A semiconductor package includes a substrate, a stiffener ring coupled to the substrate and configured to form a well with the substrate, and a die positioned in the well. A thermal interface is positioned on the die. A heat spreader is coupled to the stiffener ring so that a portion of the heat spreader is positioned in the well and the thermal interface thermally couples the heat spreader to the die. The portion of the heat spreader positioned in the well adds rigidity to the semiconductor package and facilitates the use of thin dies.

A camera module lens cap is provided to protect a camera module in a mobile device where the camera module is exposed. The camera module lens cap includes an optically transparent member for positioning adjacent a camera lens, and a housing for carrying the optically transparent member. The housing includes an overhanging lip for engaging a base of the camera module.

A method is described for fixing a lens of an optical group with respect to an optical sensor in an image acquisition device comprising the steps of housing the optical sensor in a housing, fixing a lower holder of the optical group to the housing, aligning an upper holder of the optical group, wherein the lens is placed, with the sensor so as to align a focusing point of the lens with respect to the sensor, welding the upper holder to the lower holder. The welding step may be performed by means of ultrasounds.
