Abstract

A low-profile packaging structure for a microelectromechanical-system (MEMS) resonator system includes an electrical lead having internal and external electrical contact surfaces at respective first and second heights within a cross-sectional profile of the packaging structure and a die-mounting surface at an intermediate height between the first and second heights. A resonator-control chip is mounted to the die-mounting surface of the electrical lead such that at least a portion of the resonator-control chip is disposed between the first and second heights and wire-bonded to the internal electrical contact surface of the electrical lead. A MEMS resonator chip is mounted to the resonator-control chip in a stacked die configuration and the MEMS resonator chip, resonator-control chip and internal electrical contact and die-mounting surfaces of the electrical lead are enclosed within a package enclosure that exposes the external electrical contact surface of the electrical lead at an external surface of the packaging structure.
