EXPOSED WIRE-BONDING FOR SENSING LIQUID AND WATER IN ELECTRONIC DEVICES

Abstract:

An electronic device can include a housing defining an internal volume and a pressure sensor assembly disposed in the internal volume and in communication with an ambient environment. The pressure sensor assembly can include a structure at least partially enclosing a sensor volume, a pressure sensor affixed to a die disposed in the sensor volume, and an exposed moisture detection conductor positioned in the sensor volume.
