Abstract
An embodiment of a packaged device includes first and second package leads, a first integrated circuit (IC) die, and a sub-assembly that includes a second IC die coupled to a substrate. The first IC die has a first coil, and the second IC die has a second coil. The first and second IC die are arranged within the device so that the first and second coils are aligned with each other across a gap between the first and second IC die, and the first and second IC die are galvanically isolated from each other. The first IC die is electrically coupled to the first package lead (e.g., with a wirebond), and a substrate bond pad is electrically coupled to the second package lead (e.g., with a wirebond). The sub-assembly also may include encapsulation at least over a wirebond that electrically couples the second IC die to the substrate.
