A semiconductor sensor device is formed using MEMS technology by placing a thin layer of single-crystal silicon, which includes semiconductor devices, over a cavity, which has been formed in a semiconductor material. The thin layer of single-crystal silicon can be formed by forming the semiconductor devices in the top surface of a single-crystal silicon wafer, thinning the silicon wafer to a desired thickness, and then dicing the thinned wafer to form silicon layers of a desired size. The MEMS device can be used to implement a pressure sensor, microphone, temperature sensor, and a joystick.
