Does anyone have information on reflowable RF shields?
Specifically, I
am looking for the number and size of holes required in the
shield to
allow reflow of components underneath.

Mike,
We are doing some reflow soldered RF shielding in our
product. The shields we are using are 2 piece units
consisting of a fence and a lid. the fences are reflowed with
the components, then the top edge of the fence is folded in
and a flat lid is hand soldered over the top. This may not be
the most efficient way to handle this for mass production but
it works for our volume (50-100 units per month).
