  • Publication number: 20220201847
    Abstract: A control unit for a motor vehicle is provided. The control unit includes a printed circuit board having a first side and an edge. The first side is delimited by the edge. At least one electronic component is arranged on the first side of the printed circuit board and is electrically conductively connected to the printed circuit board. At least one first conductor loop is arranged on the first side of the printed circuit board and at least one second conductor loop is arranged at a distance from the first conductor loop. The first conductor loop is arranged between the edge and the second conductor loop, and the second conductor loop is arranged between the first conductor loop and the at least one electronic component. An encapsulation surrounds at least the first side, the at least one electronic component, the first conductor loop and the second conductor loop.

  • Patent number: 10506732
    Abstract: The disclosure relates to a control device in a motor vehicle. The control device includes a housing cover with a peripheral edge region, and a planar, electrical connecting apparatus with integrated conductor tracks. The housing cover, in the edge region, is cohesively connected at least to the connecting apparatus and forms a cavity with the connecting apparatus. The control device also includes at least one electronic component within the cavity. The connecting apparatus electrically connects the at least one electronic component to electronic components outside the cavity. The housing cover is encapsulated by injection molding in a media-tight manner by a polymer beyond the peripheral edge region.

  • Publication number: 20170339790
    Abstract: The disclosure relates to an electronic component that includes a printed circuit board with two opposite flat sides and a plurality of electronic components, and a base plate. A number of the electronic components are each fixed on and electrically conductively connected to a rear flat side of the printed circuit board and a further number of the electronic components are each fixed on and electrically conductively connected to a front flat side of the printed circuit board. The base plate has at least one first cutout for receiving electronic components that are arranged on the rear flat side of the printed circuit board. The disclosure also relates to a method for producing an electronic component of this kind.
