Abstract
Methods for fabricating microelectronic packages and microelectronic packages having split gyroscope structures are provided. In one embodiment, the microelectronic package includes a first Microelectromechanical Systems (MEMS) die having a first MEMS gyroscope structure thereon. The microelectronic package further includes a second MEMS die, which has a second MEMS gyroscope structure thereon and which is positioned in a stacked relationship with the first MEMS die. The first and second MEMS gyroscope structures overlap as taken along a first axis orthogonal to a principal axis of the first MEMS die.
