A method for forming a cavity (30) to a structure such as a poly fuse (114) with a deep etch process whereby a mask is formed over the structure a first dielectric layer (23) and an etch partially through the first dielectric layer is performed. Next, a second dielectric layer (34) is deposited and a second mask is formed for completing the etch to the structure. Finally, an etch through the second dielectric (34) to an area at or near the structure is performed. A resultant device has non-etched second dielectric material on the sidewalls of the etch cavity 30.
