This paper reports development and characterization of a novel technology for ultra-thin hermetic biocompatible packages at the wafer level and presents data demonstrating the hermeticity of the package. This technology utilizes a 3-micron thick film of gold that is electroplated over a 2-micron thick polyimide layer to completely enclose a section of an implantable system, which may contain integrated electronics. This package was implemented on an implantable probe substrate to demonstrate a future application of the technology, with a yield of 88%. This technology was further characterized through the development of an integrated saline sensor, which predicted a MTTF of 160 years when soaking in Phosphate Buffered Saline.
