    Abstract: Ultra-thin semiconductor devices, including piezoresistive sensing elements can be formed in a wafer stack that facilitates handling many thin device dice at a wafer level. Three embodiments are provided to form the thin dice in a wafer stack using three different fabrication techniques that include anodic bonding, adhesive bonding and fusion bonding. A trench is etched around each thin die to separate the thin die from others in the wafer stack. A tether layer, also known as a tether, is used to hold thin dice or dice in a wafer stack. Such as wafer stack holds many thin dice together at a wafer level for handling and enables easier die picking in packaging processes.

    Abstract: A MEMS device assembly (20) includes a MEMS die (22) and an integrated circuit (IC) die (24). The MEMS die (22) includes a MEMS device (36) formed on a substrate (38) and a cap layer (34). A packaging process (72) entails forming the MEMS device (36) on the substrate (38) and removing a material portion of the substrate (38) surrounding the device (36) to form a cantilevered substrate platform (46) at which the MEMS device (36) resides. The cap layer (34) is coupled to the substrate (38) overlying the MEMS device (36). The MEMS die (22) is electrically interconnected with the IC die (24). Molding compound (32) is applied to substantially encapsulate the MEMS die (22), the IC die (24), and interconnects (30) that electrically interconnect the MEMS device (22) with the IC die (24). The cap layer (34) prevents the molding compound (32) from contacting the MEMS device (36).

    Abstract: A sensor design, respectively a micromechanical sensor structure for capacitive relative-pressure measurement, that will allow very small pressure differentials to be reliably recorded at high absolute pressures even in harsh, particle-laden measuring environments. For that purpose, the micromechanical sensor element includes a deflectable diaphragm structure which is provided with at least one deflectable electrode, and a fixed support structure for at least one fixed counter-electrode which is located opposite the deflectable electrode. The diaphragm structure includes two mutually parallel configured diaphragms that are joined rigidly to one another via at least one connecting crosspiece, so that each application of force to one of the two diaphragms is directly transmitted to the respective other diaphragm. The first diaphragm is able to be pressurized by a first measuring pressure emanating from the front side of the sensor element, and the second diaphragm is able to be pressurized by a second measuring pressure emanating from the rear side of the sensor element. The fixed counter-electrode is located in the sealed volume between the two diaphragms of the diaphragm structure.
