GORE-SHIELD® SMT Compatible Grounding Pads


Surface Mount (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.



SMT Compatible

  • Conductive foams and filled tapes
  • Adhesive backed with conductive PSA
  • Die-cut options in many forms through conversion network
  • High shielding effectiveness
  • Low DC resistance
  • Ideal for component to component and component to PCB grounding

Benefits

  • Available in standard sizes
  • Configurable in any pattern to be placed in any location
  • Compatible with standard and lead-free solder reflow
  • Demonstrated pick-and-place rates of 8-10 parts/second
  • Low cost and high performance in comparison with other technologies
