Sensor Module And Method For Manufacturing Same
First Claim
1. A sensor module comprising:
- a carrier substrate comprising a bottom side and a top side;
a sensor region arranged on the top side of the carrier substrate and comprising a pressure-sensitive active area;
a signal-processing chip arranged on the top side of the carrier substrate and electrically connected to the sensor region; and
a continuous casting material covering the top side of the carrier substrate and the signal-processing chip and being in mechanical contact to both, the casting material comprising a recess which is arranged such that the casting material does not cover at least a part of the active area of the sensor region.

Abstract
A sensor module has a carrier substrate having a bottom side and a top side, a sensor chip arranged on the top side of the carrier substrate and having a pressure-sensitive active area, a signal-processing chip arranged on the top side of the carrier substrate next to the sensor chip and being connected to the sensor chip in an electrically conducting manner, a continuous casting material covering the top side of the carrier substrate and the signal-processing chip and being in mechanical contact with both, the casting material having a recess which is arranged such that the casting material does not cover at least a part of the active area of the sensor chip.

18. A method for manufacturing a sensor module, comprising:
-
producing a sensor region comprising a pressure-sensitive active area and arranging a signal-processing chip on a top side of a carrier substrate;
attaching a separating element separating a recess region not to be covered by a casting material with a part of the active area from a region to be covered by the casting material;
depositing the casting material on the top side of the carrier substrate and the signal-processing chip, no casting material being deposited in the recess region; and
curing the casting material. - View Dependent Claims (19, 20)
