Abstract
The present invention provides a surface acoustic wave (SAW) circuit package including: (1) a substantially planar piezoelectric substrate having an active surface, (2) an electronic circuit located over the active surface, (3) an encapsulant substrate having a bonding surface and (4) a bonding material interposing and creating a hermetic seal between the active surface and the bonding surface and around a void between the piezoelectric substrate and the encapsulant substrate. In one embodiment, the void has lateral dimensions at least equaling a footprint of the electronic circuit.
