Claim Text:
1. An electronic device, comprising: a circuit board comprising: a first major surface; a second major surface opposed to the first major surface; and a first side surface extending between the first major surface and the second major surface, the first side surface having a first set of grounding contacts and a second set of grounding contacts, wherein at least one grounding contact of the second set of grounding contacts is positioned between two adjacent grounding contacts of the first set of grounding contacts; a first electronic component electrically coupled to the first major surface of the circuit board; a second electronic component electrically coupled to the second major surface of the circuit board; a first shield comprising a first planar portion and a first plurality of tabs extending from the first planar portion, wherein the first planar portion is positioned over the first electronic component and is substantially parallel to the first major surface, and wherein each of the first plurality of tabs is coupled to the first side surface and electrically coupled to a respective grounding contact of the first set of grounding contacts; and a second shield comprising a second planar portion and a second plurality of tabs extending from the second planar portion, wherein the second planar portion is positioned over the second electronic component and is substantially parallel to the second major surface, and wherein each of the second plurality of tabs is coupled to the first side surface and electrically coupled to a respective grounding contact of the second set of grounding contacts.
