270 Madison Avenue, New York, NY 10016. Any well written text on 
EMI control should cover the design of shielded enclosures. 
Components of the Shield Design 
To be effective, the shield design must incorporate: 
 
A highly conductive shielded enclosure that encapsulates all of 
the active circuitry. This can be constructed of sheet metal or 
plated/sprayed plastic. 
 
Decoupling on all signals exiting the enclosure 
 
Control of aperture sizes in the shield to less than l/10 of the 
frequency of interest. This would apply to keyboard and display 
apertures in the enclosure. Testing of aperture radiation at the 
frequencies of interest may prove larger apertures are 
acceptable to the particular scenario. 
Benefits of the Shielding Approach 
Emissions reduction can be achieved using shielding source reduction 
techniques, such as decoupling, or PCB layout and grounding, or a 
combination of the two. Once a shield is in place, any revisions to 
product circuitry have no effect on emissions levels. If a circuit level 
approach is used to control the emissions, a change in circuitry can 
bring a new unknown to the emissions performance. 
Alternate EMI Reduction Methods 
Although shielding is the brute-force method of reducing emission 
levels, other methods are available, such as: 
 
PCB layout modification using ground layers adjacent to high 
speed layers 
 
Capacitive or filter decoupling 
 
Redistribution of module interconnects 
 
Clock Pulling 
Clock Pulling 
Clock pulling is effective when the emission sources are narrowband. 
To implement clock pulling, a method must be devised for the modem 
to tell the host/terminal it is having difficulty receiving. Devising such 
a method is admittedly very difficult. The host/terminal provides 
“pulling” of its internal emission source, which is identified as a 
potential problem. 
If this source is the cause of the interference, the pulling or slight shift 
of the source frequency moves the harmonic energy out of the receive 
channel. This is an inexpensive way of solving the problem, as no 
special shielding or decoupling is required. 
The limitations of the clock pulling method are: 
 
Computing devices have many more than one source
