuit side to the backside. The plurality of conductive vias on the semiconductor substrate backside is examined to determine location of portions of at least two of the plurality of conductive vias on the semiconductor substrate backside. From the determined location, x-y spatial orientation of the semiconductor substrate is determined. Other aspects and implementations are contemplated.
