High voltage recessed connector contact

An over-molded printed circuit board (PCB) with an integrated poke-home connector comprising:

• (a) a low pressure over-molded encapsulation potting a high voltage multiplier PCB with an integrated high voltage transformer;
• (b) a deeply recessed high voltage connector contact, having a conductive rubber slug and a thin membrane over said recessed conductive rubber slug;
• (c) slots cut into the PCB to allow for standard surface mounting techniques for mounting components onto the PCB;
• and
• (d) components selected for their use in current mode (CM) output control of the high voltage output curves slope;
• whereby the over-molded PCB with an integrated poke-home connector can safely and efficiently deliver high voltage to an object inserted into said deeply recessed high voltage connector contact.

A method for making an over-molded PCB with an integrated poke-home connector, comprising the steps of:

• (a) providing a printed circuit board (PCB);
• (b) cutting a plurality of openings in said PCB;
• (c) providing a plurality of components;
• (d) mounting said plurality of components in said plurality of openings;
• (e) providing an arc and leakage resistant connection point;
• and
• (f) encapsulating said components and said PCB by means of a low pressure injection molding;
• whereby the part is fully encapsulated and has maintained overall minimum width.
