Abstract

An apparatus includes an image sensor that is bonded to a spacer. The spacer has a thinned wall that defines a step and a recess in an interior wall at a first end of the spacer. The image sensor is bonded to the step within the recess of the spacer such that the image sensor is accepted completely within the recess of the spacer. A glass wafer is mounted on a second end of the spacer. A lens is mounted on the glass wafer such that light is to be directed through the lens to the image sensor.
