Abstract:
1. A method of producing a modular arrangement for shielding semiconductors from external electromagnetic interference, said method comprising: providing a substrate consisting of a laminated dielectric material; locating a die comprising a semiconductor chip above said substrate; arranging electrical interconnects between said substrate and said die so as to form connections between electrical components on respectively said substrate and said die; superimposing a one-piece lid constituted of an electrically conductive material over said die in spaced relationship therewith; positioning a lid bond structure between said lid and said substrate in a region surrounding said die; locating a conductive shield so as to form a barrier to electromagnetic interference externally of said lid bond, forming a closed or partially closed structure surrounding the periphery of said lid and depending towards said substrate; and providing an adhesive conducting material sealingly between said lid edge and the surface of said substrate in sealing contact with the interior of said shield, so as to conjointly form a Faraday Cage to constitute said shielding arrangement inhibiting the passage of electromagnetic interference between said substrate and said die.
