ABSTRACT:
A semiconductor device which includes device bonding pads exposed through oxide windows formed in a passivation oxide layer providing electrical connections to the metallized regions, a bonding pad of a different material electrically connected to the device bonding pad through a barrier layer, and a protective layer overlying the edges of said passivation oxide layer in contact with the device to seal the edges of the protective layer and a seal formed at said windows whereby the device is protected against the environment without the necessity of a separate metal or ceramic housing.
