Abstract
Embodiments of a method for packaging cMUT arrays allow packaging multiple cMUT arrays on the same packaging substrate introduced over a side of the cMUT arrays. The packaging substrate is a dielectric layer on which openings are patterned for depositing a conductive layer to connect a cMUT array to VO pads interfacing with external devices. Auxiliary system components may be packaged together with the cMUT arrays. Multiple cMUT arrays and optionally multiple auxiliary system components can be held in place by a larger support structure for batch production. The support structure can be made of an arbitrary size using inexpensive materials.
