Abstract
Methods of manufacturing a sealed electrical device for embedded integrated circuit (IC) chips are described, as well as the resulting devices themselves. The sealed electrical device is created by removing material from a substrate to form a pocket in the substrate. An unencapsulated, or bare, IC chip can be placed within the pocket with connection pads of the IC chip facing outward. A gap between the IC chip and a side of the pocket can be filled with a filler. An uncured polymer can be cast over the substrate, which can be allowed to cure into a flat polymer sheet. Conductive traces can be patterned on the polymer sheet and to the connection pads of the IC chip. The conductive traces can then be coated with polymer to form a ribbon cable. Substrate can then be removed from underneath the ribbon cable, leaving substrate around the pocket to protect the IC chip.
