  • Publication number: 20100109654
    Abstract: The method is used for manufacturing a mounting element with an angle sensor for an actuator in an internal combustion engine. The mounting element has electrical connections (20) and contains an angle sensor (24, 26, 30). To simplify manufacture, electronic components (24, 26, 30) are electrically connected directly to a leadframe (12). Next, the leadframe (12) with the electronic components (24, 26, 30) is overmoulded with thermoset (132), and the resultant angle sensor module (10) is assembled with a preproduced mounting element. The mounting element itself may be made of thermoplastic or thermoset and comprises a plug connection (20).
