The tapes are available in copper, aluminum, or tinned copper foil backed with Chomerics’ highly conductive pressure-sensitive adhesive*. Typical properties are shown in Table 1 on the next page, and reliability data appears in Table * Recognized Under the Component Program of Underwriters Laboratories, Inc. CHO-FAB tape is a corrosion resistant nickel-plated cloth coated with Chomerics’ highly conductive pressure-sensitive adhesive*. CHO-FAB tape is extremely strong and lightweight, and has excellent conformability/wrapability to enhance shielding performance and appearance. Use of corrosion resistant nickelplated cloth and Chomerics’ superior metal-particle-filled conductive adhesive technology produces a tape used in a wide variety of EMI shielding and grounding applications. Typical properties are shown in Table 1 on the next page. Ordering Procedure Refer to Tables 2 and 3. All CHOFOIL and CHO-FAB tapes are available in standard 36 yard (32.9 m) rolls or die-cut custom configurations. Call Chomerics’ Applications Engineering Department for assistance with a custom configuration. 4 on page 148. CHO-FOIL copper tape is available with a non-conductive adhesive for applications requiring surface conductivity only. An embossed version of CHO-FOIL copper tape is also available, for a more attractive appearance up to 6 inches (152 mm) wide. Standard length rolls and die-cut custom shapes can be ordered. ¡ Provide a low impedance connection between a braided cable shield and the metal connector backshell in molded cables. An effective EMI shielded assembly can be achieved without soldering the tape to the braid or backshell ¡ EMI radiation measurement troubleshooting, using CHOFOIL tape to shield ventilation slots or seam gaps ¡ Provide electrical continuity in seams of EMI shielded rooms and electronic enclosures ¡ Supply electrical contact to surfaces that can’t be soldered to, such as conductive plastic or aluminum ¡ EMI shield for cables by wrapping the tape around the cable. An overlap is recommended ¡ ESD shielding ¡ Provide corrosion-resistant ground contact points ¡ Fabric tape available where weight and flexibility are important, such as for wrapping cables CHO-FOIL EMI Shielding Tape with Conductive Adhesive (Copper, Aluminum or Tinned Copper) CHO-FAB EMI Shielding Fabric Tape with Conductive Adhesive Typical Applications for CHO-FOIL and CHO-FAB EMI Shielding Tapes LAMINATES & GROUNDING PRODUCTS CHO-FOIL® & CHO-FABTM Shielding Tapes Chofab is available in standard (CFT) and rip-stop (CRS) nylon fabric forms. Both fabrics use nickel / silver plating to provide excellent electrical and corrosion resistance properties.
