Abstract
A filter assembly comprised of a dielectric filter and a shield positioned about the dielectric filter. The dielectric filter may be surface-mounted upon a circuit board and includes at least one notch formed to extend along a side face surface thereof. The shield is integrally formed of two sheets of an electromagnetic wave-absorptive material interconnected by a shoulder forming a right angle to fit about two sides of the dielectric filter. At least one projecting prong, corresponding in number and position with the at least one notch of the dielectric filter, extends beyond an end surface of one of the sheets of the shield to interfittingly engage with a corresponding notch formed on the filter. The shield is positioned about the dielectric filter prior to tuning of the filter, and openings are formed to extend through the shield to permit access to the dielectric filter to permit tuning thereof once the shield is positioned thereabout.
