Abstract

In MEMS, packaging induced stress or stress induced structure deformation becomes increasing concerns since it directly affects the performance of the device. The conventional MEMS SOI (silicon-on-insulator) gyroscope, packaged using the anodic bonding at the wafer level and EMC (epoxy molding compound) molding, has a deformation of MEMS structure caused by thermal expansion mismatch. Therefore we propose a packaged SiOG (Silicon On Glass) process technology and more robust spring design.
