Abstract: Methods of making packaged surface acoustic wave devices are provided. The method may include forming a photosensitive resin coat over a cavity-defining structure encapsulating a surface acoustic wave device. The photosensitive resin coat may be formed using a spin-coating process, and then patterned to form a desired shape. Portions of the photosensitive resin may be removed from areas near the edge of the die, to facilitate separation of a wafer into individual dies. The method may also include forming a conductive structure using a plating process, where the conductive structure is located between the resin coat and the cavity defining structure. The photosensitive resin can include a phenol resin. The packaged surface acoustic wave devices made using a photosensitive resin coat may be relatively thin, and may have a height of less than 220 micrometers.

Abstract: Laser-marked packaged surface acoustic wave devices are provided. The laser-marked packaged surface acoustic wave device may include a package structure encapsulating a surface acoustic wave device on a first side of a piezoelectric substrate. The opposite side of the piezoelectric substrate can be directly marked using a laser. The laser may be a deep ultraviolet laser. By directly marking the piezoelectric substrate itself, the use of a separate marking film can be avoided, making the packaged surface acoustic wave device thinner. When the laser has a wavelength readily absorbed by the piezoelectric substrate, a relatively shallow marking may be made in the piezoelectric substrate. The markings can extend less than 1 micrometer into the piezoelectric substrate, so as not to affect the structural integrity of the piezoelectric substrate or the operation of the packaged surface acoustic wave device.

The method may include directly marking a surface of a piezoelectric substrate, where the opposite surface of the piezoelectric substrate includes a package structure encapsulating a surface acoustic wave device. The method may include exposing the surface of the piezoelectric substrate to light from a deep ultraviolet laser. By using a wavelength readily absorbed by the piezoelectric substrate, a relatively shallow marking may be made in the piezoelectric substrate. The markings may extend less than 1 micrometer into the piezoelectric substrate, and do not affect the structural integrity of the piezoelectric substrate or the operation of the packaged surface acoustic wave device.
