An improved ECU for a motor vehicle comprises a housing that includes a top portion and a bottom portion each with an associated gasket. A printed circuit board (PCB) is enclosed between the housing portions. The gaskets provide seals between the housing, portions and respective sides of the PCB and apply balanced forces to each side to minimize strain on the PCB. One or both gaskets may be electromagnetic compliance gaskets.

Electronic device with sealed housing

A carrier includes first and second container portions that are assembled together to provide a structure the supports and retains a capacitor. The first container portion and the second container portion are assembled together in a configuration in which the edges of the first wall structures face corresponding ones of the edges of the second wall structures, and the edges of the first wall structures are overlapping with respect to the corresponding ones of the edges of the second wall structures when the carrier is viewed in side view.

Capacitor carrier assembly with housing having expansion features

A capacitor carrier assembly includes a carrier, a capacitor disposed in the carrier and electrically conductive connection terminals. The connection terminals support the carrier with respect to another electronic component or device such as a printed circuit board, retain individual carrier portions in an assembled configuration, and provide an electrical connection between the capacitor and the electronic component. Each connection terminal includes an elastic member that protrudes from a surface of the connection terminal and engages the carrier, and regions of serrations provided on opposed edges of the terminal that engage the carrier, and a flange that protrudes from the surface in a direction perpendicular to the first surface. An edge of the flange includes an insulation displacement contact (IDC) joint for connection to the capacitor leads.

Capacitor carrier assembly with connection terminals

A carrier is configured to house a capacitor that includes a casing, a first capacitor lead that protrudes from the casing and a second capacitor lead that protrudes from the casing. The carrier includes a first container portion and a second container portion. The first container portion and the second container portion have the same shape and dimensions, and when assembled together, define an interior space that receives and retains the capacitor therein.

Capacitor carrier assembly with two piece housing

A capacitor carrier assembly includes a carrier, a capacitor disposed in the carrier and electrically conductive connection terminals that support the carrier with respect to another electronic component or device such as a printed circuit board. Each connection terminal has a body portion that is electrically connected to one capacitor lead of the pair of capacitor leads at a connection location, and a device connection portion that protrudes from the carrier. Leads of the capacitor and the connection locations are encapsulated by wall structures of the carrier.
