Method of forming a device package having edge interconnect pad

摘要

A method of forming a device package having an edge interconnect pad includes forming an array of MEMS devices overlaying at least one conductive via that electrically connects to an underlying layer. The method continues with depositing, by way of a damascene process, a conductive material on a substrate that is coplanar with the array of MEMS devices, the conductive material coupling to the at least one conductive via. The method also includes covering the array of MEMS devices and the conductive material with a passivation layer.
