VERTICAL MOUNT PACKAGE AND WAFER LEVEL PACKAGING THEREFOR

摘要

Vertical mount packages and methods for making the same are disclosed. A method for manufacturing a vertical mount package includes providing a device substrate with a plurality of device regions on a front surface, and a plurality of through-wafer vias. MEMS devices or integrated circuits are formed or mounted onto the device regions. A capping substrate having recesses is mounted over the device substrate, enclosing the device regions within cavities defined by the recesses. A plurality of aligned through-wafer contacts extend through the capping substrate and the device substrate. The device substrate and capping substrate can be singulated by cutting through the aligned through-wafer contacts, with the severed through-wafer contacts forming vertical mount leads. A vertical mount package includes a device sealed between a device substrate and a capping substrate. At least of the side edges of the package includes exposed conductive elements for vertical mount leads.
