Abstract: Disclosed herein are embodiments of a sensor assembly, methods of manufacturing the same, and methods of using the same. In one embodiment, a sensor assembly comprises a substrate comprising an outer region, an inner region, and a middle region positioned between the outer region and the inner region, the substrate further comprising electrical contact pads on at least the inner region. The sensor assembly further comprises a housing coupled to the substrate at the outer region or at the middle region to form a hermetic seal. The sensor assembly further comprises a sensor device coupled to the substrate, via the electrical contact pads, at the inner region. In certain embodiments, the sensor assembly further comprises a conformal coating deposited on at least a portion of the sensor assembly.

Abstract: Embodiments of a system, a gas panel and method thereof having reduced exhaust requirements for the delivery of gases include distributing an inert gas in at least one interior portion of the gas panel in which a gas to be delivered by the gas panel is present. Embodiments can further include monitoring for leaks in the interior portion of the gas panel and, in response to a detected leak, increasing the distribution of the inert gas in at least the portion of the gas panel in which the leak was detected. Embodiments may further include exhausting gases out of the gas panel. In such embodiments, in response to a detected leak, a rate of the exhausting of the gases is increased. The gas panel can also be sealed to reduce an amount of gas that leaks out of or air that enters into the gas panel.
