  • Patent number: 5414597
    Abstract: An RF shielded electronic module is formed of stamped sheet metal in the form of a wrap having four side walls. A sheet metal cross-member extends between opposed walls and is welded thereto. A printed circuit board is soldered to the cross-member and to the wrap such that the cross-member provides an RF shield between separate areas of components on the printed circuit board. A pair of sheet metal covers are joined to the wrap substantially enclosing the circuit board. The wrap and covers provide an externally shielded enclosure. The wrap, covers, and cross-member provide internal shielded compartments.
