Resistive thermal devices (RTDs) may be embedded within the printed circuit. An RTD may at least partially overlap the electrical component. The RTD may include contact pads on a flexible substrate and a meandering conductive trace between the contact pads. The trace may have a resistance varying linearly as a function of temperature.
