The invention relates to electronic sensors comprising an
electromechanical microsensor cell such as a micro-accelerometer, and it
more particularly relates to the way in which the microsensor cell per se
is mounted in a package that furthermore comprises a printed circuit
board carrying the electronic processing circuits associated with the
microsensor cell. In order to establish a non-rigid electrical connection
between a conductive terminal of the board and a connection pin of the
cell, a narrow strip-shaped conductive connection cut by chemical
machining from a thin and flexible metal sheet (CuBe) is soldered. The
strip comprises at least one circle-arc segment extending over one
half-turn or three-fourths of a turn. Its resilience permits very low
stiffness in all directions and therefore prevents any transmission of
vibrations or shocks to the cell. The manufacture of the connections may
be collective for all the connections of a sensor and for successive
sensors manufactured serially. Application to accelerometers subjected to
large shock and vibration stresses.
