Abstract:
A method for packaging a semiconductor device. The method includes: providing a dielectric layer over the semiconductor device; determining patterns and placement of material on the dielectric layer to provide a predetermined magnetic or electric effect for the device, such effects being provided on the device from such patterned and placed material solely by electrical or magnetic waves coupled between such material and the device; and forming the material in the determined patterns and placement to provide the predetermined effects.
Abstract:
A microwave communication package is constructed on an electrically conducting base plate having a first side defining a base plate cavity, with an antenna apparatus mounted on an opposite, second side. A dielectric substrate on the first side of the base plate covers the base plate cavity; and sealing apparatus contacting the dielectric substrate and the base plate completely around the base plate cavity hermetically seals the cavity. Circuitry mounted on a surface of the substrate within the base plate cavity includes one or more microstrip lines communicating components to one or more waveguides comprising openings extending through the base plate; and the waveguides are coupled at their opposite ends to the antenna apparatus.

Abstract:
The present invention provides methods and devices for shielding an electronic component package. In one embodiment, an EMI shield is integrally formed within the package adjacent the die and grounded. The EMI shield may be a metallized shaped polymer layer and may be disposed fully within the package or it may extend out of the package.
Abstract:
An electronic component, in which a chip can be mounted on a certain predetermined place of the package at a high accuracy level, which package having a stepped level-difference in the inner wall of a cavity. The package is provided with a stepped level-difference in the inner wall surface, and an internal contact electrode formed on the upper surface of the stepped level-difference. At the bottom of the package is a shield electrode, on which a chip is mounted via an adhesion layer. The chip and the internal contact electrode are electrically connected by an interconnection wire. Location aligning for the chip and the interconnection wire, at least either one of these, is conducted by making use of a region, which is non-electrode portion, provided on the inner bottom surface of the package.

In an electronic component (11) comprising an electronic circuit or a circuit element in a metallic case including a case (13) and a cover (39), a magnetic thin film (51) made of a magnetic loss material is provided on at least one part of an inner wall surface of the metallic case. In the magnetic loss material, its composition is represented by M-X—Y, wherein M denotes at least one of Fe, Co and Ni, X denotes at least one of elements other than M and Y, and Y denotes at least one of F, N and O. The maximum value &mgr;″max of an imaginary part &mgr;″, which is an imaginary number component of a complex permeability of the magnetic loss material, exists within a frequency range from 100 MHz to 10 GHz. A relative bandwidth bwr is not greater than 200% where the relative bandwidth bwr is obtained by extracting a frequency bandwidth between two frequencies at which the value of &mgr;″ is 50% of the maximum &mgr;″max and normalizing the frequency bandwidth at the center frequency thereof. It is possible to provide an electronic component including a metallic case, which contains a high-speed operation type of semiconductor device and/or an electronic circuit and in which undesired radiation is reduced.
