Abstract
A method and structures are provided for implementing press-lock electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) gaskets. A gasket includes a plurality of fasteners received through a plurality of corresponding mounting apertures in a perforated support surface for precise placement, and retention without adhesives. The corresponding mounting apertures have a diameter smaller than 1/20th of a wavelength of the highest frequency to be suppressed to remain independent of the shielding required. The gasket defines a cavity receiving compliant foam, and includes an absorber.
