Abstract
Electromagnetic shielding devices are provided with walls having a pair of opposing, generally parallel side faces that terminate at a tapered end portion. Each tapered end portion is configured to be surface mounted to a respective conductive portion (e.g., mounting pad) of an electronic substrate via a pair of solder fillets. The tapered end portion of each wall includes a pair of elongate end faces symmetrical about a plane that is generally parallel to, and equidistant between, the wall side faces. The end faces define a pair of elongated cavities with respect to a PCB that are configured to receive the solder fillets.
