Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of MEMS micromirror components and relates to a MEMS micromirror component with a high-strength packaging structure. Background Art

[0002] The shortcomings of existing MEMS micromirror assemblies in terms of packaging strength primarily manifest themselves in insufficient mechanical strength of the packaging materials, weaknesses in the packaging structure design, and improper stress control during the packaging process. The root cause of these shortcomings is the extremely high miniaturization and precision requirements of MEMS micromirror assemblies, which existing packaging technologies struggle to fully meet. Conventional approaches include selecting stronger packaging materials and optimizing the packaging structure design. Metal packaging can replace traditional plastic packaging, or support structures can be added to the package design to improve overall mechanical stability. Optimizing the packaging structure design may increase the component size, contradicting the original intention of miniaturization. While improving the packaging process can improve packaging quality, it may also increase production complexity and cost, reducing production efficiency. Furthermore, even with these measures, due to the extremely small size of MEMS micromirror assemblies, minor defects or stress concentration points may still lead to insufficient packaging strength, thereby affecting product reliability and lifespan. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a MEMS micromirror assembly with a high-strength packaging structure to address these issues. Utility Model Content
