  • Patent number: 12015023
    Abstract: An integrated circuit package and a method of forming the same are provided. The method includes attaching an integrated circuit die to a first substrate. A dummy die is formed. The dummy die is attached to the first substrate adjacent the integrated circuit die. An encapsulant is formed over the first substrate and surrounding the dummy die and the integrated circuit die. The encapsulant, the dummy die and the integrated circuit die are planarized, a topmost surface of the encapsulant being substantially level with a topmost surface of the dummy die and a topmost surface of the integrated circuit die. An interior portion of the dummy die is removed. A remaining portion of the dummy die forms an annular structure.

  • Publication number: 20200135991
    Abstract: A lighting device is disclosed, including an LED die, a light-transmissive encapsulant and a light-transmissive wall. The light-transmissive encapsulant covers the light-emitting side surfaces and the top surface, and the light-transmissive wall surrounds the light-transmissive encapsulant and covers the side surfaces of the light-transmissive encapsulant. Furthermore, the refractive index of the light-transmissive encapsulant is not greater than the refractive index of the light-transmissive wall. A lighting module is further disclosed, including a circuit substrate and the lighting devices, as described above, which are disposed on the circuit substrate. Therefore, when lights generated from the LED die are transmitted into the light-transmissive wall from the light-transmissive encapsulant, the lights will be deflected towards the lateral direction, thereby increasing the viewing angle of the lighting device.
