  • Publication number: 20240194591
    Abstract: A package structure includes a thermal dissipation structure including a substrate, a first encapsulant laterally covering the substrate, a die disposed on the substrate and including a sensing region, a second encapsulant laterally covering the die, and a redistribution structure disposed on the die and the second encapsulant. An outer sidewall of the second encapsulant is laterally offset from an outer sidewall of the first encapsulant. The die is electrically coupled to the substrate through the redistribution structure, and the redistribution structure includes a hollow region overlying the sensing region of the die.

  • Patent number: 11978740
    Abstract: A layer stack including a first bonding dielectric material layer, a dielectric metal oxide layer, and a second bonding dielectric material layer is formed over a top surface of a substrate including a substrate semiconductor layer. A conductive material layer is formed by depositing a conductive material over the second bonding dielectric material layer. The substrate semiconductor layer is thinned by removing portions of the substrate semiconductor layer that are distal from the layer stack, whereby a remaining portion of the substrate semiconductor layer includes a top semiconductor layer. A semiconductor device may be formed on the top semiconductor layer.

  • Patent number: 11961777
    Abstract: A package structure and a method of forming the same are provided. The package structure includes a first die, a second die, a first encapsulant, and a buffer layer. The first die and the second die are disposed side by side. The first encapsulant encapsulates the first die and the second die. The second die includes a die stack encapsulated by a second encapsulant encapsulating a die stack. The buffer layer is disposed between the first encapsulant and the second encapsulant and covers at least a sidewall of the second die and disposed between the first encapsulant and the second encapsulant. The buffer layer has a Young's modulus less than a Young's modulus of the first encapsulant and a Young's modulus of the second encapsulant.

  • Patent number: 11929318
    Abstract: A package structure includes a thermal dissipation structure, a first encapsulant, a die, a through integrated fan-out via (TIV), a second encapsulant, and a redistribution layer (RDL) structure. The thermal dissipation structure includes a substrate and a first conductive pad disposed over the substrate. The first encapsulant laterally encapsulates the thermal dissipation structure. The die is disposed on the thermal dissipation structure. The TIV lands on the first conductive pad of the thermal dissipation structure and is laterally aside the die. The second encapsulant laterally encapsulates the die and the TIV. The RDL structure is disposed on the die and the second encapsulant.

  • Patent number: 8651437
    Abstract: A pivoting assembly with a positioning function includes a base and a casing assembled with the base. The base is provided with curved elastic arms and two fixing supports. Each fixing support has a pivotal hole. One surface of the casing is formed with a curved portion for allowing the curved elastic arm to abut against and two holes for allowing the fixing support to pass through. The other surface of the casing is formed with a protrusion pivotally connected to the pivotal hole. When the curved portion slides on the curved elastic arm, elastic abutment between the curved portion and the curved elastic arm makes the casing to be positioned by friction fit with respect to the base.
