Abstract
ABSTRACTWafer level chip size packages (WL-CSP) have been successfully fabricated for bulk acoustic wave (BAW) filters. WL-CSP has been completed at the wafer level prior to dicing. Two silicon wafers are used as a die and a lid for chip size packaging. Both device and lid wafers have the same expansion coefficient and the package is strong enough to withstand the thermal stress. The package has a hermetic seal with copper-tin intermetallic bonding. The bonded wafers are then thinned by grinding. Via holes are formed by reactive ion etching (RIE) and filled by copper electroplating. The package has solder bumps on each terminal, ready for flip-chip assembly. We have succeeded to produce CSP-BAW filters with a hermetically sealed cavity, which is 840 micrometers squared and 280 micrometers in height including solder bumps.
