Abstract: An electromagnetic shielding system for a printed circuit board includes a shielding enclosure having a plurality of side walls and an integral top surface, the top surface including a scored line for allowing removal of an interior portion of the top surface to thereby define a remaining perimeter rim, and a replacement cover for attachment to the remaining cover rim. The replacement cover includes a metal foil having an adhesive surface or a sheet metal material.

Abstract: A shielding strip is provided with a snap lock to secure the strip to a mounting surface. The snap lock includes two legs which extend from the strip through a hole in the mounting surface, and include portions which extend past the edge of the hole to lock the strip onto the mounting surface.

Abstract: A knitted metalized yarn gasket fashioned from a core, a first tubular layer formed from a hot melt yarn around the core, and a second tubular structure knitted from a conductive yarn and disposed over at least a portion of the first tubular layer and core assembly. The hot melt yarn forming the first tubular layer adheres the second tubular structure to the core such that fraying of the knit gasket is substantially prevented.

Abstract: A mounting system includes a wall having at least one hole formed therein, and a track having at least one barb extending from a first surface of the track, the track having a second surface on an opposite side of the track from the first surface. The at least one barb is wider than the at least one hole and is sufficiently resiliently compressible to be passed through the at least one hole in one direction and expand to prevent removal of the barb in a second direction, thereby securing the track relative to the wall.

Abstract: A method for shielding and obtaining access to a component on a printed circuit board including providing a printed circuit board having a component encompassed by a shielding enclosure including a plurality of side walls and an integral top surface having a scored line which defines an interior portion, severing the scored line, removing the interior portion leaving the shielding enclosure with a remaining perimeter rim and allowing access to the component, providing a replacement cover for the shielding enclosure, and attaching the replacement cover to the shielding enclosure to replace the interior portion and to thereby encompass and shield the component. The replacement cover may be attached by soldering or by an adhesive surface of the replacement cover.
