Abstract

A Faraday cage is provided for EMI/RFI shielding which includes a substrate having an electrical ground; at least one electronic component electrically connected to the substrate; a conductive housing; and an electrically conductive adhesive. The electrically conductive adhesive may be defined by a substrate having numerous passageways through the substrate. The passageways are defined by a plurality of walls of the material making up the substrate. The walls are covered with a layer of conductive metal. The passageways are filled with a non-conductive adhesive resin. The conductive housing is adhesively electrically mounted to the electrical ground of the substrate, over the electronic component, to shield electromagnetic and radio frequency interference.
