Abstract:
There is a problem that contact resistance increases due to formation of an oxide film on a contact interface or biting of abrasion powder caused by micro-sliding when a contact connecting portion of a connection terminal including non-noble metal members is exposed to high temperature environment or a repetitious temperature cycle. An object of the present invention is to provide an in-vehicle electronic module that has connection reliability equivalent to that of the conventional in-vehicle electronic module even when being placed in the environment of an engine compartment and can achieve cost reduction by reducing the number of parts and assembly steps. The electronic module includes a mounting board having a circuit board on which an electronic component is mounted, and a case member for accommodating and protecting the mounting board from surrounding environment, The electronic module has a connection structure in which a portion of the circuit board is protruded to the outside through an opening of the case and inserts a board terminal into an external female connector to obtain electrical continuity, and a portion of the case member forms a connector housing that receives the female connector and isolates a space in which the board terminal is present from surrounding environment and an insulating resin member for fixing the circuit board in the case is integrally molded or joined with the circuit board.

Abstract:
An electronic device may be provided with integrated circuits and electrical components such as capacitors that are soldered to printed circuit boards. Liquid polymer adhesive such as encapsulant and underfill materials may be deposited on the printed circuit. Electrical components such as capacitors may be coated with the encapsulant. The underfill may be deposited adjacent to an integrated circuit, so that the underfill wicks into a gap between the integrated circuit and the printed circuit board. The encapsulant may be more viscous than the underfill and may therefore prevent the flowing underfill from reaching the electrical components. Some of the encapsulant may be located between the electrical components and the printed circuit board. The encapsulant can be cured to form an elastomeric material covering the electrical components that helps damp vibrations. The elastomeric material may be less stiff than the underfill.
