Abstract

A sensor has a support substrate (200), an electrode (110, 510, 710) movable relative to a surface (201) of the support substrate (200) and comprised of a first material, a structure (160, 460, 560, 760) over a portion of the electrode (110, 510, 710) to limit mobility of the electrode (110, 510, 710) and comprised of a second material different from the first material, and bonding pads (170, 470) outside a perimeter of the electrode (110, 510, 710) and comprised of the second material.
