Abstract:
A shielding assembly is disclosed, the assembly including at least a board level shield and a heat sink. The assembly may include a board level shield that includes both a lid and a fence, and may also include a thermal interface material, where the assembly may be mounted on a printed circuit board to provide both EMI shielding and thermal management of heat-generating electronic components or heat sources on the circuit board. The heat sink includes at least one pin, and the shield includes at least one complementary perforation relative to the pin, such that an assembled device of the disclosure provides both EMI shielding and thermal management while permitting the transfer of thermal energy via the heat sink pin through the board level shield perforation.

Claim (Index 1):
A shielding assembly comprising:\n a heat sink including a top, a bottom, and sides; a board level shield including a fence and a lid, the fence including a perimeter of material around the sides of the heat sink, and the lid including a piece of material having a shape complementary to the perimeter of the fence, the lid being attachable to the fence to substantially enclose the top of the heat sink; wherein:\n the lid includes at least one perforation; \n the heat sink includes a thermally conductive material having at least one pin on the top of the heat sink, where the at least one pin is a protrusion of the thermally conductive material from the heat sink; and \n the at least one pin and the at least one perforation are complementary in shape such that when the lid is attached to the fence, the at least one pin at least partially protrudes through the at least one perforation.
