Patent ID: 7443038

Claim:
An electronic device package comprising: a glass substrate; a pattern of metal traces disposed on a surface of the glass substrate, each metal trace of the pattern of metal traces extending between a first attachment point and a second attachment point; at least one light-sensitive device having a first surface and a second, opposing surface, the first surface including sensing circuitry, the at least one light-sensitive device mounted to the glass substrate with conductive bumps mounted between the first attachment point of a metal trace of the pattern of metal traces and the first surface of the at least one light-sensitive device, wherein the conductive bumps have a thickness providing a gap between the first surface of the at least one light-sensitive device and the surface of the glass substrate; a polymer sealant material contacting the first surface of the at least one light-sensitive device and the surface of the glass substrate to seal a volume including the sensing circuitry between a portion of the first surface of the at least one light-sensitive device and the surface of the glass substrate from the outside environment, the polymer sealant material extending from the surface of the glass substrate to a location not beyond the second surface of the light-sensitive device; and a discrete conductive element attached to the second attachment point of the metal trace, the discrete conductive element extending outwardly from the second attachment point in a direction perpendicular to a plane of the surface of the glass substrate and to a distance beyond the second, opposing surface of the at least one light-sensitive device.
