Pressure sensors on flexible substrates for stress decoupling

Abstract

A semiconductor device includes a semiconductor chip including a chip substrate and a MEMS element, wherein the chip substrate includes a first surface and a second surface arranged opposite to the first surface, and wherein the MEMS element is disposed at the first surface of the chip substrate and the MEMS element includes a sensitive area; at least one electrical interconnect structure electrically connected to the first surface of the chip substrate; a chip carrier electrically connected to the at least one electrical interconnect structure; a flexible film provided over the second surface of the chip substrate to form a pocket in which the semiconductor chip resides; and a compressible material arranged between the second surface of the chip substrate and the flexible film.
