  • Submersible electronic sensor
    Patent number: 8887576
    Abstract: The invention provides a submersible, electrically-powered sensor assembly that incorporates a flexible seal assembly having operative and non-operative electrical traces of a uniform vertical height for carrying clamping loads and avoiding signal loss along a signal carrying trace due to compression of the flex seal, minimizing fluid leak paths between two flange surfaces, providing stability in compression, and enabling electrical communication in an environment having an operating fluid.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: March 23, 2012
    Date of Patent: November 18, 2014
    Assignee: S3C, Inc.
    Inventor: Joe Castagna
  • MECHANICAL PACKAGING TECHNIQUE OF ATTACHING MEMS AND FLEX CIRCUIT
    Publication number: 20130125634
    Abstract: The present invention disclosed provides for a rugged, compact sensing device for various implementations including those of automotive, marine, and other combustion technologies that require low cost accurate pressure sensing during internal combustion engine process. In one or more aspects of the present invention, a MEMS sensor connection with a flexible circuit is presented and the communication of which is preferably achieved through the use of wire bond technology.
