An RF shield 400 may be soldered or other mechanically fastened to a PCB 120 or otherwise. Such soldering/fastening may result in a given second heat transfer rate Q?RFS-2 and/or a given second heat flux or thermal flux FRFS-2 transfer from a heat source 122, to the RF shield 400, to the PCB 120, and to one or more other components 124 on the PCB 120 or elsewhere within the device 132 and/or to a cover of the device 132. Accordingly, it is to be appreciated that known heat isolation components and/or techniques may be used to minimize, reduce, prevent or otherwise control transfer of heat from a heat source 122, via the RF shield 400, to the PCB 120 and elsewhere.
An RF shield 400 may be electrically grounded. An RF shield 400 may encompass a heat source 122 and/or other components of a device to operate as a Faraday cage, providing isolation of a given component of a device from RF signals and/or EMI.
