Abstract

A shielding housing for electrically shielding at least one component on a printed circuit board includes a layer of a non-shielding material having at least one cavity for receiving the component. An elastic gasket is provided on the rim of the cavity. A layer of an electrically shielding material covers the gasket as well as one or both surfaces of the layer of a non-shielding material. In operation, the shielding housing is pressed with its gasket against a conductor located on the printed circuit board around the component to be shielded.
