Abstract
A pH sensor is provided. The pH sensor comprises a substrate and an ion sensitive field effect transistor (ISFET) die comprising an ion sensing part that responds to pH, wherein the ISFET die is located over the substrate. The pH sensor also comprises a protective layer formed over at least a portion of an outer surface of the ISFET die and at least a portion of the substrate. Further, the pH sensor comprises a cover member mechanically coupled to the protective layer, wherein the cover member houses the ISFET die and the substrate, and wherein the cover member defines an opening proximate to the ion sensing part.
