US Patent 9523270 Downhole electronics with pressure transfer medium

Disclosed embodiments include apparatus and methods for transferring a pressure to downhole electronics with a pressure transfer medium. An embodiment of the apparatus includes a body supporting a moveable pressure transfer member, a pressure transfer medium contained by the body and the moveable pressure transfer member, and an electronic component disposed in the pressure transfer medium, wherein the pressure transfer member is moveable to transfer a pressure to the pressure transfer medium and the electronic component. Another embodiment of the apparatus includes a moveable enclosure and a non-conductive material, wherein the non-conductive material isolates an electronic component from a downhole fluid and the moveable enclosure is operable to transfer a hydrostatic pressure to the non-conductive material and the electronic component. An embodiment of a method includes transferring a downhole hydrostatic pressure to an electronic component via a flexible package and a pressure transfer medium.
