DEVICES RELATED TO SHIELDED RADIO-FREQUENCY MODULES HAVING REDUCED AREA

Abstract:

Shielded radio-frequency (RF) module having reduced area. In some embodiments, an RF module can include a packaging substrate configured to receive a plurality of components, and a plurality of shielding wirebonds implemented on the packaging substrate and configured to provide RF shielding functionality for one or more regions on the packaging substrate. The packaging substrate can include a first area associated with implementation of each shielding wirebond. The RF module can further include one or more devices mounted on the packaging substrate. The packaging substrate can further include a second area associated with mounting of each of the one or more devices. Each device can be mounted with respect to a corresponding shielding wirebond such that the second area associated with the device overlaps at least partially with the first area associated with the corresponding shielding wirebond.
