A method of fabricating a MEMS device includes forming a magnetic sensor
over a SOI wafer which may include an epoxy layer; forming a pair of MEMS
flux concentrators sandwiching the magnetic sensor; connecting an
electrostatic comb drive to each of the flux concentrators; connecting a
spring to the flux concentrators and the comb drive; performing a
plurality of DRIE processes on the SOI wafer; and releasing the flux
concentrators, the comb drive, and the spring from the SOI wafer. Another
embodiment includes forming adhesive bumps and a magnetic sensor on a
first wafer; forming a second wafer; forming a pair of MEMS flux
concentrators, a pair of electrostatic comb drives, and at least one
spring on the second wafer; bonding the second wafer to the adhesive
bumps; and compressing the adhesive bumps using non-thermal means such as
pressure only.
