ABSTRACT:
A flat filter layer is received between upper and lower mold portions of a mold for packaging an integrated circuit sensor device, held by the mold over and in contact with the integrated circuit's sensing surface, in light compression between the sensing surface and a mold surface. The filter layer includes slots allowing passage of injected encapsulating material to cover the integrated circuit die, with overlap portions embedded in the encapsulating material, while preventing such encapsulating material from flowing onto the sensing surface. The filter layer may be, for example, a liquid and/or light filter, and may include a protective or supportive backing. The filter is thus affixed to the packaged integrated circuit sensor device, while mold residue is reduced and mold life extended.
