Abstract
A stacked image sensor package contains an image sensor chip and a peripheral chip. A support pad for the peripheral chip adheres to a top surface of the peripheral chip, eliminating the need for a support member that otherwise would contribute to the thickness of the package. Thermal dissipation is enhanced by exposing surfaces including a back surface of the peripheral chip.
