Electronic module having a plastic housing with conductive tracks and method of its production
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method of producing an electronic module comprising electronic components and a plastic housing, whereina base body housing is made of an electrically non-conductive plastic with recessed conduits;
- a galvanizable plastic material is introduced into the conduits;
exposed surface areas of the galvanizable plastic material are metallized thereby forming conductor tracks, the electronic components are placed onto said conductor tracks and both electrically and mechanically connected to the conductor tracks, wherein housings with different conductor tracks or a different arrangement of the electronic components are produced with one and the same injection mold by interchangeable mold cores.

Abstract
The electronic module whose electronic components are connected by conductor tracks has a housing with a base body housing made of electrically non-conductive plastic. The base body housing is provided with recessed conduits on the inside surface of its housing wall, and a galvanizable plastic is introduced into these conduits. The conductor tracks are formed by a metallization applied onto the galvanizable plastic and they can run three-dimensionally along different wall sections of the base body housing.
