Patent ID: 8441132

Claim:
A microelectronic device package, comprising: a first member comprising a first conductive material, a second conductive material, and a first insulating material sandwiched between the first conductive material and the second conductive material, wherein the first member has a first cavity portion extending directly through apertures in first conductive material, the first insulating material, and the second conductive material; a second member comprising a third conductive material, a fourth conductive material, and a second insulating material sandwiched between the third conductive material and the fourth conductive material, wherein the second member has a second cavity portion extending directly through apertures in the third conductive material and the second insulating material but not through the fourth conductive material, wherein the fourth conductive material is contiguous, wherein the fourth conductive material forms a closed end of the second cavity portion, and wherein the sandwich construction of the first member is oriented in a generally stacked arrangement relative to the sandwich construction of the second member; an intermediate member between the first member and the second member, the intermediate member having an opening generally aligned with the first and second cavity portions, wherein the first cavity of the first member, the opening of the intermediate member and the second cavity of the second member are generally aligned; and a microelectronic device having a first side and a second side opposite from the first side, the second side carried by the fourth conductive material of the second member at least partially within the second cavity portion, wherein the microelectronic device has bond sites on the first side, wherein the bond sites are electrically coupled to the fourth conductive material.
