Abstract
A circuit assembly (1) and electronic device (30) having a printed circuit board (2), with conductive runners (3) and a ground plane (4). There is electronic circuitry (5) mounted to the circuit board (2) and electrically coupled to the runners (3). The circuit assembly (1) also has a Liquid Crystal Display (6) electrically coupled to the electronic circuitry (5), and a monopole element (7) is mounted on a surface of the Liquid Crystal Display (6) by a dielectric mount (10) that is proximal to an edge (11) of the printed circuit board (2).
