Abstract

In this article, a comprehensive review of important enclosure design issues in electronic systems is given. Use of various polymer-based materials and materials selection criteria based on mechanical and electrical properties are reviewed. Structural design models for electronic enclosures are presented. Shielding effectiveness of a printed wiring board and gasketing are examined. A cost-estimation technique is summarized and future trends are discussed.
