A method for fabricating a sensor is disclosed that in one embodiment bonds a first device wafer to an etched second device wafer to create a suspended structure, the flexure of which is determined by an embedded sensing element that is in electrical communication with an outer surface of the sensor through an interconnect embedded in a device layer of the first device wafer. In one embodiment the suspended structure is enclosed by a cap and the sensor is configured to measure absolute pressure.
