Abstract
A device and method of forming the device that includes a first substrate having a cavity on a bottom surface of the first substrate and MEMS components formed on the first substrate and in the cavity; a second substrate having an upper surface; a first metal bond that extends around a perimeter of the cavity and forming a first connection between the bottom surface of first substrate and the upper surface of the second substrate; a second metal bond that extends around a perimeter of the first metal bond and spaced from the first metal bond, the second metal bond forming a second connection between the bottom surface of the first substrate and the upper surface of the second substrate; where the MEMS components are hermetically sealed between the first and second substrates. A getter agent can be between the first and second metal bonds.
