Claim Text:
1. A MEMS lead frame package for mounting on a circuit board, the package comprising: a lead frame comprising a bottom aperture, and a plurality of internal bond pads; a mold body, the mold body having an aperture surface on a first side of the mold body, and a connector surface on a second side of the mold body, the second side being opposite the first side, the mold body forming a cavity extending into the connector surface, the mold body partially encapsulating the lead frame such that the plurality of internal bond pads are exposed in the cavity, and a bottom aperture is exposed at the aperture surface; a conductive shell having an acoustic aperture and a connection window, the conductive shell electrically coupled to the lead frame and residing within the cavity such that the acoustic aperture aligns with the bottom aperture, and such that the connection window aligns with the plurality of internal bond pads; a MEMS device mounted to the conductive shell, and electrically coupled to the plurality of internal bond pads through a plurality of wire bonds; a cover physically coupled to the connector surface so as to completely cover the conductive shell, the cover and the conductive shell forming a chamber within the mold body and surrounding the microphone; a plurality of conductive bumps on the connector surface, each of the conductive bumps spaced apart from the cover, the conductive bumps extending above the cover; and a plurality of through mold vias, each of the plurality of through mold vias coupled to the lead frame and a corresponding one of the conductive bumps.
