  • Publication number: 20250199414
    Abstract: Microelectromechanical device with a carrier substrate having a substrate surface (100a), and plural MEMS modules (120. Each module includes an ASIC layer (140) having a front side (140a) and a rear side (140b). A baseplate (160) has a front side (160a) and a rear side (160b), a plurality of microelectromechanical components (130) have rear sides (130b). The baseplate rear side is cohesively connected to the ASIC layer front side with electrical contacts (144). The components are arranged on the baseplate front side with their component rear sides. The contacts are partly encompassed by a frame (195) arranged between baseplate and ASIC layer. The ASIC layer has an ASIC controlling the components. The ASIC is electrically connected to the components using a portion of the contacts. The modules are arranged on the substrate surface and the ASIC layer rear sides of the modules are connected to the substrate surface.

  • Patent number: 12195330
    Abstract: A method for producing a plurality of sensor devices. The method includes: furnishing a substrate having contact points in a plurality of predetermined regions for sensor chips; disposing the sensor chips in the predetermined regions on the substrate, and electrically contacting the sensor chips to the contact points; attaching a frame structure with an adhesive material on the substrate and between the sensor chips, the frame structure proceeding laterally around the sensor chips, the frame structure extending, after attachment, vertically beyond the sensor chips and forming a respective cavity for at least one of the sensor chips, and a membrane spanning at least one of the cavities for the sensor chips so as to cover it; and singulating the substrate, or the frame structure and the substrate, around the respective cavities into several sensor devices.

  • Publication number: 20240300807
    Abstract: A micromechanical component having a printed circuit board with a main extension plane, having an ASIC chip and a MEMS chip, which are arranged parallel to the main extension plane, wherein the ASIC chip is arranged above the printed circuit board, and the MEMS chip is arranged above the ASIC chip, wherein the ASIC chip is electrically contacted to the printed circuit board in a bonding region by bonding wires. An adapter chip is arranged between the ASIC chip and the MEMS chip, which adapter chip at least partially covers the bonding region in a z-direction perpendicular to the main extension plane. A method for producing a micromechanical component is also described.
