ABSTRACT:
An electromagnetic (EM) shielding assembly includes an electrically conductive shielding portion and one or more electrically conductive protrusions for engaging with respective conductive apertures in a circuit board. The electrically conductive protrusions can be in electrical communication with the EM shielding portion. The protrusions can enable the EM shielding assembly to be attached to a circuit board in a computer system while also providing an electrical connection to logical ground. Further components, for example a heat sink that may be in electrical communication with the EM shielding portion, may thereby also be connected to logical ground.
