Patent number: 9649796Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing a sensor. In the method, a sensor element having an IC is pre-overmolded to produce a preform, wherein the preform is designed in such a way that the preform can accommodate electrical contacts for the sensor having various dimensions and/or in various positions by press fitting. The electrical contacts are pressed into holes/recesses of the preform, the connections of the IC of the sensor are connected to the electrical contacts, and the preform is inserted into an injecting mold and is overmolded to produce the finished sensor. In this way, sensors for different applications can be produced in a substantially standardized manner. The invention further relates to a sensor.Type: GrantFiled: December 10, 2012Date of Patent: May 16, 2017Assignees: Continental Teves AG & Co. oHG, Continental Automotive GmbHInventors: Marc Panis, Matthias Viering, Lothar Biebricher, Robert Déléris, Leon Apers, Marie-Noelle Gris, Matyas Czeh
