Abstract

An improved shielding assembly for a circuit board. This assembly is formed by providing a substantially flat piece of metal that will be used to form a shield assembly. A template is obtained indicating locations of folds and tabs. The folds are at locations that will enable the tabs to be located in the holes on the circuit board. The template is used to etch grooves and to etch tabs. This can be used to form a shielding assembly.
