Abstract:

According to various aspects and embodiments, a support structure for packaging an electronic device is provided. In one example, a packaged electronic device includes a substrate, at least one electronic device disposed on the substrate, an encapsulation structure disposed on the substrate and having a wall that forms a perimeter around the at least one electronic device, and at least one support structure formed from a photosensitive polymer and disposed adjacent the wall of the encapsulation structure. The at least one support structure has a configuration that provides at least one of increased adhesion and mechanical strength to the encapsulation structure.
