SENSOR DEVICE AND METHOD OF FORMING A SENSOR DEVICE

摘要

A sensor device (20) comprises a sensor package (22) having a cavity (24) formed therein, a sensor die (26) mounted on a bottom surface (28) of the cavity (24) and a protective coating (30) formed over the sensor die in the cavity. The protective coating (30) is formed from a material, preferably a polymer material, which is arranged to have a graduated cross-linking density such that the material at the top of the cavity (24) has a high density of cross-linking and the material at the bottom of the cavity (24), which material is in contact with the sensor die, has a low density of cross-linking.
