Abstract
An electronic signal filter is provided, including a first filter housing having a filter cavity, a circuit board having a slot positioned within the filter cavity, and a ground clip. The ground clip includes a slot-retaining portion positioned within and in contact with an inner edge of the circuit board slot, at least one grounding arm engaged in solderless grounding contact with an inner surface of the filter cavity, and at least one grounding leg. Upon assembly, an end portion of a distal end of the slot-retaining portion intimately contacts a portion of the grounding leg interposed between the filter housing and the circuit board to achieve secure ground contact between the circuit board and the filter housing in a solderless manner.
