Abstract: The present invention provides a substantially hermetically sealed enclosure about an active device area of a semiconductor substrate. The enclosure is created by forming a guard ring around the active device area on the substrate, and forming a metal panel over and in contact with the guard ring to enclose the active device area. The guard ring is a laminate of metal rings formed from alternating metal filled via rings and metal trace rings. The guard ring is formed on an ohmic contact ring on the surface of the substrate. An annealing process may be used to hermetically seal the guard ring to the ohmic contact ring.
