Abstract
A Microelectromechanical Systems (MEMS) package having a housing and a MEMS device bonded within the cavity of the housing. The MEMS device includes a MEMS sensor and a base connected to the MEMS sensor at a first surface. The base includes a first support device that is collocated with the MEMS sensor and a second support device is partially physically isolated from the first support device. An attachment device attaches the second support device to a base surface of the housing. The second support device is isolated from the first support device by one or more cavities. The second support device includes a plurality of posts located adjacent to edges of the base. The plurality of posts include four corner posts and four side posts, each of the four corner posts are separated from two of the four side posts by two of the cavities.
