  • Publication number: 20220149099
    Abstract: To eliminate influence caused by a difference in coefficient of linear expansion between a substrate and another material, and to secure a stable mounting structure of a semiconductor element. A semiconductor device includes a glass substrate and the semiconductor element. The glass substrate includes a through hole that penetrates front and back surfaces. Furthermore, the glass substrate includes a stepped portion on an outer periphery of the through hole. The semiconductor element is joined to the stepped portion of the glass substrate. For example, in a case where an imaging element is used as the semiconductor element, image quality of an image obtained by imaging is improved by preventing defocus of light incident on the imaging element.

  • Publication number: 20220102230
    Abstract: Provided is a protection structure that appropriately protects a side surface of a glass substrate in a semiconductor module. A semiconductor module is provided with a glass substrate. The glass substrate is provided with a plurality of straight line portions and a corner portion interposed between the straight line portions on a side surface thereof. A protective material is formed on at least a part of the side surface of the glass substrate. The corner portion of the glass substrate is located on an inner side of a straight line connecting ridges of protective materials formed on the straight line portions (a center side of the glass substrate). Therefore, the corner portion is protected against an impact on the side surface of the glass substrate.

  • Patent number: 9513182
    Abstract: A pressure sensor includes: a sensor section having one fixed end and first to four gauge resistors arranged on a diaphragm; and a support member fixing the sensor section. A first pair to fourth pair of piezoresistive elements are arranged on the diaphragm. Two piezoresistive elements of each pair have opposite resistance value change directions, and distances to the support member are equal to each other. A distances between each piezoresistive element of the third pair and the fourth pair and the support member is longer than a distance between each piezoresistive element of the first pair and the second pair and the support member. Each gauge resistor includes a combined resistance, which is provided by serially connecting two corresponding piezoresistive elements. The two corresponding piezoresistive elements have a same resistance value change direction.
