Abstract: An electrical circuit unit, particularly for motor vehicles, features a grounded housing (1) and a printed circuit board (2) which, for protection against incoming and outgoing radiation of electrical noise, is short-circuited at high frequencies to the grounded housing. For this purpose, a noise suppression capacitor (6) on the PC board (2) is connected in series to a second capacitor. This second capacitor is formed by a metallized surface (8) on the board (2) and a metal-filled adhesive, as a first plate, a metal inner surface (11) of the housing (1) as a second plate, and an intermediate passivation or eloxal layer serving as a dielectric (13). The metal-filled adhesive acts to electrically bridge most of the gap between the metallized surface (8) and the housing surface (11), thereby capacitively coupling the metal-filled adhesive to the housing (1) and increasing the capacitance.
