Abstract
An electronic device includes a substrate, an optical sensor coupled to the substrate, and an optical emitter coupled to the substrate. A lens is aligned with the optical emitter and includes an upper surface and an encapsulation bleed stop groove around the upper surface. An encapsulation material is coupled to the substrate and includes first and second encapsulation openings therethrough aligned with the optical sensor and the lens, respectively.
