Abstract:
1. A method for electrically interconnecting a first circuit board and a second circuit board, the first circuit board having a first signal conducting means formed therein, the second circuit board having a second signal conducting means formed therein, the first signal conducting means being shielded by a first electrically conductive shield, the second signal conducting means being shielded by a second electrically conductive shield, the method comprising the steps of: forming a first opening in the first electrically conductive shield so as to expose the first signal conducting means in the first circuit board; forming a second opening in the second electrically conductive shield so as to expose the second signal conducting means in the second circuit board; applying an electrically conductive material around at least one of the first and second openings and within at least one of the first and second openings; and securing the first circuit board and the second circuit board such that the first opening and the second opening are aligned and the first signal conducting means is electrically interconnected to the second signal conducting means.
