Patent ID: 8592241

Claim:
A method for packaging an electronic device assembly, the method comprising: placing a micro-electromechanical sensor (MEMS) device in a first area for the electronic device assembly; placing an electronic device in a second area for the electronic device assembly; placing one or more bond pads in a third area for the electronic device assembly; electrically coupling an electrical contact of the MEMS device and a bond pad of the one or more bond pads; forming an encapsulant over and around sides of the MEMS device, the electronic device, the one or more bond pads, and the electrical coupling between the MEMS device and the bond pad; exposing a first side of the electronic device assembly after said forming the encapsulant, wherein the first side comprises the bond pad and an electrical contact of the electronic device; and forming, after said exposing, an interconnect structure on the first side of the electronic device assembly, wherein the interconnect structure couples the bond pad to the electrical contact of the electronic device.
