Abstract

According to various aspects, exemplary embodiments are provided of clips that may be compatible with surface mount technology. The clips may be surface mountable to a substrate for allowing repeated releasable attachment and detachment of a shielding structure thereto. In one exemplary embodiment, a clip generally includes a base member having generally opposed first and second side edge portions. Two or more arms extend generally upwardly in a first direction from the base member. The clip also includes a generally flat pick-up surface configured to enable the clip to be picked up by a head associated with pick-and-place equipment.
