Abstract
A MEMS device is provided. The device includes a MEMS wafer, a top cap wafer and a bottom cap wafer. The top and bottom cap wafers are respectively bonded to first and second sides of the MEMS wafer, the MEMS and cap wafers being electrically conductive. The outer side of the top cap wafer is provided with electrical contacts. The MEMS wafer, the top cap wafer and the bottom cap wafer define a cavity for housing a MEMS structure. The device includes insulated conducting pathways extending from within the bottom cap wafer, through the MEMS wafer and through the top cap wafer. The pathways are connected to the respective electrical contacts on the top cap wafer, for routing electrical signals from the bottom cap wafer to the electrical contacts on the top cap wafer. A method of manufacturing the MEMS device is also provided.
