1. An electronic cartridges comprising:
- a substrate;
an integrated circuit package mounted to said substrate;
an electrically conductive cover that at least partially encloses said integrated circuit package; and
,a C-shaped clip that is surface mounted to said substrate and electrically couples said cover to said substrate, said C-shaped clip has a base section that engages said cover and extends at an oblique angle from a mount section mounted to said substrate.

Abstract
An electronic cartridge which includes a cover that is electrically coupled to a substrate by a clip. An integrated circuit package is mounted to the substrate and at least partially enclosed by the cover. The clips and cover may be connected to a ground plane of the substrate. The cover and substrate may create a "shield" about the integrated circuit package so that any electro-magnetic field that flows from the package is grounded to the substrate.
