MEMS (Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems) packaging technology refers to packaging micro-electro-mechanical system chips in one of the materials to provide electrical connection, mechanical protection and environmental isolation. With the continuous development of MEMS technology and the widespread application of MEMS, MEMS packaging technology has also been greatly improved and innovated.
The development of MEMS packaging technology can be divided into three stages: traditional packaging, no packaging and integrated packaging.
Traditional packaging mainly uses target manufacturing packaging (Chip on Board) and flip chip. The goal is to connect MEMS chips to other devices to achieve electrical and mechanical connections. However, traditional packaging has some problems, such as excessive size, low precision and high cost. In order to solve these problems, packaging-free technology emerged.
Package-free technology uses more sophisticated manufacturing techniques and advanced packaging materials to achieve smaller, more precise and higher-performance packaging.
There are three main types of packaging-free technologies: LTCC packaging, LGA packaging and CSP packaging.
LTCC packaging has good electrical and mechanical performance and is suitable for high-frequency and high-speed applications.
LGA packaging uses a flexible substrate to achieve multi-chip packaging and high-density integration.
CSP packaging is a compact package suitable for small mobile devices.
Integrated packaging technology is also an important development direction of MEMS packaging technology. Integrated packaging technology refers to integrating MEMS chips and other electronic devices (such as radio frequency components, power amplifiers, etc.) on the same chip to achieve more powerful and compact packaging.
Integrated packaging technology is also an important development direction of MEMS packaging technology. Integrated packaging technology refers to integrating MEMS chips and other electronic devices (such as radio frequency components, power amplifiers, etc.) on the same chip to achieve more powerful and compact packaging.
There are two main types of integrated packaging technologies: OLP packaging and SiP packaging.
OLP packaging uses photolithography technology to create protective films and circuits on a silicon substrate, and then integrates MEMS chips into it. This packaged pipe offers the advantages of small size, high reliability and high operating frequency, making it suitable for wireless communications and sensing applications.
SiP packaging integrates MEMS chips and other chips (such as processors, memories, etc.) into the same package to form a package with multiple functions. SiP packages offer advanced processing capabilities, lower power consumption and smaller size for fast and versatile applications.
MEMS packaging technology has a wide range of applications. Among the most common applications are sensors and actuators. MEMS sensors can measure and detect physical and chemical parameters in the environment, such as temperature, pressure, humidity, acceleration, etc. MEMS actuators can control and operate mechanical and electronic devices. These sensors and actuators are widely used in automobiles, smartphones, medical equipment and other fields, providing solutions with higher precision, higher efficiency and lower power consumption. In addition, MEMS packaging technology is also used in biomedicine, aerospace, industrial automation and other fields, providing important support for the development of these fields.

With the continuous development of MEMS technology and the widespread application of MEMS, MEMS packaging technology is also constantly innovating and improving. Package-free technology and integrated packaging technology provide smaller, more precise and higher-performance solutions for MEMS packaging. MEMS packaging technology is also widely used, mainly in fields such as sensors and actuators, and plays an important role in improving product performance and user experience. With the continuous advancement of technology and the continuous expansion of applications, it is believed that MEMS packaging technology will be more widely used and developed.
