发明名称 Methods and apparatus for grounding a circuit board
摘要 A grounding member support forms an interference or friction fit with an opening defined by a circuit board. A compliant, electrically conductive grounding member couples to the grounding member support. The grounding member electrically couples a grounding layer of the circuit board with a support mount coupled to the circuit board. During assembly, insertion of the grounding member support within the opening defined by the circuit board creates an expansive or lateral force on the opening. Furthermore, during assembly, the support mount compresses the compliant, electrically conductive grounding member against the circuit board. The interference fit between the grounding member support and the opening along with compression of the grounding member between the circuit board and the support mount limits the amount of stress received by a surface of the circuit board. Such limitation of stress, in turn, limits potential damage to components mounted to the circuit board or to conductive layers within the circuit board.
