ABSTRACT:
Shielded stripline multi-lead flex cable is successfully attached to solder pads on a circuit board by applying a hot bar to the backside of the cable placed in abuttment with the associated solder pads. The hot bar generates sufficient heat to reflow pretinned cable elements and the corresponding solder pads of the circuit board. An attachment is attained in which the outer ground plane metal layer of the cable covers the signal lines and the other ground plane metal layer is attached adjacent those signal lines, producing effective RF shielding of the signal leads and minimizing introduction of inductance into the ground current circuit. A novel cable end configuration and cable termination is disclosed to implement the attaching procedure.
