Abstract
A magnetic sensor is provided in which a flexible substrate is used to support a magnetically sensitive component and other electronic components relative to the position of a permanent magnet. A thermoset material is used as an encapsulant to form a solid magnetic sensor in which the magnetically sensitive component, the permanent magnet and a portion of the flexible substrate are encapsulated within the thermoset material after it solidifies. A portion of the flexible substrate extends from an end of the solidified encapsulant to permit electrical connection to other components and devices.
