摘要: Zero-level packaging, i.e. the encapsulation of MEMS device at wafer level, is an essential technique for miniaturization and cost reduction. A large number different capping sealing materials techniques can be used. However, testing qualification this type packaging devices requires special techniques. conventional new characterization mechanical hermeticity are presented, as well overview about outgasing measurements reliability testing.
