Abstract
Particular embodiments described herein provide for an electronic device that can be configured to include a substrate that includes traces, a radiation source on the substrate, and a trace routable radiation shield on the substrate. At least a portion of the traces extend through the trace routable radiation shield and the trace routable radiation shield can help shield radiation sensitive components from at least a portion of the radiation from the radiation source.
Claims17
A trace routable radiation shield coupled to a substrate, the trace routable radiation shield comprising:
- a trace routable fence coupled to the substrate, wherein the trace routable fence includes a non-conductive body with radiation shield traces within the non-conductive body, and includes a radiation shield coupler housing recessed in the non-conductive body of the trace routable fence;
- a plurality of ground connections located on a side of the non-conductive body that faces the substrate;
- a plurality of trace paths designed to provide paths for the radiation shield traces, wherein the non-conductive body surrounds each trace path and the non-conductive body is between each trace path and a ground connection from the plurality of ground connections;
- substrate traces in the substrate, wherein at least a portion of the substrate traces electrically couple with the trace paths to electrically couple with the radiation shield traces in the trace routable fence to allow traces to be routed from the substrate to the trace routable fence and from the trace routable fence back to the substrate;
- and
- a radiation shield coupled to the trace routable fence.
