Sensor including a printed circuit board with semiconductor parts having a first and second resin
View Patent ↗In a module in which a circuit board is integrally insert molded with a housing while semiconductor parts mounted on the circuit board are exposed, deformation of the circuit board caused by pressure on the circuit board by a mold for blocking the molding resin is reduced. In the module in which the circuit board is integrally insert molded with the housing while the semiconductor parts mounted on the circuit board are exposed, the deformation of the circuit board is reduced by placing a material, which has an elastic modulus smaller than the elastic modulus of the printed circuit board, in the projection area of the mold holding portion on the circuit board.
1. A sensor comprising:
a printed circuit board;
a first member that is bonded to the printed circuit board and orthogonal to the printed circuit board, wherein the first member is formed from a first resin;
one or more second members formed adjacent to the first member on the printed circuit board, wherein the one or more second members are formed from a second resin; and
an upper cover that is parallel to the printed circuit board and attached to the first member;
a lower cover that is parallel to the printed circuit and attached to the first member;
a circuit chamber formed from the first member, the upper cover, and the lower cover; and
semiconductor parts mounted on the printed circuit board, wherein at least one of the semiconductor parts is located within the circuit chamber;
wherein the second resin has an elastic modulus smaller than an elastic modulus of the printed circuit board.
2. The sensor according to claim 1 , wherein the semiconductor parts include a semiconductor for flow sensing.
3. The sensor according to claim 1 , wherein the second resin is of a same material that is placed on conductor wiring formed on the printed circuit board.
4. The sensor according to claim 1 , wherein the sensor is formed by insert molding.
