Abstract
A method and apparatus for operably connecting electronic devices through a closed container is achieved by securing one end of a laminate connector (28) to a first electronic device, e.g., a fireset circuit (22). Device (22) is placed in a housing (12) which defines a housing closure surface (16). A cover (14a), which defines a cover closure surface (18) dimensioned and configured to engage the housing closure surface (16), is placed on the housing (12) to define a housing-cover joint (20a), and the laminate connector (28) is disposed within the housing-cover joint (20a). The housing-cover joint (20a) is sealed with an adhesive and the second end of the laminate connector (28) is connected to a second electronic device. The thinness of the laminate connector allows it to pass through the housing-cover joint (20a) without significant adverse affect on the seal therein or on the pressure-bearing ability of the housing (12) or the cover (14a). In one application, the invention may be used to electrically connect an encased fireset to an external arming device.
