Multi-Die Pressure Sensor Package
First Claim
1. A pressure sensor package, comprising:
- a substrate having an opening;
a pressure sensor having a first side attached to the substrate and a second side opposite the first side, the first side having a pressure inlet aligned with the opening in the substrate, the second side having one or more electrical contacts;
a logic die attached to an opposite side of the substrate as the pressure sensor and operable to process signals from the pressure sensor;
first electrical conductors connected to the one or more electrical contacts of the pressure sensor;
second electrical conductors connected to one or more electrical contacts of the logic die;
a mold compound completely encapsulating the second electrical conductors and at least partly encapsulating the logic die and the first electrical conductors; and
an open passage in the mold compound which is aligned with the opening in the substrate so as to define a pressure port of the pressure sensor package.

Abstract
A pressure sensor package includes a pressure sensor having a first side attached to a substrate and a second side opposite the first side, the first side having a pressure inlet aligned with an opening in the substrate, the second side having one or more electrical contacts. A logic die attached to an opposite side of the substrate as the pressure sensor is operable to process signals from the pressure sensor. First electrical conductors connect to the one or more electrical contacts of the pressure sensor. Second electrical conductors connect to one or more electrical contacts of the logic die. A mold compound completely encapsulates the second electrical conductors and at least partly encapsulates the logic die and the first electrical conductors. An open passage in the mold compound is aligned with the opening in the substrate so as to define a pressure port of the pressure sensor package.

13. A method of manufacturing a pressure sensor package, the method comprising:
-
attaching a first side of a pressure sensor to a substrate which has an opening, the pressure sensor having a second side opposite the first side, the first side having a pressure inlet aligned with the opening in the substrate, the second side having one or more electrical contacts; attaching a logic die to an opposite side of the substrate as the pressure sensor, the logic die operable to process signals from the pressure sensor; connecting first electrical conductors to the one or more electrical contacts of the pressure sensor; connecting second electrical conductors to one or more electrical contacts of the logic die; completely encapsulating the second electrical conductors and at least partly encapsulating the logic die and the first electrical conductors in a mold compound; and forming an open passage in the mold compound which is aligned with the opening in the substrate so as to define a pressure port of the pressure sensor package. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
