Hello all,
I'm designing some bits of circuitry which will be fitted into a hyperbaric chamber.
Has anyone any experience of pressurising electronic circuitry?
Does anyone know what effect elevated pressures (in the order of 5 Bar / 73PSI) may have on electronic components such as capacitors, resistors, quartz crystals, ICs etc?
I'd rather not enclose these particular bits of circuitry in individual pressure vessels as I want to keep cost and complexity down, so I'm thinking of potting them in polyurethane or simply fitting them into oil filled pressure balanced enclosures.
Any help much appreciated!
James
