HOUSING FOR ACCOMMODATING AN ELECTRONIC CIRCUIT

摘要

The present invention relates to a housing for accommodating an electronic circuit (4) composed of a plurality of components (5), consisting of a carrier plate (7) and a housing cover (8) with a circumferentially closed wall (9) arranged on the carrier plate (7), and with a covering part (10) arranged on the wall (9) and situated opposite the carrier plate (7). On the carrier plate (7), in an interior enclosed by the housing cover (8) in a pressure-tight manner relative to an external atmosphere, a volume compensation element (11) is fixed and embodied elastically in such a way that, in order to compensate for pressure fluctuations occurring in the interior, a variable spatial volume is present as a result of a change in the position of the volume compensation element (11) with respect to the carrier plate (7). An interspace between the volume compensation element (11) and the carrier plate (7) is connected to the external atmosphere.
