Patent ID: 8817483

Claim:
A connector assembly for a sensor, comprising: an electrical connector including: a mechanical connector with a first end and second end; two or more electrical terminals exposed at the first end of the mechanical connector and two or more electrical terminals exposed at the second end of the mechanical connector; a printed circuit board secured relative to the first end of the mechanical connector, with one or more terminals electrically connected to corresponding ones of the two or more electrical terminals that are exposed at the first end of the mechanical connector, the printed circuit board having a conductive layer that spans across a majority of the printed circuit board to provide an Electro Magnetic Interference (EMI) barrier; and a conductive outer housing mechanically secured to the mechanical connector and electrically connected to the conductive layer of the printed circuit board, where the conductive outer housing includes: a first end; a second end; a wall that defines an aperture extending between the first end and the second end; and the wall further defining a ridge extending inward into the aperture, wherein the ridge is positioned between the first end and the second end of the conductive outer housing, the ridge having a first surface facing generally toward the first end and a second surface facing generally toward the second end.
