In a semiconductor device, a first substrate and a second substrate are bonded to each other through an insulating film. A hermetically sealed chamber is provided between the first substrate and the second substrate, and a sensing part is enclosed in the hermetically sealed chamber.

A packaged electronic die having a micro-cavity and a method for forming a packaged electronic die. The packaged electronic die includes a photoresist frame secured to the electronic die and extending completely around the device.

Encapsulant material extends over the electronic die and around the sides of the electronic die. The encapsulant material is in contact with the first major surface of the substrate around the entire periphery of the electronic die so as to form a seal around the electronic die.

A method for encapsulating a microelectronic device, arranged on a support substrate, with an encapsulation cover includes, inter alia, the following sequence of steps: a) providing a support substrate on which a microelectronic device is arranged, b) depositing a bonding layer on the first face of the substrate, around the microelectronic device, c) positioning an encapsulation cover on the bonding layer in such a way as to encapsulate the microelectronic device, d) thinning the second main face of the support substrate and the second main face of the encapsulation cover by chemical etching.

A microelectromechanical device having a first substrate of semiconductor material and a second substrate of semiconductor material having a bonding recess delimited by projecting portions, monolithic therewith. The bonding recess forms a closed cavity with the first substrate. A bonding structure is arranged within the closed cavity and is bonded to the first and second substrates. A microelectromechanical structure is formed in a substrate chosen between the first and second substrates. The device is manufactured by forming the bonding recess in a first wafer; depositing a bonding mass in the bonding recess, the bonding mass having a greater depth than the bonding recess; and bonding the two wafers.

A semiconductor device may include a first substrate, a first electrical component, a lid, a second substrate, and a second electrical component. The first substrate may include an upper surface, a lower surface, and an upper cavity in the upper surface. The first electrical component may reside in the upper cavity of the first substrate.
