Patent attributes
An image sensor chip-scale package includes a pixel array, a cover glass covering the pixel array, a dam, and an adhesive layer. The pixel array is embedded in a substrate top-surface of a semiconductor substrate. The semiconductor substrate includes a plurality of conductive pads in a peripheral region of the semiconductor substrate surrounding the pixel array. The dam at least partially surrounds the pixel array and is located (i) between the cover glass and the semiconductor substrate, and (ii) on a region of the substrate top-surface between the pixel array and the plurality of conductive pads. The adhesive layer is (i) located between the cover glass and the semiconductor substrate, (ii) at least partially surrounding the dam, and (iii) configured to adhere the cover glass to the semiconductor substrate.
