Packaged semiconductor device with multilayer stress buffer

Abstract:

In a described example, a packaged semiconductor device includes: a semiconductor die with a component proximate to a surface of the semiconductor die; the semiconductor die mounted on a substrate. The component is covered with a first polymer layer with a first modulus and at least a portion of the first polymer layer is covered by at least one second polymer layer with a second modulus and the second modulus is greater than the first modulus. The semiconductor die and a portion of the substrate are covered with mold compound.
