Abstract

A multi-level stacked AW filter package including a first acoustic wave (AW) filter stacked on a second AW filter employs semiconductor fabrication methods and structures, including a metallization layer comprising interconnects to couple a contact surface to the second AW filter. Each AW filter includes an AW filter circuit on a semiconductor substrate. A second substrate disposed on a frame on the substrate protects the AW filter circuit. In a multi-level AW filter package, the second substrate of the first AW filter comprises a glass substrate with a similar expansion rate as the semiconductor substrate. The interconnects coupling the second AW filter to the contact surface are disposed on insulators on the side wall surfaces of the semiconductor substrates of the first AW filter for isolation. In a stacked AW filter package comprising a single AW filter, the interconnects couple the contact surface to the AW filter.
