Abstract
A method of signal shielding in X-ray detectors and X-ray detectors using such a method are disclosed herein. In one embodiment, the X-ray detector has a set of detector elements placed on a substrate, and the shielding method includes providing a conductive shield above the data lines which carry the output signals of the detector elements. In another embodiment, the X-ray detector has a set of detector elements place on a substrate, and the method of signal shielding includes providing data lines on a flex layer that'"'"'s bonded to a substrate, placing a conductive shield above the data lines, placing a flex shield on an interior surface of the flex layer, and conducting electromagnetic noise through the conductive shield and the flex shield.
