SEMICONDUCTOR LASER CHIP PACKAGE WITH ENCAPSULATED RECESS MOLDED ON SUBSTRATE AND METHOD FOR FORMING SAME

摘要

A laminate leadless carrier package having a semiconductor chip mounted at the edge of a recess region in a substrate supporting the chip, the substrate having a plurality of conductive and dielectric layers, a wire bond coupled to the optoelectronic chip and a wire bond pad positioned on the top surface of the substrate. An encapsulation covers the laser chip, the wire bond, and at least a portion of the top surface of the substrate including the recess region. The encapsulation is an optically transparent molding compound. The package is arranged to be mounted as a side-looker and/or a top-looker.
