  • Patent number: 10367470
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a Wafer-Level-Packaged (WLP) Bulk Acoustic Wave (BAW) device that includes a BAW resonator, a WLP enclosure, and a surface mount connection structure. The BAW resonator includes a piezoelectric layer with an opening and a bottom electrode lead underneath the piezoelectric layer, such that a portion of the bottom electrode lead is exposed through the opening of the piezoelectric layer. The WLP enclosure includes a cap and an outer wall that extends from the cap toward the piezoelectric layer to form a cavity. The opening of the piezoelectric layer is outside the cavity. The surface mount connection structure covers a portion of a top surface of the cap and extends continuously over a side portion of the WLP enclosure and to the exposed portion of the bottom electrode lead through the opening of the piezoelectric layer.

  • Patent number: 10141245
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a high-power acoustic device with improved performance. The disclosed acoustic device includes a substrate, a die-attach material, and an acoustic die. The substrate includes a substrate body and a die pad on a top surface of the substrate body. The die-attach material is a sintered material and applied over the die pad. The acoustic die is coupled to the die pad via the die-attach material. Herein, the acoustic die includes a die body and a metallization structure, which is sandwiched between the die body and the die-attach material.
