SHELLCASE® OC CSP
SHELLCASE® OC is a true chip size package that utilizes an innovative glass-silicon-glass sandwich to enable image-sensing capabilities through the actual packaging structure. SHELLCASE® OC's innovation is an air cavity between the package and the chip, enabling the use of micro-lenses for enhanced image quality. SHELLCASE® OC is thus the packaging solution of choice for image sensors with micro-lenses.
SHELLCASE® OC has been in commercial production since 2004, and can be found in a wide variety of devices, including camera phones, digital cameras and medical devices.
