Patent 7910404 was granted and assigned to Infineon Technologies on March, 2011 by the United States Patent and Trademark Office.
A method of manufacturing a stacked die module includes applying a plurality of stacked die structures to a carrier. Each stacked die structure includes a first semiconductor die applied to the carrier and a second semiconductor die stacked over the first semiconductor die. The second semiconductor die has a larger lateral surface area than the first semiconductor die. A dam is applied around each of the stacked die structures, thereby forming an enclosed cavity for each of the stacked die structures. The enclosed cavity for each stacked die structure surrounds the first semiconductor die of the stacked die structure.
