Electronic device

An electronic device, comprising

• a housing, which is filled to a predetermined fill level with a first matrix produced from a first potting compound,
• at least one circuit board arranged in the housing, and,
• arranged on one of the circuit boards, at least one component, which has one or more passageways extending through the component and which is embodied and arranged in the housing in such a manner that via the one or more passageways a connection is provided between a component side arranged within the housing interior filled with the first matrix and a front face of the component arranged outside the housing interior filled with the first matrix,
• whose one or more passageways are at least sectionally embodied in such a manner that they act as capillaries for media, whose viscosity is less than a predetermined limit value, and as barriers for media, whose viscosity is greater than the limit value,
• wherein the component, at least one of the components or each component, there is arranged in a spatially bounded region adjoining the component side of the component a second matrix produced from a second potting compound having a viscosity exceeding the limit value, which second matrix is embodied in such a manner that it effects a terminal sealing of the connection formed by the one or more passageways of the component against the first potting compound used for producing the first matrix.

An apparatus for manufacturing an electronic device, including:

• a housing, which is filled to a predetermined fill level with a first matrix produced from a first potting compound,
• at least one circuit board arranged in the housing, and,
• arranged on one of the circuit boards, at least one component, which has one or more passageways extending through the component and which is embodied and arranged in the housing in such a manner that via the one or more passageways a connection is provided between a component side arranged within the housing interior filled with the first matrix and a front face of the component arranged outside the housing interior filled with the first matrix,
• whose one or more passageways are at least sectionally embodied in such a manner that they act as capillaries for media, whose viscosity is less than a predetermined limit value, and as barriers for media, whose viscosity is greater than the limit value,
• wherein the component, at least one of the components or each component, there is arranged in a spatially bounded region adjoining the component side of the component a second matrix produced from a second potting compound having a viscosity exceeding the limit value, which second matrix is embodied in such a manner that it effects a terminal sealing of the connection formed by the one or more passageways of the component against the first potting compound used for producing the first matrix,
• characterized in that the apparatus includes a holder, into which one or more circuit boards of the device can be inserted in such a manner that a surface normal to a first side of a circuit board, on which the component or at least one of the components is arranged, is inclined by an angle of inclination of less than 90° relative to a vertical axis extending opposite to gravitational force direction.
