Abstract
Methods and apparatus for integrating a CMOS image sensor and an image signal processor (ISP) together using an interposer to form a system in package device module are disclosed. The device module may comprise an interposer with a substrate. An interposer contact is formed within the substrate. A sensor device may be bonded to a surface of the interposer, wherein a sensor contact is bonded to a first end of the interposer contact. An ISP may be connected to the interposer, by bonding an ISP contact in the ISP to a second end of the interposer contact. An underfill layer may fill a gap between the interposer and the ISP. A printed circuit board (PCB) may further be connected to the interposer by way of a solder ball connected to another interposer contact. A thermal interface material may be in contact with the ISP and the PCB.
