Granted: January 2, 2007
Patent Number: 7157742
An integrally packaged optronic integrated circuit device (310) including an integrated circuit die (322) containing at least one of a radiation emitter and radiation receiver and having top and bottom surfaces formed of electrically insulative and mechanically protective material, at least one of the surfaces (317) being transparent to radiation, and electrically insulative edge surfaces (314) having pads.

Methods for producing packaged integrated circuit devices and packaged integrated circuit devices produced

Granted: December 5, 2006
Patent Number: 7144745
A method of producing a crystalline substrate based device includes forming a microstructure on a crystalline substrate. At least one packaging layer is sealed over the microstructure by an adhesive and defines therewith at least one gap between the crystalline substrate and the at least one packaging layer.
