Abstract

A hermetic microelectromechanical system (MEMS) package includes a CMOS MEMS chip and a second substrate. The CMOS MEMS Chip has a first substrate, a structural dielectric layer, a CMOS circuit and a MEMS structure. The structural dielectric layer is disposed on a first side of the first structural substrate. The structural dielectric layer has an interconnect structure for electrical interconnection and also has a protection structure layer. The first structural substrate has at least a hole. The hole is under the protection structure layer to form at least a chamber. The chamber is exposed to the environment in the second side of the first structural substrate. The chamber also comprises a MEMS structure. The second substrate is adhered to a second side of the first substrate over the chamber to form a hermetic space and the MEMS structure is within the space.
