Methods of packaging microelectronic imagers and packaged microelectronic imagers. An embodiment of such a method can include providing an imager workpiece having a plurality of imager dies arranged in a die pattern and providing a cover substrate through which a desired radiation can propagate. The imager dies include image sensors and integrated circuitry coupled to the image sensors. The method further includes providing a spacer having a web that includes an adhesive and has openings arranged to be aligned with the image sensors. For example, the web can be a film having an adhesive coating, or the web itself can be a layer of adhesive. The method continues by assembling the imager workpiece with the cover substrate such that (a) the spacer is between the imager workpiece and the cover substrate, and (b) the openings are aligned with the image sensors. The attached web is not cured after the imager workpiece and the cover substrate have both been adhered to the web. As such, the web does not outgas contaminants into the compartments in which the image sensors are housed.
