Abstract

A wiring device for wiring an electronic apparatus including an interface, a conductor track and a component fitting island that is connected to the interface via the conductor track that is set up to carry an electronic component and to make electrical contact with the interface via the electrical conductor track, wherein the component fitting island is free of a web element that is set up to hold the component fitting island on a support element during a housing process housing the component fitting island.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A wiring device for wiring an electronic apparatus comprising an interface, a conductor track, a placement island, and a leadframe enclosing the interface, the conductor track, and the placement island, wherein the placement island is connected to the interface via the conductor track, the placement island including a surface adapted to be electrically bonded to an electronic component and being adapted to make electrical contact with the interface via the electrical conductor track, wherein the placement island is free from a web element which connects between the placement island and the leadframe, and which is designed to hold the placement island on a supporting element during a housing process for housing the placement island.

2. The wiring device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the conductor track has a modulus of elasticity which is dimensioned such that bending of the conductor track once the electronic component has been placed on the placement island remains within a predetermined limitation.

3. The wiring device as claimed in claim 1 , comprising the supporting element, which is connected to the leadframe via a web element.

4. The wiring device as claimed in claim 3 , wherein the leadframe has a contour in its cross section which deviates from a sheet-shaped profile.

5. The wiring device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the leadframe has a contour in its cross section which deviates from a sheet-shaped profile.

6. An electronic apparatus comprising a wiring device as claimed in claim 1 , an electronic component which is carried by the placement island and is in electrical contact with the interface via the electrical conductor track, and a circuit housing, which houses at least the placement island and the electronic component.

7. The electronic apparatus as claimed in claim 6 , comprising a molding compound which partially houses the circuit housing, wherein the circuit housing protrudes out of the molding compound at least in the region of the placement island.

8. The electronic apparatus as claimed in claim 7 , which electronic apparatus is designed, as sensor, to output, with the electronic component, an electrical signal based on a detected physical variable.

9. The electronic apparatus as claimed in claim 6 , which electronic apparatus is designed, as sensor, to output, with the electronic component, an electrical signal based on a detected physical variable.

10. A method for producing an electronic apparatus, comprising:
placing the electronic component on the placement island of a wiring device as claimed in claim 1 , and
housing at least the placement island in a circuit housing.

11. The method as claimed in claim 10 , wherein at least part of the wiring device is heated to a predetermined temperature during placement on the placement island.
