Abstract

A method for attaching a shield (102) to a an electronic assembly (116) having a heat sink (110) includes applying solder on the inner walls (104) of the shield (102). Next, the shield (102) is placed over the electronic assembly (116) such that the electronic assembly (116) is covered by the shield (102) and the shield (102) is in mechanical contact with the heat sink (110). Then, the shield (102) and heat sink (110) are heated so that the solder on the inner walls (104) of shield (102) flows and solders the shield (102) to the heat sink (110).
