Abstract

Package for electronic components of a switch, which switch includes sensing components such as thermistor, measuring components, and output-control components, some of which components are relatively highly power-dissipative. A first portion of the switch supports the thermistor in a bushing wherein the head of the thermistor is bonded to the bushing with an electrically insulating material and the head of the thermistor is bonded to a wall of the package with a thermally conductive material, all of which bonding provides shock and vibration protection for the thermistor. Heat is removed from the highly power-dissipative components by a thermally conductive material which conducts heat from the components to a surrounding capsule and by wires which connect the switch to outside circuit components.
