Patents by Inventor Russell Scott Shumway

Russell Scott Shumway 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).

  • Patent number: 9758372
    Abstract: A method includes mounting a window substrate to a carrier tape. The window substrate has a window extending between an upper surface of the window substrate and a lower surface of the window substrate, the carrier tape sealing the window at the lower surface. Bond pads on an active surface of a MEMS die are flip chip mounted to terminals on the upper surface of the window substrate, a MEMS active area of the MEMS die being aligned with the window of the window substrate. A magnet is mounted to an inactive surface of the MEMS die.

  • Patent number: 9670445
    Abstract: A microfluidics sensor package includes a microfluidics sensor die having an active surface, bond pads on the active surface, and an active area on the active surface. A standoff pattern is formed on the active surface to extend to a precise height above the active surface. A lid is mounted to the standoff pattern by a lid adhesive. By using the standoff pattern to precisely space the lid above the active surface, a microfluidics cavity between the lid and the active surface is precisely created allowing for precise control of fluid flowing through the microfluidics cavity. By precisely controlling the flow of fluid through the microfluidics cavity, accurate results, e.g., of the laboratory functions performed on the fluid, are provided.

  • Patent number: 9346668
    Abstract: Methods and systems for a molded cavity substrate Micro Electro Mechanical Systems (MEMS) package may comprise a MEMS electronic component, a base substrate comprising a first conductive through via, a molded ring coupled to the base substrate, and a lid substrate comprising dielectric material and a metal layer. The molded ring comprises a second conductive through via and a molded cavity, and the MEMS electronic component is located within the molded cavity. The base substrate may comprise a laminate substrate. The lid substrate may comprise a cavity port. A base assembly mounting adhesive may couple an inner surface of the lid to a principal surface of the molded ring. The dielectric material may comprise mold material. The molded ring may comprise mold compound adherent to an outer region of an inner surface of the base substrate with a central region of the base substrate exposed by the molded ring.

  • Patent number: 9029962
    Abstract: A molded ring includes a molded cavity of a molded cavity substrate MEMS package. The molded ring is formed by molding a dielectric material directly upon a substrate. As molding is a relatively simple and low cost process, the molded ring and thus molded cavity are formed at a minimal cost. This, in turn, minimizes the cost of the molded cavity substrate MEMS package.
