A semiconductor device, comprising:
- a circuit board;
- a packaging structure disposed over and bonded to the circuit board;
- and
- a microelectromechanical system (MEMS) structure disposed over and bonded to the packaging structure and including a movable element,
- wherein the movable element is movable relative to the packaging structure and the circuit board upon an operation of the packaging structure.
2 more elements
A semiconductor device, comprising:
- a chip;
- and
- an actuating structure, mounted over the chip, wherein the actuating structure includes:
- a cavity;
- and
- a movable element, disposed over the cavity, wherein
