RFI/EMI Shielding-Solid Metal or Metalized Textiles?
RFI/EMI Shielding-Solid Metal or Metalized Textiles? When it comes to RFI/EMI shielding, the decision between solid metal and metalized textiles hinges on various factors that cater to specific application needs. Solid metal sheets, like copper, aluminum, and stainless steel boast higher Shielding Effectiveness (SE). This makes them ideal in applications where comprehensive electromagnetic interference (EMI) is crucial. Their rigid composition also provides structural support, suitable for aerospace and military contexts which require durability. RFI/EMI Shielding-Solid Metal or Metalized Textiles? On the...
