Abstract

An integrated device package is disclosed. The integrated device package can include an integrated device die, an element, a cavity, and an electrical interconnect. The element can have an antenna structure. The element can be attached to a surface of the integrated device. The cavity can be disposed between the integrated device die and the antenna structure. The electrical interconnect can connect the integrated device die and the antenna structure.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. An integrated device package comprising:
an integrated device die;
an element comprising an antenna structure, the element attached to a surface of the integrated device die, the element directly bonded to the surface of the integrated device die without an intervening adhesive;
a cavity disposed between the integrated device die and at least a portion of the antenna structure; and
an electrical interconnect connecting the integrated device die and the antenna structure.

2. The integrated device package of claim 1 , wherein at least a portion of the integrated device die defines a majority of a bottom surface of the cavity.

3. The integrated device package of claim 1 , wherein the element comprises silicon or glass.

4. The integrated device package of claim 1 , wherein the integrated device die comprises radio-frequency (RF) circuitry.

5. The integrated device package of claim 1 , wherein the cavity is defined by the element and the integrated device die.

6. The integrated device package of claim 1 , wherein the cavity is defined by a planar upper surface of the integrated device die and a recess in the element, or a planar surface of the element and a recess in the integrated device die.

7. The integrated device package of claim 1 , wherein the element comprises a plurality of frame portions bonded together.

8. The integrated device package of claim 1 , wherein the electrical interconnect is directly and electrically connected to the device die.

9. The integrated device package of claim 1 , wherein the cavity is filled with air.

10. The integrated device package of claim 1 , wherein the cavity comprises a first wall having a wall surface indicative of an etching process.

11. The integrated device package of claim 1 , wherein the cavity comprises a first wall and a second wall, the first wall and the second wall comprising two opposing sides of the cavity, the cavity having a width from the first wall to the second wall, the width being dimensioned to receive or transmit electromagnetic radiation at a frequency in a range of 24 GHz to 128 GHz, wherein the width is in a range of 0.5 mm to 12 mm.

12. The integrated device package of claim 1 , wherein a wall of the cavity is constructed such that a surface roughness of the wall has a maximum roughness in a range of 0.1 μm to 2 μm.

13. The integrated device package of claim 1 , wherein the antenna structure is disposed on or near an upper surface of the cavity, or on or near a top surface of the element away from the cavity.

14. The integrated device package of claim 1 , wherein the antenna structure comprises a parasitic patch and a feed patch.

15. An integrated device package comprising:
a package housing comprising a semiconductor material, the package housing comprising:
an integrated device;
an antenna structure directly bonded to the integrated device without an intervening adhesive; and
a cavity disposed between the integrated device and at least a portion of the antenna structure; and

an electrical interconnect connecting the integrated device and the antenna structure.

16. The integrated device package of claim 15 , wherein the semiconductor material comprises silicon.

17. The integrated device package of claim 15 , wherein the cavity is formed by etching the semiconductor material.
