Patent ID: 7979045

Claim:
A GNSS receiver package with a plurality of bare dies, comprising: an analog die for converting an analog input signal to a complex analog output signal centered at an intermediate frequency, the analog die including: at least one analog signal input; at least two signal outputs; a complex analog mixer; and a pair of low pass filters, each low pass filter connected to at least one of the signal outputs; a digital die for deriving from the complex analog output signal a plurality of digital output signals, the digital die including: a number of signal inputs corresponding to the number of signal outputs of the analog die, each of the signal inputs connected to one of the signal outputs of the analog die; analog-to-digital converters for converting the complex analog output signal of the analog die to a complex digital signal, the analog-to-digital converters being connected to the signal inputs; a complex digital mixer and a notch filter, that follow the analog-to-digital converters, for suppressing jamming signals concentrated at at least one narrow frequency band; and a digital processing unit, that follows the complex digital mixer and the notch filter, for analyzing the signal by isolating and processing GNSS signals emitted by individual GNSS satellites, the digital processing unit being connected to several signal outputs for outputting the digital output signals; a support having a plate, the plate having electrically conductive material and having an upper side that carries the plurality of dies; pins arranged at a distance along a boundary of the plate for electrically connecting the package to outside components, the analog input of the analog die and the signal outputs of the digital die each being electrically connected to at least one of the pins, the electrical connections of any one of the plurality of dies being established by at least one bond wire connecting a pad on the die either to some other pad, or to one of the pins, or to the plate; and a plastic mold which covers at least the upper side of the plate, encapsulates the plurality of dies and the bond wires, and partially encapsulates each of the pins.
