  • Patent number: 11709972
    Abstract: A substrate for a tamper sensor includes a plurality of walls and a tab. The walls define a protective volume with an open side. The walls have a plurality of open edges adjacent the open side and a plurality of interior edges different from the open edges. The tab extends from one of the interior edges of one of the walls and is disposed within the protective volume.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: February 21, 2020
    Date of Patent: July 25, 2023
    Assignee: TE CONNECTIVITY SOLUTIONS GMBH

  • Patent number: 11341286
    Abstract: A tamper sensor assembly that includes a substrate with a protective bulk section including tamper circuitry and a hardware section configured to receive hardware circuitry and extending from the protective bulk section; the hardware circuitry electrically connected to the tamper circuitry to alter operation of the hardware circuitry responsive to modification of the tamper circuitry. The substrate additionally includes an attachment section extending from the hardware section. The tamper sensor assembly also includes a first fold in the substrate to position a first portion of the hardware section to extend along the protective bulk section, and a second fold in the substrate to position a second portion of the hardware section to extend along the first portion of the hardware section.

  • Patent number: 11089675
    Abstract: A tamper sensor that includes a substrate and a conductive layer placed on the substrate. The tamper sensor also includes an insulation layer that is stacked on the conductive layer to form a layered tamper circuit. In addition, the substrate of the tamper sensor is the only substrate of the tamper sensor.
