Bending a circuit-bearing die

Abstract:

An image sensor device includes a substrate, a die, and an adhesive layer positioned between the substrate and the die. The substrate includes a first side having a curved surface. The die includes an image sensor component attached to the curved surface of the substrate. At least a portion of the die comprising the image sensor component has a curved surface. The adhesive layer positioned between the curved surface of the substrate and the die provides a fixed attachment between the die and the substrate.
