For example, "connected" can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection, or it can be indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, or it can be the internal communication of two components. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present utility model can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0025] Example 1

[0026] See also Figure 1 to Figure 2 , the utility model provides a technical solution:

[0027] A MEMS product packaging structure includes a circuit board 1, a shell 2 is installed above the circuit board 1, a cavity 3 is provided inside the shell 2, an ASIC chip 4 is installed in the cavity 3, a gold wire 6 is connected to the right end of the ASIC chip 4, and the other end of the gold wire 6 is connected to the MEMS chip 7. The shell 2 removes the R angle 9 (thus becoming a right angle a) and is flush with the circuit board 1.

[0028] In the specific implementation process, Figure 1 As shown, the ASIC chip 4 is bonded on the circuit board 1 by a sealant 5 .

[0029] It should be noted that the ASIC chip 4 is bonded to the top of the circuit board 1 by the sealant 5 , and the sealant 5 will firmly bond the ASIC chip 4 together.

[0030] In the specific implementation process, Figure 1 As shown, the housing 2 and the circuit board 1 are tightly bonded by a sealant 5 .

[0031] It should be noted that the housing 2 and the circuit board 1 are tightly bonded by the sealant 5. The sealant 5 firmly bonds the contact area between the housing 2 and the circuit board 1 so that no gap will appear, and the sound insulation effect is better.

[0032] In the specific implementation process, Figure 1 As shown, the MEMS chip 7 and the ASIC chip 4 are electrically connected to the circuit board 1 via gold wires 6 respectively.

[0033] It should be noted that the MEMS chip 7 and the ASIC chip 4 are electrically connected to the circuit board 1 through gold wires 6 respectively, and the gold wires 6 enable them to better transmit and convert signals.

[0034] Example 2

[0035] It is basically the same as Example 1, with the following slight differences:

[0036] In the specific implementation process, Figure 3-5 As shown, a noise reduction mechanism 8 is installed above the shell 2 , and the noise reduction mechanism 8 includes a sound hole 81 installed above the shell 2 , a buffer cavity 82 is installed below the sound hole 81 , and a partition plate 83 is installed below the buffer cavity 82 .

[0037] It should be noted that a sound hole 81 is installed above the shell 2, and a buffer cavity 82 is installed below the sound hole 81, and a partition 83 is installed below the buffer cavity 82. When external sound enters the sound hole 81, the sound will be buffered and dissipated in the buffer cavity 82, and the partition 83 effectively prevents the sound from directly impacting the cavity 3; the cover plate 83 also has the effect of dustproof and waterproof to prevent the airflow from directly impacting the MEMS chip 7 and the ASIC chip 4, plays a protective role, effectively reduces the damage rate of the MEMS chip 7 and the ASIC chip 4, and prolongs the service life.

[0038] In the specific implementation process, Figure 1 As shown, three sound holes 81 are provided and installed above the housing 2 .

[0039] like Figure 1 As shown, the R angle of the housing 2 can also be removed while removing the corner b of the housing.

[0040] It should be noted that three sound holes 81 are provided and installed above the housing 2 . Providing three sound holes 81 can effectively reduce the signal-to-noise ratio.

[0041] In the specific implementation process, Figure 1The material used for the shell 2 shown can also be a noise reduction material.

[0042] The working principle of this embodiment is as follows: during specific use, when external sound enters the sound hole 81, the sound will be buffered and dissipated in the buffer cavity 82, and the partition 83 effectively keeps the sound from directly impacting the cavity 3; the cover plate 83 also has the effect of dustproof and waterproof to prevent the airflow from directly impacting the MEMS chip 7 and the ASIC chip 4, and plays a protective role, effectively reducing the damage rate of the MEMS chip 7 and the ASIC chip 4, and extending the service life. The sealant 5 will firmly bond the ASIC chip 4 together, and the sealant 5 will firmly bond the contact area between the shell 2 and the circuit board 1 so that no gap will appear, and the sound insulation effect is better. The MEMS chip 7 and the ASIC chip 4 are electrically connected to the circuit board 1 respectively through the gold wire 6, and the gold wire 6 enables them to better transmit and convert signals. The sound hole 81 is provided with three installed above the shell 2. The provision of three sound holes 81 can effectively reduce the signal-to-noise ratio.

[0043] Under the same conditions, the larger the cavity 3 is, the higher the sensitivity is and the higher the signal-to-noise ratio is. On the contrary, the smaller the cavity 3 is, the lower the sensitivity is and the lower the signal-to-noise ratio is.

[0044] The signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) refers to the ratio of signal to noise. For example, the noise of a MEMS microphone depends on the background noise of the chip. If the sensitivity is increased while the chip remains unchanged, the signal-to-noise ratio will be increased accordingly. The higher the signal-to-noise ratio, the better the effect of the audio product, the more detailed the sound that can be picked up, and the higher the sound quality of the sound playback. Therefore, this design improves the sound reception effect.

[0045] The frequency response curve is a graph represented by a rectangular coordinate system with frequency (unit: "Hertz / Hz") as the independent variable and sensitivity (unit: "decibel / dB") as the dependent variable.

[0046] The utility model adopts a new shell design, which effectively solves the problem that high-sensitivity and high-signal-to-noise ratio products are difficult to make, and does not change other components. The implementation method is simple, the process is mature, and the yield rate is high. This design can be applied to front sound products as well as rear sound products. Specifically:

[0047] While keeping the internal parts and structure unchanged, the utility model makes the volume of the cavity 3 larger through the new shell 2 structural design method, solves the problem that high-sensitivity and high-signal-to-noise ratio products are difficult to produce and the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) is low, makes the design more reasonable, and the space for the selection of chips (such as the ASIC chip 4 and the MEMS chip 7 in the utility model) is wider, providing a broad design platform for the subsequent derivative related products. In addition, the structure is simple and easy to make, the cost is low, the process flow is mature, and the yield rate is high. At the same time, the appearance of the newly designed product is a completely square design, the contact area of ​​the top surface is larger, and it is more conducive to customer use. Thereby solving the problem that the prior art design generally has an R angle 9 (or rounded corners) resulting in a small area of ​​the top surface of the shell 2, which is not conducive to customer use.

[0048] Material selection: the shell 2 can be made of metal, plastic, ceramic, etc. This packaging structure can also be used to package the MEMS electronic cigarette microphone.

[0049] The remaining parts not described in this utility model are existing or known technologies.

[0050] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations may be made to the embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, and that the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
