Abstract
A device () may use one or more conductive elements () to electrically couple a substrate () and a cap (). In one embodiment, an acceleration sense element may be formed on the substrate (), and the cap () may be used to provide hermetic protection to the acceleration sense element. In one embodiment, conductive elements () may be formed by dispensing conductive die attach material. Wire bonds (e.g.) bonded to bond pads (e.g.) on the substrate (e.g.) may be used to couple substrate (), the conductive element pad (), and the cap (), to a desired predetermined potential.
