Abstract:
A flexible interconnect arrangement (FIA) adapted to transmit low voltage differential signals along a length of the FIA and inhibit electromagnetic radiation generated as the signals travel along the length of the FIA, the FIA comprising:a conductive layer extending parallel to a plane along the length of the FIA, an upper insulative layer and a lower insulative layer respectively above and below the conductive layer, and an upper shield layer and lower shield layer respectively above and below the upper insulative layer and the lower insulative layer, said layers forming at least first and second opposing sides orthogonal to the plane of the conductive layer; and at least two conductive shield members adapted to face the respective first and second opposing sides of said layers and to electrically connect the upper shield layer and the lower shield layer on each opposing side, respectively, wherein the conductive shield members and the shield layers are adapted to inhibit EMI about the length of the FIA.
