Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A MEMS package includes a MEMS chip, a package substrate which the MEMS chip is adhered and a thin-film filter which is adhered to the package substrate or the MEMS chip. The thin-film filter includes a thin-film part having a film surface and a rear film surface arranged a rear side of the film surface, and a plurality of through holes being formed to penetrate the thin-film part from the film surface to the rear film surface. The through holes are formed in an adhesive region of the thin-film part. The adhesive region is adhered to the package substrate or the MEMS chip.
