Laird Technologies manufactures a range of board-level shielding solutions, including one-piece shields, multi-compartmental shields and precision contacts.
Standard surface-mount shields are available in both one-piece and two-piece designs. One-piece shields offer six sides of protection, with the sixth side being the board itself. One-piece designs offer economical shielding protection where access to covered components is not necessary. There are no tooling costs associated with either the one and/or two-piece standard design.
Two-piece board level shields offer users the flexibility to inspect or repair shielded components without having to risk board damage by removing the entire shield or incur any tooling costs. Covers snap on and off with ease, which makes repair of the component under the shield quicker and easier and reduces board rework. Two-piece shields are available unassembled or assembled, and are designed to survive drop, shock and no-rattle tests.
Laird Technologies’ standard precision electronic contacts ground, carry current and signals, and interconnect boards and devices. A wide choice of plating options is available for maximum electrical current carrying performance and a wide array of designs in standard formats that are ready for production can be supplied. Installation costs are lowered by tape and reel packaging.
