Abstract: In a particular embodiment, a force sensor apparatus is disclosed that includes a force-compliant element that deforms in response to forces applied to the force sensor apparatus. The apparatus also includes a sensing element coupled to the force-compliant element and is configured to generate a signal indicating the degree that the force-compliant element deforms in response to the applications of forces to the force sensor apparatus. In this embodiment, the apparatus also includes a printed circuit board configured to receive the signal from the sensing element and a support structure having a surface on which the printed circuit board is coupled. The support structure has an outer rim that is attached to the force-compliant element. The apparatus also includes a sensor housing that covers the printed circuit board. The sensor housing has an outer rim attached to the force-compliant element.

Abstract: A device for sensing pressure and temperature in a fluid environment includes a cover defining an interior. A thermistor tube is positioned at least partially within the interior, the thermistor tube extending substantially along a longitudinal axis. A port body is also positioned at least partially within the interior, the port body forming a channel which extends along the longitudinal axis for receiving a fluid from the fluid environment. A diaphragm is affixed within the port body. The diaphragm has a first surface exposed to the fluid within the channel and a second surface sealed from the channel.
