Abstract

A two-stage packaging method of image sensors is disclosed. The packaging method includes the following steps: providing a substrate, fixing an image sensor chip on the substrate, fixing a transparent board on the image sensor chip, electrically connecting the image sensor chip and the substrate, forming a first encapsulant lay, and forming a second encapsulant layer. The two-stage packaging method prevents excessive pressure from being generated by formation of the encapsulant layers during the image sensor packaging process. Such excessive pressure, if generated, may result in position shift of the image sensor chip or damage of the bonding wires. The two-stage packaging method can increase the yield of the image sensor packaging process as well as the sensitivity of image sensors, thereby improving the quality and production of image sensor packaging while lowering the manufacturing costs.
