Abstract:
An apparatus comprises a electronic assembly and a housing. The electronic assembly comprises a sensor module mounted on or encapsulated within a substrate. The housing generally has a sensor cavity configured to receive the electronic assembly, a connector cavity configured to connect with a wire harness connector, a wall separating the sensor cavity and the connector cavity, and a plurality of terminals having a first end extending from the wall into the sensor cavity and a second end extending from the wall into the connector cavity. The first end of each terminal is generally configured to form an electrical and mechanical connection with a respective conductive pad of the substrate. The wall separating the sensor cavity and the connector cavity generally comprises an overlap configured to set an amount of deflection experienced by the first end of each terminal when the electronic assembly is inserted in the sensor cavity.

Claim (Index 12):
A sensor housing assembly comprising:\n a sensor cavity configured to receive an electronic assembly; a connector cavity configured to connect with a wire harness connector; a wall separating the sensor cavity and the connector cavity; and a plurality of terminals having a first end extending from the wall into the sensor cavity and a second end extending from the wall into the connector cavity, wherein the first end of each terminal is configured to form an electrical and mechanical connection with a respective conductive pad on a surface of a substrate of said electronic assembly when inserted into said sensor cavity, a first portion of the wall separating the sensor cavity and the connector cavity on a side of the first end of each terminal nearest the electronic assembly has a first thickness, a second portion of the wall separating the sensor cavity and the connector cavity on a second side of the first end of each terminal opposite from the first side has a second thickness that is greater than the first thickness, the difference in thickness between the first portion and the second portion of the wall comprises an extension of the second portion of the wall into the sensor cavity, and the extension acts as a fulcrum configured to set an amount of deflection experienced by the first end of each terminal when the electronic assembly is installed in the sensor housing.
