Title:
MICROELECTROMECHANICAL SYSTEMS EMBEDDED IN A SUBSTRATE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2011/094594
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
An integrated circuit package includes a microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) device embedded in a packaging substrate. The MEMS device is located on a die embedded in the packaging substrate and covered by a hermetic seal. Low-stress material in the packaging substrate surrounds the MEMS device. Additionally, interconnects may be used as standoffs to reduce stress on the MEMS device. The MEMS device is embedded a distance into the packaging substrate leaving for example, 30-80 microns, between the hermetic seal of the MEMS device and the support surface of the packaging substrate. Embedding the MEMS device results in lower stress on the MEMS device.
