Electromagnetic-energy absorbing materials are used to suppress electromagnetic interference (EMI) when used in association with an electronic circuit, the absorptive material suppressing the transmission of electromagnetic interference (EMI) therefrom. Disclosed are processes and devices for fabricating absorptive materials configured for attachment to an edge of the electronic circuit. In one embodiment, an absorptive shield is prepared using an absorptive material and a fastener. In one embodiment, the fastener is an adhesive. In another embodiment, the fastener is a mechanical fastener, such as a clip and a screw. In yet other embodiments, the absorptive material is combined with a conductor to extend the frequency range of the shielding effectiveness of either the absorptive material or the conductor acting alone.
A shield for reducing radio frequency (RF) interference associated with an electronic circuit, the shield comprising an RF absorber configured to be in electrical communication with an edge of the electronic circuit, wherein the RF absorber intercepts electromagnetic fields, removing a portion of the energy contained therein through energy conversion, thereby reducing associated RF interference.
A method for reducing radio frequency (RF) interference associated with an electronic circuit comprising the steps of:
A shield for reducing radio frequency (RF) interference associated with an electronic circuit, the shield comprising:
A shield for reducing radio frequency (RF) interference associated with an electronic circuit, the shield comprising means for absorbing RF energy, configured to be in electrical communication with an edge of the electronic circuit, wherein the means for absorbing RF energy intercepts electromagnetic fields, removing a portion of the energy contained therein through conversion, thereby reducing associated RF interference.
