Abstract
A MEMS device package comprises a substrate with a MEMS device formed thereon, a backplane, and a primary seal, wherein the primary seal is positioned between the backplane and the substrate to encapsulate and seal the MEMS device package from ambient conditions. The MEMS device package further comprises a secondary seal in contact with at least the backplane and the substrate.
