Apparatus and method for RF shielding of a printed circuit board

摘要

An apparatus and method for shielding discrete areas of a printed circuit board from electromagnetic interference includes a frame and separate shielding lids. The frame is surface mount soldered onto the solder tracks of a printed circuit board and provides fences which divide the printed circuit board into discrete areas. Separate shielding lids of different heights are provided to shield the separate discrete areas. The separate shielding lids mount inside the discrete areas defined by the fences of the frame and attach to lips formed on interior surfaces of the fences.
