Abstract
Methods and apparatus for adding additional circuitry (19) to a circuit board (11) having a radiation shield (14) associated therewith include the additional circuitry (19) mounted onto a flex circuit (21) which in turn is mounted on the radiation shield (14). A conductor (32) containing portion (24) of the flex circuit (21) extends therefrom and is routed around and through a cutout (18) in the bottom surface of the radiation shield (14). The conductor (32) is connected to the printed circuit board (11) at the location of the cutout (18) in the radiation shield (14).
