GORE-SHIELD® SMT Compatible Grounding Pads
 GORE-SHIELD® SMT Grounding Pads are electrically conductive pads that provide reliable contact points on a printed circuit board. They are comprised of a conformable electrically conductive gasket material bonded to a thin, solderable metal support layer via an electrically conductive adhesive. The gasket material consists of a polytetrafluroethylene (PTFE) matrix loaded with highly conductive nickel-based particles.
GORE-SHIELD® SMT Grounding Pads are rectangular in shape and available in a variety of standard lengths and widths so that they can be easily confi gured on PCB ground traces in whatever patterns and locations the design requires. GORE-SHIELD® SMT Grounding Pads are packaged in EIA-standard tape-and-reel for automated placement and reflow soldering via standard surface mount technology and processes.
Benefits
- Available in standard sizes, off-the-shelf
- Configurable in any pattern to be placed in any location
- Easily incorporated into existing designs to address issues that appear late in the design cycle, eliminating the need for redesign
- Compatible with standard and lead-free solder reflow
- Requires no special equipment; Implemented with existing pick-and-place and reflow soldering technologies and processes
- Demonstrated pick-and-place rates of 8-10 parts/second
- Low cost and high performance in comparison with other technologies
Proven Applications
Applications for GORE-SHIELD® SMT Grounding Pads include:
- RF Grounding
