A method for fabricating a radio-frequency (RF) module is disclosed, the method including forming or providing a first assembly that includes a packaging substrate and an RF component mounted thereon, the first assembly further including one or more shielding-wirebonds formed relative to the RF component, forming an overmold over the packaging substrate to substantially encapsulate the RF component and the one or more shielding-wirebonds, the overmold formed by compression molding, and forming a conductive layer on an upper surface of the overmold such that the conductive layer is in electrical contact with some or all of the shielding-wirebonds.

Shielded module having compression overmold

Systems and methods disclose maintaining paint thickness uniformity over the surface of a cap encapsulating at least one integrated circuit (IC) module on a panel of IC modules. The layer of conductive paint electrically couples with wirebonds on the panel to form at least part of an electromagnetic interference (EMI) or radio frequency interference (RFI) shield that attenuates EMI or RFI during operation of the IC module. Optimizing the spray nozzle diameter, fluid pressure, coaxial air pressure, spray heights, speeds, and spray pattern achieves paint thickness control. A uniform coating of conductive paint provides a more effective EMI or RFI shield during the operation of the IC modules.
