A fingerprint sensing module comprising a fingerprint sensor device having a sensing array arranged on a first side of the device, the sensing array comprising an array of fingerprint sensing elements. The fingerprint sensor device comprises connection pads for connecting to external circuitry. The fingerprint sensing module further comprises a fingerprint sensor device cover structure, arranged to cover the fingerprint sensor device, having a first side configured to be touched by a finger, thereby forming a sensing surface of the sensing module, and a second side facing the sensing array, wherein the cover structure comprises conductive traces for electrically connecting the fingerprint sensor module to external circuitry, and wherein a surface area of the cover structure is larger than a surface area of the sensor device. The fingerprint sensor device comprises wire-bonds electrically connecting the connection pads of the fingerprint sensing device to the conductive traces of the cover structure.

A semiconductor assembly comprises a package, which in turn comprises at least one substrate, a first die stacked onto the substrate, at least one further die stacked onto the first die, at least one heat spreader in the package, and TSV:s extending through the stacked dies. The ends of the TSV:s are exposed at the further die.

Thermal package with heat slug for die stacks

A package-on-package stack may include an upper package, an optical interface, and a lower package. The upper package may send an optical signal from a first component in the upper package. The optical interface may receive the optical signal from the upper package, and may transmit the optical signal. The lower package may receive the optical signal from the optical interface, and may relay the optical signal to a second component in the lower package or at the motherboard.
