Abstract
An optical package containing optical sensor/detector pairs co-housed with a non-optical sensor and processes for fabricating the optical package are described herein. Traditional package structures require the use of clear mold compounds to protect the sensitive dies, but such compounds degrade with time and temperature. The optical package described herein uses a special glass top cover that is transparent in the entire electro-magnetic spectral region required by the contained dies.
