PC Board Level Shields

Board level shields provide isolation of board level components, minimizes crosstalk and susceptibility without impacting system speed. Board level shielding products include the traditional metal enclosures of two piece, single piece, EZ Peel and our new combo products. The combo products incorporate a stamped metal housing and an over-molded electrically conductive elastomer that is designed to meet the specific needs of your application.

Laird Technologies is well-known for delivering quick engineering design assistance, rapid prototyping, in-house tool design, automated packaging and top quality systems.
