Abstract

A remote control device (100) includes an insulated housing (2, 3) including an outer surface (20, 30) plated with a conductive material for providing a suppression of EMI, an inner surface (21, 31), and a receiving space (4) defined by the outer surface and the inner surface, a printed circuit board (51) received in the receiving space, and including at least a first conductive pad (511), and a second conductive pad electrically connected to the first conductive pad by conductive trace, a cable including at least one grounding conductor electrically connected to the second conductive pad, grounding means (22) electrically connected to the conductive material and the first conductive pad for providing a sheath for ESD generated on the remote control device.
