摘要:
A temperature sensing system for a flange mounted device is provided. The temperature sensing system 100 can be comprised of a flexible wiring board 102. The temperature sensing system can be further comprised of a temperature sensing device 122 mounted to the flexible wiring board. The flexible wiring board can have one or more conductive traces 114a, 114b, 114c disposed thereon. The conductive traces can form an electrical connection with the temperature sensing device. The temperature sensing system can also comprise a thermal pad directly connected to the temperature sensing device. The thermal pad can be formed of a thermal conductor. The thermal pad can also have a thermal contact surface. The thermal contact surface can be sized and shaped for direct physical contact with a portion of the device 302, wherein thermal energy is communicated directly from the thermal pad to the temperature sensing device. A method for sensing a temperature of a flange mounted device is also provided.
