Abstract: Processes for fabricating physiological characteristic sensor devices are disclosed here. An embodiment of the fabrication process forms a circuit pattern on a base substrate, where the circuit pattern includes circuit layouts for multiple die locations. Component stacks are mounted to the circuit layouts. Each stack has features and components to provide processing and wireless communication functionality for obtained sensor data. An enclosure structure is formed overlying the base substrate to individually cover and enclose each of the component stacks. Sensor elements are fabricated on another surface of the substrate such that each sensor element has electrodes coupled to conductive plug elements formed through the substrate, and such that each sensor element corresponds to one die location. Next, the substrate is separated into physically discrete sensor device components.
