Michele Berry has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Publication number: 20050275094
    Abstract: Solder joints coupling pins to a microelectronic package substrate are enshrouded with an encapsulation material. In this manner, pin movement is limited even if the pin solder subsequently melts.
    Type: Application

  • Publication number: 20050062120
    Abstract: A MEMS device may be formed in a hermetic cavity by sealing a pair of semiconductor structures to one another, enclosing the MEMS device. The two structures may be coupled using surface mount techniques as one example, so that the temperatures utilized may be compatible with many MEMS applications. Electrical interconnection layers in one or the other of these structures may be utilized to allow electrical interconnections from the exterior world to the MEMS components within the cavity.
    Type: Application
